P48: active mode, 48V phantom power required, LED is off
P48 : active mode, 48V phantom power required, LED is on
3 Gain slide switch // Choose between 0 dB, 6 dB and 12 dB gain
levels by adjusting the slide switch.
4 Low-cut fi lter slide switch // Choose between linear,
150 Hz (12 dB/oct) and 250 Hz (12 dB/oct) by adjusting the slide
