1. MIC/LINE INPUT Jacks: Electronically balanced inputs
that accommodate both XLR and
1

4
-inch connectors at
mic or line levels.
2. Signal/Clip LEDs: Color indicates the signal status of the
corresponding MIC/LINE input, as explained in the Audio
Inputs and Outputs section below.
3. INPUT Knobs: Control the level of their corresponding
inputs.
4. CHANNEL LED Indicator: Displays the frequency chan-
nel that is being transmitted (1-8).
5. SELECT Button: Press to select a frequency channel.
6. Antenna: Permanently mounted, break–resistant anten-
na transmits the mix to the P2R Receiver.
7. Power Cord Strain Relief: Thread the power cable
through these slots to secure the DC connection.
8. DC IN: Plug the power supply into this connector. The unit
remains powered on until you unplug it.
9. SPLIT OUTs: Each male XLR output jack duplicates the
signal of the corresponding mic/line input. Front panel set-
tings have no effect on split output level.
Audio Inputs and Outputs
The INPUT knobs control both MIC and LINE level signals. As a general guide-
line, set the knob to the left of twelve o’clock for line level signals, and to the right
of twelve o’clock for microphone levels.
Observe the signal/clip LEDs. If they are consistently red, decrease the level
with the corresponding INPUT knob.
NOTE: If the level is decreased all the way and the LED
remains red, the level of the input from the previous device
in the audio chain (mixer, click track, digital sequencer, etc.)
is too high and should be decreased.
To pass audio signal directly through the TransMixer, use the corresponding SPLIT OUT on the rear panel of the device. Input settings
do not affect the level of the signal at the SPLIT OUT connectors.
* The P2T inputs have limiting circuitry that activates automatically when the input level is too high.

Phantom Power
Although the TransMixer itself does not provide phantom power for condenser microphones, the SPLIT OUT connectors pass phantom pow-
er from a phantom power supply to a microphone connected to the corresponding input jack. You can connect equipment that supplies phan-
tom power to the TransMixer without harming the unit.
CAUTION!: Use a “direct box” when connecting guitars, keyboards, and other instruments to a mixing console through the P2T.
The phantom power that mixing consoles provide for microphones can damage other instruments. Connect the instrument to the
direct box then connect the direct box to the TransMixer input.
Selecting a Frequency Channel
1. Press and hold the SELECT button until the CHANNEL LED indicator begins to flash.
2. When the LED indicator is flashing, press the SELECT button to scroll to the desired frequency channel.
3. Release the button. After 4 seconds the display will stop flashing and the P2T will automatically switch to the
specified channel.
IMPORTANT:
Never set more than ONE TransMixer to the same frequency channel, or interference will occur.
