1. gt o WAMI INDUS TRIES SWAMP MS8 MK2 USER MANUAL Featuring genuine Neutrik NC3FAAH connectors MIC LINE SPLITTER SX XLR IN 16X XLR OUT Taking care of your MS8 MK2 Use the SWAMP MS8 MK2 to split eight balanced low impedance microphone signals into sixteen balanced low impedance microphone signals eight pairs Each channel of the MS8 MK2 provides one direct output and one transformer isolated output from a single microphone Applications include sending the direct outputs to the main or FOH Front Of House mixer and the second outputs being outputs being sent to a monitor or recording mixer The direct outputs pass phantom power from the main mixer to the microphone for use with condenser microphones SPECIFICATIONS NOTE All measurements made from TRANSFORMER ISOLATED MICROPHONE OUTPUT with PAD SWITCH out off and 150 Ohm balanced source feeding MI CROPHONE INPUT and 1K Ohm load connected to e FREQUENCY RESPONSE e TOTAL HARMONIC DISTORTION The SWAMP MS8 MK2 includes a ground lift switch on each isolated output to reduce noise due to ground loops between connected equipment For versatility the MS8 MK2 also features an attenuator pad switch on each input that can be used to connect pre amplified signals to the two microphone level outputs on each channel Typically pre amplified signals would originate from instrument preamplifiers mixers keyboards etc Rack mounting ears are reversible for Flexibil2. smoke machines Handling To prevent damage to the controls and cosmetics avoid rough handling and excessive vibration Protect the controls from damage during transit Use adequate padding if you need to ship the unit To avoid injury to yourself or damage to the equipment take care when lifting moving or carrying the unit Servicing Refer servicing to qualified technical personnel only
