Operating the S direct
Connecting to High Power Signals
The S direct provides the capability of tapping off the signals from amplifiers, such as the
output of a guitar amp or power amplifier. You can even use S direct to connect to the
speaker output of a consumer stereo system or boom box, for example, if you want to
sample some old records or cassette tapes.
NOTE:
Be sure that the LEVEL switch is set to the AMP position before connecting the sig-
nal from the output of any amplifier.
Follow the diagram and steps below to connect a powered output of a guitar amplifier to a
PA mixer.
• Connect the output of the guitar or bass to the guitar amp input.
• Set the Level switch to the SPK position.
• Using unshielded speaker cable, connect the guitar ampʼs speaker output to the S
directʼs INPUT.
• Using another unshielded speaker cable, connect S directʼs OUTPUT/LINK to the
input of the guitar amplifiers speaker.
• Connect S directʼs BALANCED OUTPUT to the input of main PA mixer.
NOTE:
To avoid
annoying pops
and clicks be sure
to mute (or turn
down the volume
control) of your
mixerʼs output
while connecting
the S direct, or
when switching
from battery to
phantom power.
