Setup
The MD2 Pro can be quite useful on stage or in the studio for connect-
ing unbalanced audio sources or instruments with pickups. By utilizing
the MD2 Pro, the signal can be sent cleanly for long distances while
benefiting from the low noise and common mode rejection provided by
the balanced low-level output. The diagram following shows a typical
hook-up for a stereo keyboard connected to a keyboard amplifier and a
PA system.
•
Set the volume controls of your audio system to the off position.
• Connect your instrument or other audio source to the MD2 Pro
INPUT jacks.
• Connect the THRU outputs to a monitor speaker or sub-mixer.
• Connect the BALANCED OUTPUT jacks to the microphone inputs
of a mixer or other audio device.
• Raise the level of the audio system to the appropriate level.
• If you hear a hum or buzz set the GROUND LIFT switch to the
LIFT position.
• If you hear distortion, set the pad switch to either the -10dB or
-20dB position. You may need to adjust the input level of the
mixer to make up for the attenuated signal.
