REAR PANEL DESCRIPTION
IMPORTANT NOTE
CHASSIS GROUNDING
Units with outboard power supplies do not ground the chassis through the line cord. Make sure that these units are grounded
either to another chassis which is earth grounded, or directly to the grounding screw on an AC outlet cover by means of a wire con-
nected to the chassis grounding screw.
1 INPUTS 1 through 4 feature MIC-level XLR and LINE-level ¼" TRS connectors. Use only one of these Inputs for each channel.
Both Inputs are balanced. A mono ¼" TS plug may be inserted into the LINE input if necessary, but better results come from a
balanced TRS plug. See the RaneNote, “Sound System Interconnection” included with this manual.
2 PHANTOM POWER switch provides 15 volts to condenser microphones plugged in the MIC Input.
3 GAIN trim control sets the inital gain of the Input so the front panel LEVEL control has the most latitude without distortion.
When the XLR MIC Input is used, the range of the GAIN is 12 to 50 dB and Phantom Power may be selected. When the TRS
LINE Input is used, the range of the GAIN is 0 to 12 dB and Phantom Power is disabled.
4 Remote POWER supply input and chassis ground screw. The unit is supplied from the factory with an RS 1 remote power
supply suitable for connection to this input jack. The power requirements call for an 18 volt AC center-tapped transformer only.
This is not a telephone jack. Never use a power supply with your unit other than the one supplied or a replacement approved by Rane
Corporation. Using any other type of supply may damage the unit and void the warranty. The #6-32 screw above can be used for
chassis grounding. See the CHASSIS GROUNDING note below.
5 ¼" TRS and XLR Balanced OUTPUT jacks are provided for convenience. Both connectors may be used simulaneously.
6 OUTPUT LINE / MIC switch changes both balanced XLR and ¼" TRS Outputs to either LINE-level or MIC-level. Many
DJ mixers have microphone engage and talk-over functions associated with the microphone inputs. By connecting the MLM 42
directly to one of these microphone inputs, you are able to take advantage of these features.
7 A & B Unbalanced RCA Outputs provide connection to line-level inputs. The Outputs of A and B are identical.
8 EFFECTS SEND & RETURN loop connects external effects processors or expands to other mixers. See page Manual-4.
