1 Audio Output XLR: To connect a balanced cable with XLR connector (Yes,
we forgot to tell you that although your MOD-16 system is wireless, you
still need to connect the receiver to your Mixing Desk and to a wall plug!)
2 Audio Output Jack: To be used with an unbalanced cable and standard
1/4" mono jack.
3 DC Input: You can connect the supplied Adapter to this socket.
4 Squelch: The job of a squelch circuit is to reduce audible noise.
5 LOW-MID-HIGH Key: By pressing this key you can change the Audio
Output level of your transmitter:
LOW = -12dB
MID = -6dB
HI = 0dB

8 Volume Control: This knob sets the audio signal level outputted through
the balanced and unbalanced output jacks on the rear panel. Turn the knob
clockwise fully for the max volume, and turn the knob counterclockwise fully
for the min volume.
9 Antenna Input Sockets: Includes 2 antennas to secure the Diversity function.
For optimal radio reception antennas should be placed vertically. You can
fold the antennas inward for convenience of transportation.
microphone capsules for their wireless systems but this flexibility is far behind
the wide choice of tones or "models", as we call them at LTO. In fact, a
specific model of wireless microphone may be used by a male vocalist or
female vocalist during a live performance, by a Priest in a church service,
by a speaker during a seminar, by and aerobics teacher during a training
lesson, by a DJ, by a choir, by an announcer, by an auction director, we
could go on and on forever with endless applications.
It is now evident that each one of these users would benefit from a different
tone or "model". But even the same user would like to get a different voicing
or "model" depending on the style he is singing. What model serves the music
best? It's fair to say that it will be different whether he's singing Rock, Blues,
or Folk and, of course can also change from song to song. It is unlikely to buy
several different microphone capsules in order to get different tone or "model"
depending of the kind of use of performance. This would be unpractical, since
it would be impossible to change a microphone capsule during a performance,
not to mention the cost involved.
LTO has therefore created and integrated in some of its wireless receivers a
range of MODELS. Using these 16 different MODELS the user can select
different sound patterns simply with the turn of one knob. There are preset
MODELS for male and female Vocalists, DJ, Speakers, Announcers, and more.
In a few words, with the LTO modelling technology applied to wireless systems,
the User can "fine tune" the sound of his microphone in 16 different ways.

Here is a List and description of the MODELS available on the LTO Receivers:
MODEL 1: FLAT- In this position the Modeller is in bypass mode. The LTO
Modeller is not adding any character to the Audio Output
MODEL 2: CONFERENCE- To be used during Meetings. Especially made for
speech and to avoid the typical boominess of many wireless microphones used
for such purpose.
MODEL 3: BROADCAST- This Model will add a certain character to the signal.
It is typical of the Male Announcers through a solid state Transmitter.
MODEL 4: WARMTH- Good for Lead Vocalist Male and Female.
It will make the Male voice warmer and the Female voice more body.
