LA12 OPERATORS MANUAL CONTENTS:
SAFETY CONSIDERATIONS CAUTION - MAINS FUSE INSTALLATION The Drawmer LA12 is a low noise, low crosstalk distribution amplifier. The unit provides one stereo input with master 'gain' and 'balance' controls and twelve stereo outputs, each with individual output level control. It may be used to distribute one stereo signal to up to twelve different outputs. A typical application example would be for real time cassette duplication, but it may be used for a variety of other applications, such as the distribution of one stereo signal to other rooms/areas within a complex e.g. discotheques, shopping malls etc. A maximum gain of +20dB is available through the unit, which allows a wide range of 'source' and 'destination' equipment to be interfaced. An auxiliary stereo output which follows the input gain and balance controls can be linked to the input of a second LA12 if further stereo outputs are required. OPERATION The LA12 has been designed for ease of use. It operates on input levels in the range -10dB to +10dB. The signal source should be connected to the rear panel sockets marked INPUT' Left and Right , and the OUTPUT' sockets should be similarly connected to their appropriate destinations. Each of the front panel controls adjust both Left and Right channels. INPUT: The Input Level is determined by rotation of the 'Gain' control. 'Balance' control adjusts the stereo balance between Left and Right channels. OUTPUT: The 'Output' controls, numbered 1 to 12, adjust the level at the corresponding output phono connector pair on the rear panel. AUXILIARY OUTPUT: This output phono connector pair can be used to link to another LA12. The level of the output is determined by "input" level and balance controls. AUDIO CONNECTIONS All audio connections are on professional quality phono (RCA jack) connectors, with white for Left and red for Right channels. lf earth loop problems are encountered, do not disconnect the mains earth but instead, try disconnecting the co-axial screen connections to the inputs or outputs of the unit.
