Inputs
The MixPre-10T’s exibility is enhanced by its ability to select various input
types to its mixer channels. Each of the MixPre-10T’s channels can be sourced
from an XLR or TRS mic/line input, 3.5mm Aux line or mic input (with or
without plug-in-power) or from USB channels 1-4 from a computer.
Channel Inputs
BASIC MODE -
For quick and easy applications, access the channel’s input settings by
pushing in the channel’s knob. You will see the Channel screen displayed.
There, you’ll be able to select the channel input source, whether you’d
like to send the audio to the Left, Center or Right of the mix bus, select
Phantom power (for condenser microphones and active DIs), and select a
Low Cut Filter.
In Basic mode, an input channel path uses a single gain stage adjusted by
its Channel knob.
The MixPre-10T’s Kashmir mic preampliers have great dynamic range and
noise specs as well as analog limiters so it’s not necessary for you to set
any levels other than that of the Channel knob (which sends the audio to
the LR mix record channels and the LR outputs. The limiters are present
on each channel and the LR mix bus. This means that peaks that would
normally clip other mic preampliers and ruin a mix, will be handled in just
the right way to make sure that your audio is safe from accidental clipping.
ADVANCED MODE -
For more complex situations requiring individual channel-to-track (ISO)
recording, soloing, channel linking, two-stage gain functionality (trim/
fader), limiter bypass, input delay, and phase.
