Input section
mic/line gain control knob: Gives a continuously
variable input gain control depending upon the input
selected, where:
Mic: +15dB to +70dB gain
Mic (PAD enabled): -10dB to +45dB
PAD switch: line/padThe switch provides 25dB of
attenuation to the input signal and allows the
connection of high output microphones or line level
signals. If using the XL42's optional transformer-
coupled input, the pad greatly reduces the risk of
saturation at very low frequencies.
+48 switch: Phantom power +48V switch
allows connection of devices that require
phantom power, such as, condenser
microphones, direct inject (DI) boxes etc.
Ø switch: Phase switch inverts the input
signal by applying a 180° phase shift.
