MAKING CONNECTIONS
1. 3-Pin Phoenix/Euroblock Jacks
These jacks accept 3-pin phoenix/euroblock inputs for
balanced signals. They can be used in conjunction with
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. Pin identification for grounding,
positive and negative pins can be found underneath the input
jack.
NB. When using an unbalanced microphone, please ensure phantom
power is switched off. However, when using condenser
microphones the phantom power should be activated.
2. Line In Jacks
These inputs accept 1/4" TS line inputs for the addition of
various music instruments – such as keyboards, drum
machines, electric guitars, as well as a variety of other line
level instruments.
3. Aux Bus Input
This RCA input allows external devices to be connected to
the PM 801. Such devices may include tape, CD players and
other PM 801s.
4. Main Output
This 3-pin phoenix/euroblock connector will output the final
line level signal sent from the main mix. The primary purpose
of this jack is to send the main output to external devices such
as amplifiers, active speakers, as well as other, mixers, PA
systems, and a wide range of other possible signal
processors. Pin identification for grounding, positive and
negative pins can be found underneath the output jack.

5. Prefader Output
This RCA output allows external devices to be connected to
the PM 801. Such devices may include tape recorders, signal
processors and other PM 801s.
6. +48V Phantom Power
These switches allow you to individually elect which channel's
microphone input jack to active phantom power on. When
activated, these switches provide +48V of phantom power to
the XLR connectors, allowing condenser microphones to be
used on these channels. Before turning Phantom Power on,
ensure level controls are set to a minimum.
NB. Phantom Power should be used in conjunction with balanced
microphones. When Phantom Power is engaged, single ended
(unbalanced) microphones and instruments should not be used
on the Mic inputs. Phantom Power will not cause damage to most
dynamic microphones, however if unsure, the microphone's user
manual should be consulted.
7. Power Connector and Fuse Holder
This port is for the addition of a power cable and supply,
allowing power to be supplied to the mixer. Please use the
power cable that is included with this mixer only. The Fuse
holder, located above the AC Power connector, is, of course,
for the PM 801's fuse. If the fuse happens to blow, open the
holder cover, and replace the fuse with a suitable replacement
(as indicated on the fuse holder's cover).
