Very low noise and high common mode rejection ratio. Utilizes discrete hybrid circuitry as in high end mixing consoles Full 3 way level / clip indicator helps set optimum gain for best headroom and signal to noise ratio Phase reverse switch Helps control acoustic feedback Channel effects loop with send and return jacks. Can be used as independent signal output or as insertion point for external signal Mute switch allows complete shut off of rig Tuner output (unaffected by mute switch) allows quiet tuning Stereo input jack allows access to both channels with one stereo cable External wall mount power supply allows AC operation High quality components. Extremely low noise and distortion, audiophile quality sound Mic stand adapter available as an option Useful for on-stage applications that use a microphone stand. Allows the performer to have full access to the front panel while facing the audience Input Two Channel Preamp +15 volt phantom power Two Ultra-High impedance 10 Meg Ohm stereo 1/4" input jacks Two XLR input jacks with 40dB of gain and switchable 20dB pad Output Main XLR output Two post EQ balanced XLR outputs Single-ended buffered output with very low output impedance Master Effects signal output (line level) Two 1/4" stereo insertion points Tuner / auxiliary output Phase switch.
