MIC / LINE INPUTS

L. LINE / MIC SWITCH
This switch allows you to select gain
levels for either a microphone or line
level source. When the switch is in the
line position, the input level is
optimized for items such as guitars,
keyboards, drum machines, outboard
effects, etc. When the switch is in the
mic position, the input level is
optimized for most commonly used
microphones. No harm will come to the
circuitry if the switch is in the wrong
position. However, for
performance, be sure to use the mic
position when a microphone
plugged into the respective channel
and the line position when an item
using a line level signal is used.
M. MIC INPUT JACK – Plug your microphone in here. This
three pin XLR balanced female input connector is intended for
input signals from low impedance microphones.
N. LINE INPUT JACK – Plug your instrument in here. This 1/4
inch balanced input jack suited for use with items having a
line level output such as high impedance microphones,
keyboards, drum machines, outboard effects, etc. It accepts
both balanced and unbalanced cables.
O. 1 / 1+2 SWITCH –
This switch affects the RCA
and 1/4" TRS jacks. Select
either input 1 or a mono sum
of both inputs 1 and 2. If a
guitar is plugged into the 1/4"
TRS jack, have the switch in
the "1" position. The tip
(input 1) and ring (input 2) of
the TRS jack are summed
when the switch is in the
"1+2" position; use this
setting when using a stereo
output from a keyboard or
other stereo source.
P. RCA INPUTS – Phono
(RCA) input jacks designed
for use with a tape player, CD
player, or any other source. Use these jacks for connecting
the output of a computer sound card or other similar device
to your Passport. Adapters that convert an 1/8" male plug to
RCA male phono plugs are readily available at electronics
stores. Note: These connectors are set at a constant "line
level".
Q. 1/4" TRS INPUT –
This jack is wired for
Ring=Right and Sleeve=Ground, the
standard format of commercially available cables. The
sensitivity of this input is suited for playback devices such as
CDs, Cassettes, DAT or Mini Disc. Outputs from instruments
such as keyboards can also be used here.
R. TAPE OUT – The Tape Out RCA jacks provide a mix output
that is independent of the Master Level Controls. Connect
–
optimum
is
Tip=Left,
1 2 Grnd
these to the inputs of a recording device, such as a cassette
or DAT recorder, to record your event. Changes made during
the performance, to the input level controls, channel EQ, and
reverb controls will be heard in the Tape Out mix. Changes
made to the master level controls will not effect the level of the
recording. Adjust recording levels according to the
instructions on your recording device.
AUX AND FOOTSWITCH JACKS
S. AUX SEND – Plug your external effects signal processor in
here. Although the Passport is already equipped with on-
board digital reverb, an external effects signal processor can
be incorporated into the Passport's signal flow. This 1/4 inch
output jack is designed to feed the Passport's effects bus
signal to an external signal processing device, such as a
digital delay or a chorus.
T. AUX RETURN – Plug your external effects signal
processor's output signal in here. This 1/4 inch input jack is
designed to accept signals from an external processing
device, such as a digital delay or a chorus unit. This input can
also be used as an additional mono input with the volume
controlled at the master volume knobs.
U. FOOT SWITCH – The Footswitch connector allows the
internal reverb return to be muted, or shut off, through the use
of a simple foot operated switch (Fender part number 099-
4052-000). The footswitch should be wired to connect the tip
to the sleeve to turn the reverb off, and requires a standard
speaker or instrument cable.
