(3) FRONT END DIRECT OUTPUT "DIRECT OUT"
Conventional three pin male XLR connector providing balanced, line level output directly from the
front-end amplifiers (MIC, LINE, DI). This output is configured before the EQ, Compressor, De-esser,
and main outputs. This direct output is essentially equivalent to the output on an HV-3 micamp and
can be used in addition to the main outputs (below). Pin 1 is ground. Pin 2 is positive polarity. Pin 3 is
negative polarity. This line level output is capable of driving <600 ohm loads and long, high capacitance
cables. Outputs may be configured in an unbalanced configuration by grounding pin 3, or taking pin 2
directly as an unbalanced signal while floating pin 3. In the former configuration, the output is automatically
increased by 6 dB. Connector contacts are Neutrik Galvatronic gold plated. It is suggested that XLR
cable connectors used with the STT-1 employ identical plating.
(4) MAIN OUTPUT #1 "MAIN OUT - BAL"
Conventional three pin male XLR connector providing balanced, line level output from all stages of the
STT-1. Can be used simultaneously with all other outputs. Pin 1 is ground. Pin 2 is positive polarity. Pin
3 is negative polarity. This monolithic-based, balanced line level output is capable of driving <600 ohm
loads and long, high capacitance cables and has a maximum output level of +32 dBu. Outputs may be
configured in an unbalanced pin-2-hot configuration by either grounding pin 3, or taking pin 2 directly
as an unbalanced signal while floating pin 3. In the latter configuration, the output is decreased by 6 dB
