The MIC inputs are being overdriven. Even with the microphone gain adjusted to its lowest setting, the maximum signal level that the MIC inputs of the smaller Mackie mixers can handle is +14 dBu. In the +4 dBu trim setting, the LynxONE is capable of delivering a +20 dBu signal. To solve this problem use 1/4" line inputs of the mixer. This requires the use of XLR to TRS adapters as described in the "External Connections" section. The LynxONE should never be connected to MIC inputs that have phantom power applied. |
