1.Power Button: Press this button to power the AIR 192|14 on or off. The Power LED below this button lights up when the unit is powered on.
2.Input Gain: Adjusts the input's gain level. Set this knob so the corresponding LED Meter (located below the knob) displays a "healthy" level (yellow LED is lit) during performance—but not so high that the meter frequently "clips" or peaks (red LED is lit), causing distortion in the audio.
3.LED Meters (Inputs 1–6): Indicates the input signal level from the Combo Inputs and Instrument Inputs.

4.LED Meters (Inputs 7–8): Indicates the input signal level from the Line Inputs. These LEDs are green when a signal above -20 dBFS is present, and turn red when the signal "clips" or peaks.
5.+48 V (Phantom Power) Switches: These switches activate and deactivate phantom power for Combo Inputs 1–2 or 3–4. When activated, phantom power supplies +48 volts to the selected inputs. Please note that most dynamic microphones and ribbon microphones do not require phantom power, while most condenser microphones do. Consult your microphone's documentation to find out whether it needs phantom power.
6.Monitor Level: Adjusts the output volume of Main Outputs, which should be connected to your powered monitors or amplifier system.
7.Monitor Mix: Adjusts the mix of the audio signal from your inputs (Direct) and the audio output of your computer (USB) that will be sent to the Main Outputs and Headphone Outputs.
Note: When set to Direct, the left channel will be a sum of Inputs 1, 3, 5, and 7 and the right channel will be a sum of Inputs 2, 4, 6, and 8. You can sum these left and right channels (to hear all inputs as a single summed mono signal) by putting the Direct Monitor button in its depressed position.
This knob is useful for dealing with "latency" when you are recording in your DAW. Latency is a delay in sound that may occur between the incoming sound (playing your instrument, singing, etc.) and outgoing sound (when you hear it in the DAW).
Latency is often the result of the "buffer size" setting, which is usually located in your DAW’s Preferences, Options, or Device Setup menu. Higher buffer sizes generally result in higher latency. In some cases, lower buffer size settings can consume a lot of your computer’s CPU and cause audio glitches. To prevent these audio glitches, you will need to use a higher buffer setting, and this may result in latency.
If you are experiencing latency when recording, adjust the knob towards the Direct position to increase the blend of unprocessed audio from your inputs directly to your Main Outputs and Headphone Outputs. This will let you hear the incoming audio from your inputs without latency while still being able to hear the audio from your DAW. When listening to the playback, adjust the knob all the way to the USB position.
If your computer is powerful enough, you may be able to set the buffer size setting in your DAW low enough such that you may never need to listen to the direct audio signal from your inputs. In this case, set the Monitor Mix knob all the way to the USB position to monitor only the audio output of your DAW.

8.Direct Monitor Selector: Leave this switch in the raised position (blue Stereo LED is lit) to monitor the direct input signal with Inputs 1, 3, 5, and 7 in the left channel and Inputs 2, 4, 6, and 8 in the right channel. This is useful if you want to directly monitor a stereo mic setup such as a stereo signal from a keyboard, or overhead drum mics. Put this switch in its depressed position (green Mono LED is lit) to monitor the direct input signal with all inputs summed and heard equally on each side. This is useful for monitoring a guitar or vocal mic signal. This switch does not affect the DAW playback or how your sound is recorded into your DAW; it affects only how you hear the input signal in the Headphone Outputs (when the Headphone Source Selector is set to 1/2, and the Monitor Mix is set to anything besides USB) and Monitor Outputs.
9.Headphone Source Selector: These switches select which outputs (on the rear panel) are also sent to the Headphone Outputs: Main Outputs 1–2 (1/2) or Outputs 3–4 (3/4).
10.Headphone Outputs (front panel): Connect 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS headphones to these outputs. The mix you hear from these outputs will be determined by the Headphone Source Selector, Monitor Mix knob, Direct Monitor Selector, and associated Headphone Volume knob.
11.Headphone Volume (front panel): Adjusts the output volume of the Headphone Outputs.
12.Instrument Inputs (5–6) (front panel): Connect a guitar with a passive pickup or other high-impedance signal to these inputs with a 1/4" (6.35 mm) TS cable. View the input signal levels with the LED Meters (Inputs 5–6).

3.MIDI Out: Use the included 1/8" (3.5 mm)-to-MIDI adapter and a standard five-pin MIDI cable to connect this MIDI Out to the MIDI In of an external MIDI device (e.g., a synthesizer, sequencer, drum machine, etc.).
Important: Do not connect audio devices (e.g., headphones, monitors, etc.) to this jack. Use the included 1/8”-to-MIDI adapter to connect MIDI devices only.
4.MIDI In: Use the included 1/8" (3.5 mm)-to-MIDI adapter and a standard five-pin MIDI cable to connect this MIDI In to the MIDI Out of an external MIDI device (e.g., a MIDI controller).
Important: Do not connect audio devices (e.g., headphones, monitors, etc.) to this jack. Use the included 1/8"-to-MIDI adapter to connect MIDI devices only.
5.Outputs (3–4): Use standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS cables to connect these line outputs to a headphone amplifier, external signal processors like a compressor, etc. Their levels are automatically +4 dBu.
6.Main Outputs (1–2): Use standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS cables to connect these outputs to your powered monitors, amplifier system, etc. The mix you hear from these outputs will be determined by the Monitor Mix knob and Direct Monitor button. The level of these ouputs is controlled by the
Monitor Level knob.
7.Line Inputs (7–8): Connect mixers and other line-level devices to these inputs using standard 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS cables. View the input signal levels with the LED Meters (Inputs 7–8).
8.Combo Inputs (1–4): Connect microphones, a guitar or bass with an active pickup, or line-level devices to these inputs. For microphones, use an XLR or 1/4" (6.35 mm) TRS cable. For a guitar or bass with an active pickup, use a standard 1/4" TS cable. For line-level signals, use a 1/4" TRS cable. View the input signal levels with the LED Meters (Inputs 1–4).
9.Kensington Lock Slot: You can use this Kensington lock slot to secure AIR 192|14 to a table or other surface.
