LM-1: Installation & User Guide 5
6 ‘Local’ Connection and Control Facilities
6a Music inputs
The LM-1 is a mono device; the line inputs are stereo connections, which are internally
buffered and mixed to create a mono signal. The line input level connection is via
unbalanced stereo RCA type phono sockets; it is suitable for all standard ‘line out’ signals.
Input impedance is 20k
Ω .
6b Music Level Control
The Music Level control is located on the front panel of the LM-1; it controls the level of the
line-input signal.
6c Microphone Inputs
The balanced microphone input has a standard female XLR connector and the microphone
amplifier is an electronically balanced transformerless design. The input impedance is
greater than 2k
Ω and suitable for microphones of approximately 200 Ω -600 Ω impedance
range. The input cable should be wired as the following table describes:
Mic Type PIN 1 PIN 2 PIN3
Balanced SCREEN +Ve (IN PHASE) -Ve
Unbalanced SCREEN +Ve LINK TO PIN 1
6d Microphone Level Control
The user is provided with a convenient microphone level control on the front panel of the LM-
1. The control has a gain range of 0-60dB, which allows operation with signals ranging from
mic-level to line-level. When fully anticlockwise the microphone will effectively be turned off.
6e Priority
When the priority switch is depressed, a 30dB reduction of both the local and mixer music
signals will occur whenever a microphone signal is detected by the LM-1; both the attack and
hold times are suitably swift.
7 System Music Control Facilities
The ‘system music control’ section of the LM-1 is exactly the
same as an RSL-6 remote control plate. Descriptions of both
system music controls are to follow:
7a System Music Level
This control allows the user to adjust the level of the host mixer
derived music in the associated zone.
7b System Source Select
The source select control allows any one of up to six different
music sources (from within the host mixer) to be chosen for the
associated zone.
