View source for Audio Interface in the Mix Bench


This lab has a '''Apollo x8''' audio Interface which has multiple inputs and outputs.  

== Inputs ==
* On the front there are two HI-Z inputs inputs (labelled '''HI-Z 1''' and '''HI-Z 2''')
** Theses are for low level signal like electric guitars.  Only use mono 1/4 cables.
* There are 4 XLR mic inputs on the back of the interface.
** There is a panel with 4 XLR jacks below the interface.
** These are connected to the 4 mic inputs.
** Microphones can be connected to these inputs using XLR cables (not included in the room).
** Each input has:
*** Trim control knob for setting input levels
*** Pad for reducing input levels
*** 48V Phantom Power for powering condenser microphones
*** Low cut filter.
* There are eight 1/4" line level inputs on the back.
** Theses are not connected to anything  

== Outputs ==
* Outputs 1 and 2 are connected to the '''Mackie Big Knob''' monitor controller.
* The other outputs are not being used.

== Labeling ==
* The various audio applications may refer to the inputs and outputs with slightly different names.
* We have tried to set the preferences to meaningful names but sometimes they may revert back to the default names.  
* Read the [[Apollo x8 Interface]] article for additional information
