Line Level Input - Mono Input Channels
Use these inputs to connect synthesizers, drum machines, effects processors or any line-level signal. The LINE
inputs have a nominal operating level of -40dB through - 10dB. TRS phone jacks (located in the center of the
Combination connector). Connector pin-out - Sleeve: Ground, Tip: Hot (+), Ring: Cold (-)
Microphone Input - Mono Input Channels
Use these inputs to connect Low Impedance microphones and low level signals from direct boxes. The MIC inputs
have a nominal operating level of –50dB through -20dB. The MIC inputs also feature +48V phantom power, allow
-
ing you to use condenser microphones. The Phantom Power switch located on the MDR6’s rear panel enables
phantom power on all the microphone inputs when set to the ON position. XLR Connector pin-out - Pin 1: Ground,
Pin 2: Hot (+), Pin 3: Cold (-)
Line Level Input - Stereo Input Channels
The MDR6’s stereo channels have a stereo LINE input with the Left Input located in the center of the Combie con-
nector and a separate 1/4-inch connector for the Right Input. You can connect the outputs from stereo devices
such as synthesizers, drum machines, effects processors or any stereo line-level signal. The LINE inputs have a nomi
-
nal operating level of -40dB through - 10dB. TRS phone jacks Connector pin-out - Sleeve: Ground, Tip: Hot (+), Ring:
Cold (-)
Microphone Input - Stereo Input Channels
The MDR6’s stereo channels have a utility MIC input located on the Combie connector. The utility MIC inputs have a
nominal operating level of –50dB through -20dB. The MIC inputs also feature +48V phantom power, allowing you
to use condenser microphones. The Phantom Power switch located on the MDR6’s rear panel enables phantom
power on all the microphone inputs when set to the ON position. XLR Connector pin-out - Pin 1: Ground, Pin 2: Hot
(+), Pin 3: Cold (-)

MDR6 Input and Output Connections
CHANNEL 1–6 MIC and LINE INPUTS
The MDR6’s six input channels each have a "Combie" (combination XLR & 1/4-inch) connector with a LINE level, Hi-Z
(High Impedance) input and a MIC level, Low-Z (Low Impedance) input. By using the GAIN control on channels 1 +
2 you can connect a variety of signal sources from microphones to line level devices such as synthesizers, and drum
machines. All the LINE and MIC inputs are balanced. The MIC inputs are compatible with microphones with output
impedances of 50~600 Ohms and the LINE inputs are compatible with line level devices of 600 Ohms.
NOTE: It is not possible to simultaneously use both the LINE and MIC inputs on the same channel (with the exception on
the stereo input channels). Use only one of the inputs for the appropriate source on each channel.
Following below is a detailed description of the MDR6’s input and output connectors.
