
Selectable Off--Attenuation control for seamless operation

Automatic gain adjustment as additional microphones are
activated

Defeatable “Last Mic Lock--On” circuit keeps at least one mi-
crophone on at all times—maintains acoustic ambiance and
prevents confusing background sound changes


dBm output

Linking capability for systems containing over 25 mixers
and over 100 microphones

LED indication of microphone channel mix levels, output
level, and limiter action

Automatic muting prevents annoying thumps and loud-
speaker damage when unit is turned on and off

Transformer--balanced inputs and outputs switchable to
line-- or microphone--level

Separate monitor input and tape output (aux--level) jacks

Front--panel headphone monitor jacks with level control

Front--panel auto--disable switch for manual operation

Operates from ac mains voltage or two 9 V batteries

Switchable 14 V and 48 V phantom powering for condenser
microphones

CONTROLS, CONNECTORS, INDICATORS
(See Figure 1)
1. Microphone Channel Gain Controls 1--4: At “0” position, mi-
crophone channel is removed from operation. Turning control
clockwise activates microphone channel and allows adjust-
ment of microphone level.
2. Input Normal Green LED: Should flicker with normal speech
levels.
3. Input High Red LED: Should flicker only on loud speech
peaks.
4. Flat (
)/Low--Cut ( ) Slide Switches: Provide low--fre-
quency rolloff to reduce undesirable low--frequency signals
such as wind noise.
5. MASTER Rotary Control: Determines the level of the com-
bined input signals at Mic/Line, Tape and Phones outputs.
PULL FOR 1 kHz TONE position activates 1 kHz tone oscilla-
tor (tone level is determined by Master control setting). Oscilla-
tor signal appears at all outputs. When oscillator is not in use,
knob should be pushed in.
6. PEAK/VU Output Level Meter: Meter function is selected by
adjacent PEAK/VU slide switch. In PEAK switch position, me-
ter indicates peak signal levels. In VU position, it indicates av-
erage signal levels, simulating a true VU meter.
7. BATTERY TEST Momentary Slide Switch: Operates in con-
junction with PEAK/VU Meter to indicate battery condi-
tion.With POWER switch on and switch in momentary--on po-
sition, new set of batteries lights all green LEDs. Number of
green LEDs lit indicates approximate battery life remaining
when alkaline batteries are used. NOTE: POWER LED begins
flashing when total battery supply voltage drops to 10 Vdc (one
green LED lit).
8. MANUAL/AUTO Slide Switch: Selects manual or automatic
microphone operating mode. In MANUAL position, unit oper-
ates as a conventional microphone mixer. In AUTO position,
unused microphones automatically turn off.
