*Please connect the output to the XLR microphone input terminal using an XLR female-to-XLR male microphone cable. Connecting to a TS/TRS phone line input terminal may result in noise, insufficient volume, or noticeable noise when increasing the gain, preventing normal use.

*When connecting to an XLR input terminal of a mixer, etc., please use with the phantom power from the mixer turned OFF, as this may cause malfunction.

*The phantom power supplied by the effects unit is approximately +21V (measured value), so condenser microphones requiring +48V cannot be used.
