1. Combo Inputs
Channels 1 and 2 feature combo input connectors that accept mi-
crophone input signals through either XLR and ¼" TRS connec-
tors. The signal from these inputs is controlled by their respective
level controls.
2. ¼" Line Input
This ¼" line input connector is for connection of external line-level
devices such as CD players, MP3 players and instruments such
as keyboards.
3. Mic In Volume Controls
These rotary controls allow users to adjust the incoming micro-
phone signals from their respective input jacks.
4. Line In / Bluetooth Level Control
This rotary control is for the third input channel and adjusts the
incoming signal from the line-level input jack as well as the wire-
less Bluetooth signal. Both the input and the bluetooth function can
be used at the same time, however this level control adjusts the
signal simultaneously. That being the case, we advise using the
bluetooth source's volume control to better balance the audio level
of the input and the Bluetooth.
