2. Check the voltage selector on the rear panel to make sure it is set for the
appropriate AC mains voltage in your area.
3. After making sure the main power switch is off, connect the AC power cord.
4. Connect output signal cables between
P-SOLO BALANCED OUT and the analog
line level input of your recorder, mixer, signal processor, etc. Use either the 1/4” TRS
or XLR balanced output connectors. See the section “Connections” for wiring details.
5. Connect a mic cable (and mic) to MIC IN connector on the rear panel.
6. Turn on the AC power.
7. Select 48V as appropriate for the microphone you are using.
8. Adjust GAIN control for adequate signal level as indicated on the
P-SOLO level
indicators or on the level indicators of the device to which it is connected.
If you’re using the DI for electric instrument input:
1. Connect your instrument cables to the INSTRUMENT (DI) connector on the front
panel. Any microphones plugged into MIC IN will be automatically de-selected
NOTE: DO NOT use TRS plugs for these inputs, as the DI will not function correctly.
