MAKING CONNECTIONS

Channel Inputs

The Powerpod 750RW features a total of 7 input channels, 3 of
which accept stereo signals. Each channel features a microphone
XLR jack and at least one 1/4" Phone Jack for balanced and
unbalanced connections. Each stereo channel features different
inputs jacks, accepting either microphone inputs or stereo line
inputs.
1. XLR Lo-Z Inputs
These XLR microphone inputs can be used in conjunction with
a wide range of microphones, such as professional condenser,
dynamic or ribbon microphones, with standard XLR male
connectors. With low noise preamplifiers, these inputs serve for
crystal clear sound replication.
NOTE. When using an unbalanced microphone, please ensure phantom
power is switched off. However, when using condenser microphones the
phantom power should be activated.
2. 1/4" Hi-Z and Super Hi-Z Input Jacks
These inputs accept typical 1/4" TRS or TS unbalanced inputs. The
Hi-Z inputs accept balanced TRS inputs, and are for Microphone
to line-level device (such as synthesizers and drum machines),
where the Super Hi-Z inputs accept TS unbalanced sources, and
can be used in conjunction with devices with higher impedance
levels (including electric guitars and basses).
NB.When using a line-level device on your mixer, the PAD -25 button should
be initiated.
3. Stereo Channel Inputs
Each of the Powerpod 750RW powered mixers provides 3 stereo
channels, the inputs of which differ slightly to the mono channels.
The 3-pin XLR inputs featured are for the addition of microphones
with typical XLR male inputs, where the 2 Line 1/4" TS jacks are
for the addition of various stereo line level input devices, such as
keyboards.

4. Tape In (L and R)
The first of these inputs accommodates RCA cables from such
devices as tape and CD players. In addition to these inputs,
however, Phonic has incorporated a mini stereo jack for the
inclusion of such devices as mini disc (MD), portable CD, and MP3
players (such as the Apple iPod), as well as laptop computers. The
line from this feed is directed to the Tape In mixing bus, before
being fed through to the Main 1/2 mix.
5. Record Outputs (L and R)
As with the Tape In ports, these outputs will accommodate RCA
cables, able to be fed to a variety of recording devices. A trim
control is featured on these outputs to accommodate for devices
with different recording levels.
6. AUX Input
These 1/4" TS phone jack inputs connect the mixer with parallel
external devices, such as sub mixers or external effect processors,
receiving the processed signal from another source and feeding it
to the AUX mix.
7. Monitor Outputs
These 1/4" TS outputs are the final output from the Monitor send
mixing bus. This feed may be used to connect to an amplifier and
speaker. Feeding the output from the Monitor out to an amplifier
(and possibly an equalizer) and then to a floor monitor speaker
allows artists to monitor their own instruments or vocals whilst
performing, or an engineer to monitor the mix.
8. Main Outputs
These jacks will output the final stereo line level signal sent from
the main mixing bus. The primary purpose of these jacks is to send
the Main output to external devices that may run in parallel with
the mixer. This may include additional power amplifiers, mixers,
PA systems, as well as a wide range of other possible signal
processors. Powerpod 750RW features monaural main outputs.
