THEORY OF OPERATION (Cont’d) maximum of 30 dB, the second potentiometer section acts as a conventional voltage divider output attenuator for lowcontrol settings. The input transformers increase the signal voltage by 21 dB. Input 1 has a second line input, phone jack J12, which operates only in the L...

MODIFICATIONS Noise Improvement for Single Inputs: The overall signal-to-noise ratio of the SE30 may be im- proved for single-input applications by disabling the two unused input channels. This automatically reduces the noise level of the mixing circuitry without changing the gain or other character...
