Fig. 4.1: ULTRALINK PRO front panel

The BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO has six identical channels. Each channel is equipped with two rotary

controls, one button and eight LEDs. Moreover there is a main section with two rotary controls, one button and

eight LEDs.

1

The MAIN INPUT LEVEL control sets the main input gain, before the signal reaches the input bus. In

SPLIT mode, the MAIN INPUT LEVEL control determines the common output level for all mono outputs.

2

The 4-digit INPUT LEVEL meter informs you about the input level of the main input within a range from

-24 to +6 dB.

3

By depressing the MAIN LINK switch you can route the MAIN INPUT signal to the MAIN OUT. This way

it is possible to route a maximum of eight input channels to the main mix.

4

The MAIN OUTPUT LEVEL control adjusts the output level applied to the main outputs. The levels

present at the six mono outputs are not affected. Summing the signal levels of several mono channels

can overload the main output stage. The MAIN OUTPUT LEVEL control is therefore used to adjust the

overall output level.

5

The 4-digit OUTPUT LEVEL meter informs you about the output level of the main input within a range

from -24 to +6 dB.

6

This SPLIT/MIX switch sets the respective channel to SPLITTER or MIXER mode.

7

The LEVEL control determines the signal level of the individual channels. In SPLIT mode, the LEVEL

control sets the output level of the mono channels. In MIX mode, however, it controls the amount of the

mono channel's input signal feeding into the main output section; at the same time, the level of the mono

channel can be determined, which—owing to the maximum gain of +15 dB—allows for converting, e.g.,

home recording levels (-10 dBV) into studio levels (+4 dBu).

8

The 8-digit OUTPUT LEVEL meter informs you about the output level of each channel within a range

from -24 to +18 dB.
