Operation Manual

Setup
The MCD2 Pro can be quite useful on stage or in the studio for connecting
unbalanced audio sources or instruments with pickups. By utilizing the MCD2
Pro, the signal can be sent cleanly for long distances while benefiting from
the low noise and common mode rejection provided by the balanced low-level
output. The diagram following shows a typical hook-up for a DJ Controller/
Interface connected to a PA system.
• Set the volume controls of your audio system to the off position.
• Connect the stereo outputs of your DJ Controller/Interface or other audio
source to the Left and Right Input jacks of the MCD2 Pro.
• Connect the Left and Right BALANCED OUTPUT jacks to a pair of
microphone inputs of a mixer or other audio device.
• Pan the input channels of the mixer left and right.
• Raise the level of the audio system to the appropriate level.
• If you hear a hum or buzz set the GROUND LIFT switch to the LIFT
position.
• If you hear distortion, set the pad switch to the -12dB position. You may
need to adjust the input level of the mixer to make up for the attenuated
signal.
