The Front Panel includes input connectors for Mic, Line and Instrument signals, the input gain and
monitoring controls, and sockets for headphones.
1. Inputs 1 and 2 XLR Combo type input sockets - connect microphones, instruments (e.g.,
guitar), or line level signals via XLR or ¼” (6.35 mm) jacks as appropriate. Either ¼” TRS
(balanced) or TS (unbalanced) jack plugs can be used for instruments or line level signals.
2. Inputs 3 and 4 Combo XLR input sockets as [1], but accept mic or line level signals only.
Direct connection of instruments should be via Inputs 1 and/or 2.
3. 48V two switches enabling 48 V phantom power at the XLR contacts (mic inputs) of the
Combo connectors, in pairs (1 & 2; 3 & 4). The switch illuminates when phantom power is
selected.
4. GAIN 01 and GAIN 04 - adjust the input gain for the signals at Inputs 1 to 4 respectively. The
gain controls have concentric bi-colour LED ‘ringsto confirm signal level: green indicates
an input level of at least -24 dBFS (i.e., ‘signal present’), the ring then turns red when signal
level reaches 0 dBFS.
5. INST the input configuration for the jack contacts at Inputs 1 and 2 can be selected via
software from Scarlett MixControl. The green LEDs illuminate when INST is selected. With
INST selected, the gain range and input impedance are altered (relative to LINE), and the
input is made unbalanced. This optimises it for the direct connection of instruments (usually
via a 2-pole (TS) jack plug). When INST is off, the inputs are suitable for the connection of line
level signals. Line level signals may be connected either in balanced form via a 3-pole (TRS)
jack or unbalanced, via a 2-pole (TS) jack.
6. PAD – a 10 dB pad may be inserted in each of the input signal paths; these are controlled via
software from Scarlett MixControl. The pad increases the headroom of the input stage, and
should be used to reduce mic or line level signals which are ‘too hot’. It is not intended for use
with the Instrument inputs. The red LEDs illuminate when PAD is selected.
7.
USB - a green LED which illuminates when the unit is recognised by the computer to
which it is connected.
8. MIDI LED – a green LED illuminates when MIDI data is received at the MIDI IN port.
9. MONITOR - main monitor output level control this is an analogue control and adjusts the
level at Outputs 1 and 2 on the rear panel.
