1. MIC-XLR / LINE-JACK combo input (ch. 1 ÷ 8)
This is a female MIC-XLR / LINE-JACK combo connector that accepts a balanced microphone XLR input from
almost any type of microphone, or a balanced or unbalanced line level JACK input signal from almost any line
source.
The MIC-XLR input is wired as follows:
Pin 1 = shield or ground
Pin 2 = + positive or "hot"
Pin 3 = - negative or "cold"
The LINE-JACK input is wired as follows:
Tip = + positive or "hot"
Ring = - negative or "cold"
Sleeve = shield or ground
When connecting an unbalanced signal, wire them as follows:
Pin2 / Tip = + positive or "hot"
Pin 1-3 / Sleeve = shield or ground
