MIXPAD 4 Main Section
1: Tape/CD inputs (L, R) - Use this set of dual RCA jacks to connect
the outputs of a tape or CD player to the MIXPAD 4. Signal connected
here appears at the stereo channel (channels 3 and 4) and is mixed at
unity gain with any line input signal connected to channel 3/4.
2: Phantom Power switches (Ch 1, Ch 2) - When pressed in, 18 volts
of phantom power is delivered to pins 2 and 3 of the XLR mic connector
of the selected channel. WARNING: Only use this switch with the
MIXPAD 4 powered down. Before turning phantom power on, be sure
to disconnect all non-microphone signal sources (such as passive direct
injection boxes) from the XLR mic jacks. Although phantom power will
have no adverse affect on connected dynamic microphones, it should
be used only when one or more condenser microphones are connected
to the MIXPAD 4. Refer to the owners manual of your microphone
or active direct injection (DI) box to determine whether or not it
requires 18 volts of phantom power—Samson cannot assume
responsibility if you damage a mic or DI box by incorrectly
applying phantom power from the MIXPAD 4. If you’re not
completely certain that one or more connected mics or active DI boxes
require 18 volts phantom power, leave this switch off (its out position).
