Balanced sends and returns, (using stereo TRS Jack connectors) :
- Sleeve = Ground (screen).
- Tip = Signal Phase (“+” or “hot”).
- Ring = Signal Non-Phase (“-” or “cold”).
Unbalanced send and returns: (using stereo TRS Jack connectors)
- Sleeve = Ground (screen)
- Tip = Signal Phase (“+” or “hot”).
- Ring = Ground (screen)
(Alternatively a mono TRS Jack may be used for unbalanced signals wired hot to tip,
screen to sleeve). Balanced connection is always preferable in an audio system, where
the equipment being connected supports it. It is possible to mix balanced and
unbalanced connections, for example using unbalanced sends and balanced returns,
with no loss in level.
Direct Outputs, L/S Outputs and FX Send.
These outputs all use balanced TRS jack connectors, which may also be wired for
balanced or unbalanced connection as follows:
Balanced outputs:
- Sleeve = Ground (screen).
- Tip = Signal Phase (“+” or “hot”).
- Ring = Signal Non-Phase (“-” or “cold”).
Unbalanced outputs:
- Sleeve = Ground (screen)
- Tip = Signal Phase (“+” or “hot”).
- Ring = Ground (screen)
Unbalanced Outputs
A 2 pin (mono) jack plug is required, which should be wired as follows:
