Introduction All audio connections are on balanced XLRs (wired pin 2 hot) featuring gold plated connectors. The mic inputs and transformer balanced outputs are mounted on the front panel for easy access, and the two electronically balanced outputs are on the rear panel along with the duplicate set of inputs. An integral switch mode power supply automatically adapts to mains voltages in the range 100 to 240 volts (50 to 60Hz). An LED on the front panel indicates when power is applied to the

Introduction Features The Square ONE Splitter has eight channels, each with: 1 • Two mic preamps, based on those used in the acclaimed Midas XL8 Live Performance System ; one drives the two electronically balanced outputs and the other drives the transformer isolated output. • Two paralleled inputs, one front and one rear. • Two electronically balanced outputs (rear panel), derived from the front control knob-adjusted mic preamp. • One transformer isolated output (front panel), derived from a

Introduction How to use the Square ONE Splitter This section shows you how to get the most out of your Square ONE Splitter. Using the main inputs To maximise the sonic benefits of active splitting, the Square ONE Splitter should be located close to the mic sources and connected to them as directly as is practical. In this way the unit can provide active drive to all the distributing cable systems. This massively reduces capacitive and resistive loading on the mic, as compared to other non-a

Introduction Using the parallel inputs Typically, the mic signals - from different stage locations - are fed to the splitting systems using multi-channel stage boxes and cables. This infrastructure is normally subjected to tremendous stresses during the show and during set up/breakdown, and it is not unusual to develop intermittent faults on some individual signal lines. If this occurs there is normally little time available to de-bug the problem fully before the show. However, the Square

Getting started Connecting to unbalanced equipment Important: We recommend that you only connect balanced devices to your Square ONE Splitter. However, if you do have to connect unbalanced devices, we recommend that you use the Klark Teknik DN100 DI box to balance the signal first. Ideally, you will be making the best use of the low-noise high-headroom balanced inputs of the Square ONE Splitter by connecting to similarly balanced equipment. However, if you do have to connect to unbalanced
