(2. 8kg) OPERATION a) Verify proper voltage selection on the IEC style power connector for your location. Connect the AC cord to a grounded AC outlet. [. . . ] b) Connect Mics or balanced Line inputs to the XLR sockets. c) For Mic channels requiring phantom power (for condenser mics), move the DIP switch to the down position to activate phantom power for each XLR input. d) Set each Mic/Line switch as required for the type of input signal level. e) Connect stereo signal sources (CD, tape/MP3 player, etc. ) to input channels 1, 2, and 3 using RCA type unbalanced cables. f) To patch-in effects, using three shielded TS (unbalanced) cables, connect the Efx Loop Send jack to the input of the effects unit and the unit's stereo outputs to the Left and Right Efx Loop Return jacks. Once the MDC-2001 is connected to the main mixer, tape deck, computer interface, or power amplifier, apply a test signal, set the Efx Loop In/Out switch on the front panel to the IN position, and adjust the Efx Level control for the desired effects intensity. g) The Left and Right Efx Loop Return jacks may alternately be used as a stereo line input with its own level control and In/Out switch. h) Connect either the ¼" balanced Left and Right Main Output jacks or the RCA Record Out jacks to the input of the mixer, tape deck, computer, or power amplifier with the appropriate balanced or unbalanced, shielded cables.
