® True to the Music OVERVIEW The Radial EXTC is a professional audio interface that takes a balanced line level signal and converts it to a guitar-level effects loop and then re-converts it back to a balanced line level for processing. In other words, you send in a balanced signal from your recorder, adjust the send level that drives the pedals. Set the return level from the pedals as it comes back and send the resulting sound to your recording system.
® True to the Music GETTING STARTED Before making any connections, start by turning off your audio system and turning all volume levels down. This helps protect equipment from turn-on transients that could damage loudspeakers and other sensitive equipment. We recommend using a power bar with an onoff switch as this makes it easy to turn on and off the 500 series rack, monitors and so on, using a single switch. Carefully plug the EXTC into your 500 series rack to avoid stress on the card-edge connector.
