CONNECTIONS OVERVIEW
Connections
Control 2802 features a plethora of connections on the rear
panel – as highlighted during the introduction of this manual.
All XLR balanced input and outputs are wired as Pin 1 (shield –
chassis / shield ground), Pin 2 (hot +ve) and Pin 3 (cold -ve).
Channel Strip Inputs and
Outputs
Therstinput,fromtoptobottom
is the MICROPHONE XLR INPUT
(female). The input impedance
of the microphone input is greater
than 2.5k Ohms and the maximum
input level is approximately +16dBu
(where 0dBu is referenced to
0.775Vrms).
The next connection is the channel
LINE INPUT, a balanced TRS with
an input impedance of >10k Ohms
and a maximum operating level
of +27dBu. This and all other TRS
jacksarewiredasTip(+ve),Ring
(-ve) and Sleeve (shield).
The INSERT SENDjackcomesnext,
a balanced TRS connector fed from
an impedance balanced output with
an output impedance of 150 Ohms
and a drive capability of +21dBu.
The INSERT RETURNTRSjackisalsofullybalancedwith
a >10k Ohm input impedance and a maximum input level of
+21dBu.
The remaining channel strip connections (DAW Inputs
and Direct Outputs) are found on two 8-way DB25 female
connectors at the bottom of the rear panel. These are wired to
Tascam DA-88 25-pin D-SUB standard (see below). The DAW
Inputs and Summing Inputs have a balanced input impedance
of >10k Ohms and a maximum input level of +27dBu.
The direct outputs have a balanced output impedance of
<75 Ohms and a maximum output level of +27dBu.
