4.1 THE MIC/LINE INPUT 1 These are Channel 1 through Channel 4. You can connect balanced, low impedance microphones or a low level signal to the XLR socket. On the 1/4" Line jack you can connect either a microphone or a line level instrument . Note: You shall never connect an unbalanced microphone to the XLR socket if you do not want to damage both the microphone and the mixer.
6 4.6 CLIP LED/0dB LED The green LED illuminates when the signal overpasses the 0dB level, the red CLIP LED illuminates when the channel is going into overload. If the CLIP LED becomes permanently on, reduce the amount of gain. To have best signal-to-noise ratio set the gain so that the green 0dB LED becomes lighted. 7 4.7 INPUT LEVEL SETTING LOW CUT This control is provided with 2 different indication rings: one is for the MIC input and the other for the LINE input.
4.13 AUX1 pre 16 - 4.14 PAN 8 0dB 17 0dB AUX1 pre - +10 center 8 The AUX1 control allows to manage the signals coming from the stereo inputs and send them to AUX1 output in order to feed the monitors. The level of this signal is not affected by the channel LEVEL control. PAN AUX1 pre +10 center 16 PAN 17 This control allows to choose the position of a mono input signal into the stereo field.

5. INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION Ok, you have got to this point and you are now in the position to successfully operate your GHIBLI 16(FX). However, we advise you to read carefully the following section to be the real master of your own mixer. Not paying enough attention to the input signal level, to the routing of the signal and the assignment of the signal will result in unwanted distortion, a corrupted signal or no sound at all. So you should follow these procedures for every single channel: 1).
5.1 SOME FINAL TIPS ON WIRING CONFIGURATION You can connect unbalanced equipment to balanced inputs and outputs. Simply follow these schemes.
Ring=Return Signal (Connected together) To Channel Insert Sleeve=Ground/Screen Tip=Signal To Tape or FX Input Sleeve=Ground/Screen 'Tapped' Connection Direct Output Lead (Enables the Insert to be used as a Direct Output while maintaining the channel signal flow) To Processor Input Sleeve=Ground/Screen Tip=Send Signal Tip To Channel Insert Sleeve Ring=Return Signal Ring To Processor Output -Stereo lead for insert Connection (To be used when the processor does not employ a single jack connection
