OPERATION
CONSUMER LEVEL VS PROFESSIONAL LEVEL The purpose of the HMB115 is to connect consumer level equipment to profes­sional level equipment. Consumer level signals typically come from devices such as camcorders, cas­sette decks, CD players, and home video players. Professional level signals are associated with devices found in recording studios and sound reinforcement systems like mixing boards, signal processors, and their associated amplifi ers.
