converter. Therefore Gain (see Monitor/Mixer) can be set between 10.5 dBu

(left position) and 0 dBu (right position)

At microphone input the audio signal is amplified by a pre-amp first by 46/26

dB. Afterwards the signal is attenuated before it's routed to an A/D converter.

Gain (see Monitor/Mixer) can be set approx. between -35.3 dBu (left position)

and -43.8 dBu (right position)

Generally the mic+ input signal is treated similarly as line input signal (i.e. no

pre-amp). In opposite to line input the audio signal is amplified before it's

routed to an A/D converter. Therefore Gain (see Monitor/Mixer) can be set

between -10 dBu (left position) and 0 dBu (right position).

b) Mute Mode

FLASHMAN II supports the muting of the audio inputs 1 and 2 (see also function

key Back light / Audio).

Either

Hold (default): an audio input can be muted when the referring function button

is hold

Toggle: the muting can be toggled between 'on' or 'off' each time the referring

function button is pressed.

c) Limiter

The limiter guarantees that too high audio input levels are not just cut off (which

caused big distortions) but softly clipped.

d) HP filter

Just available for microphone input

This feature prevents that low frequencies at audio input damages audio

equipment.

e) 48 V

Just available for microphone input

48 V phantom power enables to use FLASHMAN II with condenser microphones

f) - 20 dB

Just available for microphone input (but not at mic+)

This feature enables the attenuate audio input by 20 dB.
