Drawmer 4X4 KickBox Portable - Manual (Page 6)

OUTPUTS
CONTROL DESCRIPTION
Each of the four channels are (almost) identical, with the controls for each as follows:
Inputs
1 PHANTOM POWER A switch provides +48V Phantom Power down the XLR cable to microphones that require it.
NOTE: DO NOT ACTIVATE THE +48V SWITCH UNLESS YOU ARE SURE THAT THE MICROPHONE
REQUIRES IT.
2 MIC/LINE Switches the level of input 4 between Mic or Line, with LED indication. When in the 'Line' position
the phantom power switch is bypassed, the input has a 20dB pad, and the input impedance alters
to >10k Ohms.
3 GAIN A twelve position switch adds gain in 6dB steps from 0dB to +66dB, making it incredibaly easy to
replicate previous levels and have to total control over levels.
4 INPUT The input is via a standard XLR for both mic and line input - pin one is screen, pin two is positive
(hot) and pin three negative (cold).
5 V.U. METER Each channel has an eight LED VU meter, covering the range from -24dB to +18dB.
6 LISTEN Activating the switch will route the input from that particular channel to the headphone section for
monitoring. Each channel can be active seperately (solo) or all can be monitored at once if preferred.
(SEE HEADPHONES).
CHAPTER 2
The control layout of the Drawmer 4X4 comprises
of the mains inlet, headphone monitoring
section, and four identical pre-amplifier and
splitter channels - the only difference being the
link switches. Each of the four channels is based
around Drawmer's own discrete component mic
preamp, which delivers very low distortion and a
wide dynamic range, providing upto 66dB of
switchable gain, mic/line selection and phantom
power, as well as four outputs, either electronic
or transformer isolated (factory fitted optional
extra).
The location of components has been carefully
considered in order to be very intuative and also
to make cable routing as clean and unobtrusive
as possible. When fully loaded the 4X4 will have
a total of twenty XLR cables, a headphone cable
and also the mains - with the 4x4 lid removed all
of these cables can easily be routed to the back
of the unit without covering any of the controls.
