5. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION SP OT L IG 4. CONTROL ELEMENTS HT 1 MONO MIC/LINE Channels Ring=Return Signal (Connected together) To Channel Insert Sleeve=Ground/Screen Tip=Signal To Tape or FX Input Your LYNX-MIX244 is equipped with 16 low-noise microphone preamplifier with optional phantom power, 50 dB of Gain and over 115 dB of S/N ratio. You can connect almost any type of microphone. Dynamic microphones do not need phantom power.
SP OT L IG 4. CONTROL ELEMENTS 5. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION HT 5 LINE GAIN When you use a line level instrument, you shall read the ring (-20~+20 dB). For optimum operation, you shall set this control in a way that the PEAK LED (15) blinks only occasionally in order to avoid distortion on the input channel.
7. With a pair of headphone or studio monitor speakers are connected, apply a Line Level input signal so that the PEAK LED does not light up. 8. Increase the input gain properly for maintaining the good headroom and ideal dynamic range. 9. Depending on the actual application, turn slowly the input and output level controls for obtaining the maximum gain before distortion. 10. Now repeat the same sequence for all input channels. The main LED meter could move up into the red section.
SP OT L IG 4. CONTROL ELEMENTS HT 17 ASSIGNMENT Switches Each channel provides four push-buttons: SUB1-2, SUB3-4, MAIN L-R and SOLO. Pressing the SOLO button, the corresponding SOLO LED will illuminate and the SOLO signal will replace other signals send to the Headphone/Control Room and Meters. We suggest use the SOLO function in live work to preview channels before they are let into the mix. It is useful to set an instrument's input level and EQ, and you can also solo any channel that you want to.
