4. Connection Overview
The following connections are available on the rear panel of the Qu mixer. The Qu-16 is shown here.
4.1 Local Input Connections
Mono Line Input
– Balanced ¼” TRS (Tip, Ring,
Sleeve) jack input for plugging in line level signals such as
multitrack players and radio mic receivers. To work with
unbalanced sources use a mono jack or link ring to sleeve
within the TRS stereo jack.
Use DI boxes plugged into the Mic input for high
impedance, low level sources such as acoustic instrument
pickups.
Microphone Input
– Balanced XLR input for plugging
in a low level source such as a microphone or DI box. 48V
can be switched to the socket for condenser mics and active
DI boxes that require phantom power.
Note - To avoid loud thumps, mute the channel before
plugging in cables or switching 48V on or off.
Stereo Line Input
– ST1 and ST2 balanced ¼” TRS
(Tip, Ring, Sleeve) jack inputs for plugging in line level
stereo sources such as CD players. The L input normals
(switches) through the R input so that you can work with a
mono source by plugging into just the L/M input.
To work with RCA phono connections use jack to RCA
converter plugs.
Talkback Input
– Dedicated balanced XLR input for
plugging in a microphone to route to the mixes for the
engineer to talk to the performers on stage. Phantom power
can be switched to the socket for condenser microphones.
