Thank you for y our purchase of the PM350b P e rsonal Monitor Mixer Plus .
This unit mixes a microphone signal with a 1/4" Tip-Ring-Slee ve stereo or
mono instrument level signal and a 1/4" TRS stereo or mono monitor
signal. The Mic Input and Thru jacks have a s witchab le g round lift, as do
the 1/4" TRS Instrument Outputs. The instrument input connects to two
independent 1/4" TRS balanced outputs via electronic balancing circuits .
Max Input Level: -20 dB XLR, +40 dB Line, +15 dB Instrument
Inst. Input Impedance: 50K ohms
Inst. Output Freq. Response: 10 - 30 kHz +/- 3 dB
Output Impedance, Hdphn: 10 ohms
Output Impedance, Inst.: 2 ea; 100 ohms balanced
Gain: 20 dB 1/4", 50 dB XLR
Hdphn Freq. Response: 20 - 20 kHz
S/N Ratio: 90 dB
The PM350b is designed for perf ormers who want to monitor their own

mix a click track with a monitor signal. Church choir singers love the
PM350b to monitor their voices ov er the musicians.

WARRANTY BACK COVER
It is difficult to measure the exact Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) present at the
eardrum in live applications. In addition to the volume setting on this Personal
Monitor unit, the SPL in the ear is affected by ambient sound from floor wedges
or other devices. The isolation provided by the fit of quality earphones is also an
important factor in determining the SPL in the ear .
Follow these guidelines in the use of this product to protect your ears from
damage:
1. Turn up the volume only to the point where hearing is comfortable.
2. Ringing in the ears may indicate that the levels are too high. Lower the volume
level.
3. Have your ears checked by an audiologist on a regular basis. If you experience

wax buildup in your ears, stop using the system until an audiologist has examined your ears.
4. W ipe the earphones with an antiseptic before and after use to avoid infections.
Stop using the earphones if they are causing great discomfort or infection.

DESCRIPTION
LINE INPUT: 1/4" TRS stereo jack for connection to a line level source such as a
mixer monitor/auxiliary output, cassette player output, CD player output etc.
ground lift: Header jumper for disconnecting chassis ground from pin 1 of the Mic
Input and Mic Thru.
MIC THRU: XLR jack paralleled (hard-wired) to the MIC INPUT jack for pass-through
to a mixer or other microphone level input device.
MIC INPUT: XLR balanced jack for connection to a condenser or dynamic microphone.
INSTRUMENT INPUT: 1/4" TRS stereo jack for connection to an instrument or line
level signal such as a guitar processor, keyboard, or instrument preamp output.
MONO/STEREO JUMPER: Selects whether the INST. INPUT jack is mono or stereo.
LEFT/RIGHT OUTPUTs: Electronically balanced 1/4" TRS outputs of the Instrument
Input.
ground lift: Header jumper for disconnecting chassis ground from the 1/4" TRS
instrument output jacks.
MONO/STEREO JUMPER (Located below the LINE INPUT): Selects whether the
LINE INPUT jack is mono or stereo.
may be used to "phantom power" the PM350. See the OPERATION section for
details.
DC IN 12 VDC: For connection to the external Rolls PS27 power adapter.
HEADPHONE OUTPUTS:1/4" Stereo jack, and 1/8" stereo jack for connection to
stereo headphones or earphones.
LINE LEVEL: Adjusts the level of signal from the LINE INPUT to the headphone mix.
MIC LEVEL: Adjusts the level of signal from the MIC INPUT to the headphone mix.
INST. LEVEL: Adjusts the level of signal from the INST. INPUT to the headphone mix.

OPERATION
The diagram below shows an e xample of ho w to connect the PM350b f or
proper operation.
Make sure the Rolls PS27 12VDC power supply is connected to an active AC
outlet, and all audio connections are in place.
• The LINE INPUT connects to either a 1/4" stereo or mono plug. If this plug is
Tip-Ring-Sleeve stereo and y ou're sending a stereo signal to this jac k, select
the STEREO setting of the Mono/Stereo jumper. If the plug is Tip-Sleev e
mono, select the MONO setting of the Mono/Stereo jumper . The MONO
setting is also the proper selection if you are phantom powering the PM350b.
• Setting the Mono/Stereo jumpers;
If the input to the LINE INPUT or INSTRUMENT
INPUT is a Tip-Ring-Slee v e stereo signal, set the

here.
• The MIC INPUT connects to either a dynamic or condenser microphone via
a standard XLR cable. If you are using a condenser type mic, you will need to
power it via phantom power from the mix er which connects to the MIC THRU
jack. This jack will pass the phantom power from a mixer on to the microphone.
• Connect the MIC THRU jack to the mixer or snake as necessary.
• The INSTRUMENT INPUT connects to a guitar preamp output, keyboard, or
any stereo or mono instrument level signal. Again, selecte stereo or mono.
If the signal to the LINE INPUT or INSTRUMENT
INPUT is Tip-Slee v e mono, move the jumper to
connect the "mono" pins.
NOTE: If the LINE INPUT mono/stereo jumper is
missing, only one side of the headphones/earphones
will work.

OUTPUTS
• The INSTRUMENT OUTPUTs are electronically isolated and converts the
high impedance INSTRUMENT INPUT signal to low impedance so it can be
sent down a balanced line. These signals may then be plugged into an XLR
input on a mixer or snake b y using a 1/4" TRS to XLR cable. Note that the
level of this signal may be too high for a mixer's microphone input - you may
experience distortion. In this
event, turn down the instrument
• Phantom Pow ering the PM350b
A very useful feature of the PM350b is the ability to send
the 12VDC power to the unit via the LINE INPUT ring
connection. Mak e sure the Mono/Stereo jumper is in the
MONO position. Connect the 12VDC to the Ring of the
TRS plug as shown here.

power the PM350b. Also, any voltage greater than 16 VDC will damage the unit.
GROUND LIFT
The Mic Input and Mic Thru hav e a g round lift jumper provided to lift the XLR
pin 1 from chassis ground. The 1/4" TRS Instrument Outputs also have this
feature. If you experience a "hum" on the microphone or instrument outputs,
lifting the ground may elliminate the problem. To lift the ground, use a pair of
3 4
needle-nose pliers and carefully remove the header jumper . Replace the
jumper on the two pins labled "lift".
