Functions Front 1 Input (IN) - Combo jack XLR/1/4 inch phono 2 Output (OUT) - Male XLR 3 Thru Jack* (THRU) - 1/4 inch *NOTE: The Thru Jack is to allow you to connect your guitar/bass/keyboards to the input of your amplifier. This will let you mic your amp and go direct to the A/D/DAW/Desk/board etc. Do NOT plug direct from the main outs of ANY amplifier to your REDDI. This will damage the unit and costly repairs will follow. 4 Level Control (LEVEL)- Level control knob is just that.
