Operation
Understanding Cascading Input Jacks
MLT uses switched, or normalled, connections between some of its input jacks. With no cable inserted, a signal flows down from one input jack to another. This connection is overridden when a cable is inserted. Normalled inputs are indicated on the front panel with arrows.
Example Patches
Installation
Requirements
- EuroRack enclosure.
- Two M2.5 x 6mm mounting screws, or screws provided or specified by the enclosure manufacturer.
- #1 Phillips head screwdriver, or hand tool provided or specified by the enclosure manufacturer.
Procedure
- Power off and disconnect the EuroRack enclosure's power supply and any attached DC adapters.
- Ensure that no mounting screws are in any holes in the area where you wish to mount the module.
