MICROPHONE/INSTRUMENT INPUT CONNECTIONS
After completing your main system connections, it is time to get your microphones and instruments connected
and ready for performing. Before you get started with your connections we recommend that you take the
following tips into consideration:
●When connecting instruments refrain from using low quality or worn cables as they can cause significant,
noise and loud pops, posing a threat to the system's speakers.
●Use caution when connecting a chain of multiple effects pedals as the output voltage may change and,
possibly overload the input channel.
The has one guitar (¼ ), one keyboard (¼ ) and two microphone (¼ /XLR) inputs.
1.To connect MICROPHONES via ¼ mic cables, connect the XLR-end of the cable into the MICROPHONE
until it locks into place and connect the ¼ plug into either the MIC 1 or 2 jack on the .
2.To connect MICROPHONES via XLR mic cables, attach the XLR “female” end of the cable into the
“male” three prong jack located at the base of your handheld MICROPHONE until it locks into place.
Then connect the XLR “male” jack at the other end of the cable into either of the BALANCED MIC 1 or 2
inputs on the rear panel. It should be obvious which sides of your XLR cable are male and
female as there is only one possible connection.
3.To connect a GUITAR, connect a ¼ instrument cable from the GUITAR's ¼ output to the
¼ GUITAR input.
4.To connect a KEYBOARD, connect a ¼ instrument cable from the KEYBOARD's ¼ output to the
¼ KEYBOARD input.
