1. ED 100 might look like this eries D FRONT PANEL FEATURES CHANNEL INPUTS AE As discussed in the Basic Setup Section the Channel Inputs receive signals from the drum system mixer outputs These inputs are high impedance and will accept signals over a wide dynamic range CHANNEL GAIN CONTROLS B F The Channel Gain Controls allow individual volume adjust ments of each incoming signal Adjusting the individual Chan nel Gain Controls will affect both the overall loudness of the ED 100 s output and the balance between channels Some experimentation will benecessary to determine the best overall balance between channels Regardless ofthe typeof electronic m system used setting of the Channel Gain controls above 12 o clock is not recommended Setting the Channel Gain controls above 5 may result in unwanted distortion and or premature engaging of the DDT Compression Circuit see the DDT Compression Section for further information MONITOR CONTROLS C G Each channel is provided with a Monitor Controland monitor preamp These controls are completely independent o the ED 100 s internal signal flow signal from these controls is routed directly to the monitor jacks on the rear pane see the Monitor Jacks Section for further information EFFECTS PATCH JACKS D H Each channel is provided with a stereo type Effects Patch Jack These jacks are used with external devices to provide
