OPERATION 5. Connecting the Audio Output The output stage of each channel and the separate four channels mixed output of the 401X Quad are all configured for adjustable unbalanced LINE and fixed balanced XLR line or microphone audio outputs. The adjustable unbalanced 1/4" mix out is a low level LINE with an output impedance of 600 ohms. The individual fixed level balanced XLR out can be configured as high level line out with 11k ohms output impedance or microphone level out with a 600 ohms load impedance. For each channel you wish to use, insert an audio cord with a balanced female XLR plug into its AF OUTPUT (10) jack on back of the receiver. Plug the other end of each cord into your amplifier, effect or mixing board. Adjust volume on your mixing board so that no audio distortion in present when amp or mixer is set at its usual level. [Note: To prevent possible undesired noises during use, leave the volume controls of unused channels, (which the corresponding transmitter off) turned off in the amp or mixer. The audio should only be "live" if the transmitter is on.] If you want to use the 401X Quad as it own mixer (your amplifier, effect or mixing board should have 12dB or more gain select on), you can connect to the MIX AF OUTPUT (8) which provides a mixed line output of up to all four channels, with the relative volume of each channel in the mix determined by that channel's VOLUME CONTROL (6). a. Instrument Connection (using the WGT instrument transmitter) Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the AF OUTPUT JACK (8) on the rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into amplifier, effect or mixing board. Adjust the VOLUME CONTROL (6) on the 401X Quad clockwise to about 3/4 rotation until the volume level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughly equivalent to direct instrument cord connection. Turning the volume up to maximum will provide 4dB gain over a cord. b. Microphone Connection (using the WLT transmitter with either a headset or lavalier microphone or the WHT handheld microphone transmitter) Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the AF OUTPUT JACK (8) on the rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into amplifier, effect or mixing board. Adjust the VOLUME CONTROL (6) on the 401X Quad clockwise to about 1/2 MAX and adjust the volume control until the volume level is optimal. If the volume control is set too high, you may overload your mixer or amp. Since your 401X Quad is comprised of four separate and independent XLR output channels, it can be used with either one, two, three or four channels operating. Simply turn your mixer volume control of any channel which you are not using to minimum. If the mix line out is used, just turn down the 401X Quad receiver's volume controls. 6

5. Connecting the Audio Output
The output stage of each channel and the separate four channels mixed output of the 401X
Quad are all configured for adjustable unbalanced LINE and fixed balanced XLR line or
microphone audio outputs. The adjustable unbalanced 1/4" mix out is a low level LINE with
an output impedance of 600 ohms. The individual fixed level balanced XLR out can be
configured as high level line out with 11k ohms output impedance or microphone level out
with a 600 ohms load impedance.
For each channel you wish to use, insert an audio cord with a balanced female XLR plug into
its
AF OUTPUT (10)
jack on back of the receiver. Plug the other end of each cord into your
amplifier, effect or mixing board. Adjust volume on your mixing board so that no audio
distortion in present when amp or mixer is set at its usual level.
[Note: To prevent possible undesired noises during use, leave the volume controls of unused
channels, (which the corresponding transmitter off) turned off in the amp or mixer. The audio
should only be "live" if the transmitter is on.]
If you want to use the 401X Quad as it own mixer (your amplifier, effect or mixing board
should have 12dB or more gain select on), you can connect to the
MIX AF OUTPUT (8)
which provides a mixed line output of up to all four channels, with the relative volume of
each channel in the mix determined by that channel's
VOLUME CONTROL (6)
.
a. Instrument Connection (using the WGT instrument transmitter)
Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the
AF OUTPUT JACK (8)
on the
rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into amplifier, effect or mixing
board. Adjust the
VOLUME CONTROL (6)
on the 401X Quad clockwise to about 3/4
rotation until the volume level is comfortable for your application. This setting is roughly
equivalent to direct instrument cord connection. Turning the volume up to maximum will
provide 4dB gain over a cord.
b. Microphone Connection (using the WLT transmitter with either a headset or
lavalier microphone or the WHT handheld microphone transmitter)
Insert an audio cord with a 1/4" mono phone plug in the
AF OUTPUT JACK (8)
on the
rear panel of the receiver. Plug the other end of the cord into amplifier, effect or mixing
board. Adjust the
VOLUME CONTROL (6)
on the 401X Quad clockwise to about 1/2
MAX and adjust the volume control until the volume level is optimal. If the volume
control is set too high, you may overload your mixer or amp.
Since your 401X Quad is comprised of four separate and independent XLR output channels,
it can be used with either one, two, three or four channels operating. Simply turn your mixer
volume control of any channel which you are not using to minimum. If the mix line out is
used, just turn down the 401X Quad receiver's volume controls.
