Both inputs are electronically balanced, and are located on the rear connector panel. The PEAK LED (2) monitors two points in the audio path: pre-insert point and post-EQ. The 48V switch (3) applies 48V phantom power to the input XLR. An adjacent LED indicates when the phantom power is on. Don't connect microphones with the phantom power switched on. Only switch the phantom power on or off with the output fader down. [. . . ] Any or all of these sources may be selected at any one time. The monitor signals (L & R) are passed to the monitor L & R outputs via the C/ROOM level pot (12), and to the headphones socket via the H/PHONES pot (13). The monitor L & R signals can be mono summed using the MONO switch (14). The L & R 12-segment meters (15) indicate the level of the monitored signal, as selected by the monitor source select switches. [. . . ]
