CONNECTIONS

Despite the Tube MP Studio V3™’s sophistication, it is easy to interface the

unit with a wide variety of equipment. All inputs and outputs, are located on

the rear panel. Standard ¼” and XLR inputs and outputs make patching

simple.

¼” INPUT JACK

The ¼” Input jack is for instrument and line level inputs. It has a high

input impedance to minimize any loading effects on instrument

pickups. It can also handle up to +22 dBu signals for line level signals.

Though not normally suggested, both input jacks can be used

simultaneously, in a pinch, to sum two signals. The signal present at

the XLR jack will tend to attenuate the signal of the ¼” input.

XLR INPUT JACK

The XLR Input jack is primarily intended for microphone input, and as

such can furnish Phantom Power when needed. It can handle up to

+14 dBu signals, which is the hottest signal you would get out of any

microphone. For even hotter input signals, you should use the ¼” input

jack. The XLR Input jacks medium input impedance is extremely flat

over a wide frequency range, which allows it to be musically neutral to

virtually any microphone (one of the Tube MP Studio V3™'s lesser

known secrets).

XLR OUTPUT JACK

The XLR Output jack of the Tube MP Studio V3™ is active balanced.

You may use it in an unbalanced configuration without harm to the

output circuitry. The XLR output can provide a hefty signal level

(+28dBu) at a low impedance, so make sure that you do not overdrive

equipment with sensitive inputs. When using it on the front end of a
