Guided Tour - S83 Rear Panel
1: Power switch - As you may have guessed, this is what you use to turn the
S83 on and off. The built-in protection relay circuitry (which mutes the outputs
for approximately five seconds after powering on) prevents power-on “thumping,”
which can potentially damage connected speakers.
2: Fuse holder - Insert a 6 amp fuse here for 120 volt operation. Insert a 3.5
amp fuse here for 220 volt operation.
3: Effect Returns - These unbalanced inputs allow you to route signal from
external devices such as effects processors to the Effects Return section of the
S83. Stereo devices should be connected to the matched pairs 1-2 and 3-4;
mono devices should be connected to one input in each pair (that is, 1 and 3 or 2
and 4). Because the S83 is a monophonic system, stereo signals routed to
either pair of Effects returns are automatically mixed to mono. See the “Using
the Effects Sends and Returns” section in this manual for more information.
4: Effects Sends - These unbalanced outputs allow you to route signal from
each of the two discrete Effects Sends to external devices such as effects
processors. Effects Send 1 is pre-fader and pre-EQ, while Effects Send 2 is
post-fader and post-EQ. See the “Using the Effects Sends and Returns” section
in this manual for more information.
