Peavey XR 696 Stereo Amplifier User Manual


 
NOTE: Channels 5-9 contain features that differ from the previous
channels. Only those features are mentioned below. For information on
features not mentioned please refer to the section for Channels 1-4.
CHANNELS 5-6
10. LINE: 1/4" balanced TRS input for line-level signals. This signal is
connected through a 25 dB pad to the mic input below it.
11. LOW CUT: This is a low-cut filter with a corner frequency of 80 Hz used
to filter rumble, wind noise, breath thumps, stage noise, and other low-
frequency components that rob power from the amplifiers and muddy the
signal. Depressing this switch will affect Channels 1 - 6 only. Use of the
filter will not affect the monitor signal.
CHANNELS 7-8
12. RIGHT INPUT: High-impedance 1/4" input for line-level signals. The Right
Input is adjusted by the Level control (#4). If the XR
®
696 is in Left/Right
mode then the signal will go to the Right Speaker Output (#37). In
Mon/Main mode the signal is combined with the Left and placed on the
Main Speaker Output. The right signal can also be patched out of the XR
696 via the Right Output jack (#31) to external components such as
effects, power amps, and recording devices.
13. LEFT/MONO INPUT: High-impedance 1/4" input for line-level signals. The
Left/Mono input supplies signal to both the Left and Right channels (if
there is nothing inserted to the right input jack) through the Level control
(#4). In Left/Right mode the signal will go to the Left Speaker Output (and
Right Speaker Output if nothing is inserted to the right input jack). In
Mon/Main mode the signal is combined with the Right and placed on the
Main Speaker Output.
CHANNEL 9
14. TAPE IN: This stereo RCA phono jack accepts a stereo input (nominally
-10 dBV) from the output of a tape deck or CD player and places it on the
Left and Right channels as well as the monitor mix.
15. TAPE OUT: This stereo RCA phono jack provides a signal for the
recording inputs of a stereo tape deck.
CAUTION: DO NOT HOOK THE TAPE IN AND TAPE OUT TO THE
INPUT AND OUTPUT OF THE SAME DECK. DOING SO WILL FORM A
LOOP CAUSING SEVERE FEEDBACK. USE SEPARATE DECKS FOR
RECORDING AND PLAYBACK.
