Sensitivity*1 Nominal Max. before clip
INPUT 1-32 (1-16) +66 dB 7.5 kΩ 50-600 Ω Mics & 600 Ω Lines –82 dBu (0.062 mV) -62 dBu (0.616 mV) -42 dBu (6.16 mV) XLR 3-hole chassis (Balanced)*2
-6 dB –10 dBu (245 mV) +10 dBu (2.45 V) +30 dBu (24.5 V)

0 dBu = 0.775 Vrms.
+48 V DC (phantom power) is supplied to the [INPUT] 1-32 (1-16) connectors via each individual software-controlled switch.
*1. Sensitivity is the minimum level needed to output +4 dBu (1.23 V) or the specified level when the gain is set to maximum. (All faders and level controls are set to maximum.)
*2. 1=GND, 2=HOT, 3=COLD
