Switching is possible in groups of four channels. Phantom
power is supplied when the switch is set to +48.
CAUTION
• Before switching between +48/OFF, lower the device's
output volume with the PHONES and LINE OUT1-2 knobs.
Failure to do so could cause a loud noise that might damage
other devices or cause injury.
• Do not connect or disconnect mics when this switch is set to
+48.
• Do not supply phantom power to an unbalanced dynamic
mic.
• Supplying phantom power to some types of ribbon mics
could damage them. Do not supply phantom power to a
ribbon mic if you are in doubt.

Beware of condensation

Condensation could occur if the unit is moved from a cold place
to a warm place, it is used immediately after a cold room has
been heated or it is otherwise exposed to a sudden temperature
change.
To prevent this, or if this occurs, let the unit sit for one or two
hours at the new room temperature before using it.

Cleaning the unit

To clean the unit, wipe it gently with a soft dry cloth. Do not
wipe with chemical cleaning cloths, benzene, thinner, alcohol or
other chemical agents. Doing so could damage the surface or
cause discoloration.
