23. MASTER L/R FADERS: This is the master level control for the L and R signals sent to the Left and Right Output jacks. When in Main/Monitor mode [see System Mode Switch (19)] the Monitor Fader controls the monitor signal present at the Left/Mon Power Amp Output (4). The Left and Right Faders would then control the L/R Mix present at the Right/L+R Power Amp Output (4). The nominal position for this control is the 0 dB position.

CHANNELS 7 - 8 NOTE: Channels 7 - 8 contain features that differ from the previous channels. Only those features are mentioned below. 35. RIGHT INPUT: 35 1/4" input for line level signals. The Right Input is not adjusted by the Gain 39 (26) control. The signal is then routed to the internal power amp. If the XR 800F+ is in Left/Right mode then the signal will go to the Right Speaker Output (4). In Mon/Main mode the signal is combined with the Left and 36 placed on the Right/L+R Speaker

PHANTOM POWER 39. PHANTOM POWER SWITCH: Applies 48 V DC voltage to all input XLR connectors to power microphones that require it. CAUTION! When phantom power is switched on, make sure that any channel you are plugging a mic into is turned down in both the main and monitor mixes. Otherwise, there will be a loud pop in the PA. This is normal. It is best to plug all mics into their respective channels with the phantom power switched off. This reduces noise in the PA and reduces the chances o
