  2. Channel Treble control: ±15dB
  3. Channel volume control: The volume level should be lower than the master level. This control acts as a preamp, if you are using a device that has a volume output control you will need to match levels by adjusting the level controls on each unit.
  4. Microphone/Low impedance XLR input: Connect balanced low impedance microphones with an input impedance of 1K PIN 1 = shield, PIN 2 = positive (hot), PIN 3 = negative (cold)

WARNING: When using condenser microphones, make sure that Phantom power (48V) is switched on (see item 22).

  1. Line/High impedance 1/4 input: This input may be used as either high-impedance microphone input or for line-level devices such as a cassette player, CD player, video projector, or laptop. Will also allow connection from an electric guitar, bass or keyboard. It is a two-conductor input with an impedance of 10K ohms.
  2. Channel Echo: Controls the amount of echo added to the input signals.
  3. Balanced 1/4″ TRS Line Out: Sends the music signal to another amplifier, a powered subwoofer, powered speakers, monitors, or any other external device.
  4. Balanced 1/4″ TRS Line In Used to connect line-level sources: mixing consoles, samplers, CD players, cassette decks, DAT machines, and other audio interfaces.
  5. SD card slot: Inserting an SD card will set the RPM45BT to SD mode and it will automatically begin to play music.
  6. USB port: Inserting a USB flash drive will set the RPM45BT to USB mode and it will automatically begin to play music.

  15. Line in volume control
  16. MP3 volume control (USB and SD input)
  17. Master volume control
  18. Phantom Power ON/OFF button (Red LED indicates power on): When activated, phantom power provides 48 volts DC to power condenser microphones.

Please note: Do not plug or unplug devices and mics while phantom power is on. It can cause severe damage to the mic. When phantom power is turned off, it is recommended you wait approximately 7 seconds so as to allow time for the voltage to completely die out.
