REAR PANEL
Master Outputs
Right and Left Out: 1/4”TRS balanced main output jacks. For connection to an amplier,
recording device or signal processor.
Right and Left Aux Return: 1/4” unbalanced jack, for connection to the right and left out-
puts of a signal processor, or they may be used as auxiliary inputs.
Aux Send: 1/4” unbalanced jack, for connection to a signal processor input such as a
multi-eects processor. This output may also be used as a monitor send for connection to
an amplier and speakers for monitoring.
Record Out: Stereo RCA jacks for connection to a stereo input device such as a cassette player or
DAT player, for recording program material. Level is controlled by individual channel volumes.
Record Inputs: Stereo RCA jacks for connection to a source such as a cassette player or
CD player.
Channel Inputs
Note: Channels Two through Ten are identical.
Right / Left: 1/4”TS unbalanced jacks for connection to the right and left outputs of a
stereo instrument, or if nothing is plugged into the Left input, the signal connected to the
Right input feeds both sides.
Channel One
Input: Balanced XLR jack for connection to a condenser or dynamic microphone.
Phantom Power: For applying +15V phantom power to the Mic 1 XLR jack.
PHANTOM POWER
The RM219 Phantom Power is applied to the XLR input when the rear phantom power switch is
in the on position.
INPUT CONNECTION EXAMPLE
The RM219 Channel One is designed to receive a microphone level signal, all other chan-
nels are designed to receive line-level signals. Connect a microphone to Channel One,
and connect the outputs of each instrument or module via a 1/4” cable to channels two
through ten as shown in Example 1 (See back page). Connect the outputs to an amplier,
snake, or mixer.
AUXILIARY SEND/STEREO RETURN CONNECTION EXAMPLE
Connect 1/4” unbalanced cables to the Aux Send to the Input of the signal processor, and
connect each signal processor output to its corresponding Aux Return jack as shown in
Example 2 (See back page). Set the “Mix” control on your signal processor to 100% eect
since the dry portion of the signal is mixed in the RM219.
NOTE: The RM219 Aux Send jack may also be connected to an amplier, then to speak-
ers and used as a Monitor Send.
