Input/output patching
Changing the input patching
LS9-16/32 Owner’s Manual
When the LS9 is in the initial state, the following input ports (jacks / internal ports) are patched to
each input channel.
However, the above patching can be modified as needed.
Here’s how to change the patching of each input channel.
1
Press the [HOME] key to access the
SELECTED CH VIEW screen, and use the
[SEL] keys to select an input channel.
1 Channel number / Channel name
B HA popup button
C Port select popup button
2
Move the cursor to the HA popup button in
the screen, and press the [ENTER] key.
The HA/PATCH popup window will appear. In this
popup window, you can view the input port and name
selected for each input channel, turn the phantom
power on/off, adjust the gain, and switch between nor-
mal/reversed phase, in groups of eight channels.
1 Channel number
This is the number of the input channel.
B Channel name
This is the name of the input channel.
C Port select popup button
This button selects the input port assigned to the chan-
nel. The currently selected input port is shown.
D +48V button
This button switches the phantom power on (red) or
off (black) for the head amp assigned to that channel.
E GAIN knob
This indicates the amount of gain for the head amp
assigned to that channel. Move the cursor to the knob
and use the dial or the [DEC]/[INC] keys to adjust the
setting. The level meter located immediately to the
right of the knob shows the input level of the corre-
sponding port.
F ø (phase) button
This button switches the head amp assigned to that
channel between normal phase (black) and reverse
phase (orange).

• The PAD will be internally switched on or off when the HA
gain is adjusted between -14 dB and -13 dB. Keep in mind
that noise may be generated if there is a difference between
the Hot and Cold output impedance of the external device
connected to the INPUT connector when using phantom
power.
