Please note these advices, because especially in `Sound & Light' caution is indicated: Even if a plug fits into the socket, an incorrect connection may result in a destroyed power amp, a short circuit or `just' in poor transmission quality! Balanced and unbalanced transmis- sion Unbalanced transmission is mainly used in semi-professional environment and in hifi use. Instrument cables with two conductors (one core plus shielding) are typical rep- resentatives of the unbalanced transmission. One conductor is ground and shielding while the signal is transmitted through the core. Unbalanced transmission is susceptible to electromagnetic interference, especially at low levels, such as microphone signals and when using long cables. In a professional environment, therefore, the balanced transmission is preferred, because this enables an undisturbed transmission of signals over long distances. In addition to the conductors `Ground' and `Signal', in a balanced transmission a second core is added. This also transfers the signal, but phase-shifted by 180°. Since the interference affects both cores equally, by subtracting the phase-shifted signals, the interfering signal is completely neutralized. The result is a pure signal without any noise interference. 1/4" TS phone plug (mono, unbal- anced) 1 2 Signal Ground, shielding 1/4" TRS phone plug (mono, bal- anced) 1 2 3 1/4" TRS phone plug (stereo, unbal- anced) 1 2 3 Signal (in phase, +) Signal (out of phase, ) Ground Signal (left) Signal (right) Ground 19 xmix 1402 FXMP USB Mixer Plug and connection assignment XLR plug (balanced) XLR plug (unbalanced) 1 Ground, shielding 2 Signal (in phase, +) 3 Signal (out of phase, ) 4 Shielding on plug housing (option) 1 Ground, shielding 2 Signal 3 Bridged to pin 1 RCA connection Drawing and table indicate the pin assignment of an RCA plug. 1 Signal 2 Ground, shielding 20 xmix 1402 FXMP USB Mixer Protecting the environment 8 Protecting the environment Disposal of the packing material Environmentally friendly materials have been chosen for the packaging.
