FUNCTIONS
[1] INPUTS OF CHANNELS 1 TO 6 (L-PAD 16CX USB) / 1 TO 8 (L-PAD 24CX USB).
NOTE: see also the manual section entitled „Wiring the connectors."
MIC: balanced input with XLR (f) connector for microphone, equipped with „Phantom" power supply (disconnectable)
for the use of electret or condenser microphones.
LINE: Balanced „line level" input for 1/4" TRS jack (or unbalanced, 1/4" TS jack).
INSERT: input / output (1/4" TRS jack ) for the serial connection of an external signal processor (e.g. compressor).
GAIN: gain control (MIC: 0 ÷ –50 dB; LINE: +20 ÷ –30 dB).
COMP: compressor control that acts both on the threshold of intervention as well as on the compression ratio (0: no
compression).
[2] INPUTS OF CHANNELS 7 AND 8 (L-PAD 16CX USB) / 9 TO 16 (L-PAD 24CX USB).
NOTE: see also the manual section entitled „Wiring the connectors."
MIC: balanced input with XLR (f) connector for microphone, equipped with „Phantom" power supply (disconnectable)
for the use of electret or condenser microphones.
LINE: Balanced „line level" input for 1/4" TRS jack (or unbalanced, 1/4" TS jack).

(disconnectable) for the use of electret or condenser microphones.
L (mono) / R: balanced „line level" stereo input (double 1/4" TRS jack).
L (left): left channel; R (right): right channel.
Use only the L input for „mono" signals.
GAIN: gain control (MIC: 0 ÷ –50 dB; L / R: +20 ÷ –30 dB).
[4] INPUTS OF CHANNELS 13-14 AND 15-16 (L-PAD 16CX USB) / 21-22 AND 23-24 (L-PAD 24CX USB).

L (left): left channel; R (right): right channel.
Use only the L input for „mono" signals.
GAIN: gain control (+20 ÷ –30 dB).
[5] LINE / USB SELECTOR OF CHANNELS 15-16 (L-PAD 16CX USB) / 23-24 (L-PAD 24CX USB).
LINE: channels 15‑16 (L‑PAD 16CX USB) / 23‑24 (L‑PAD USB 24CX) are normally assigned to the respective 1/4" jack inputs.
USB: channels 15‑16 (L‑PAD 16CX USB) / 23‑24 (L‑PAD 24CX USB) are assigned to the USB interface (to receive the audio
signal from the connected computer).
