Introduction

Here is how to connect a T8S ToneMatch mixer to two L1 Model IIs.

Connect the T8S to L1 Model II

1/4 inch (6.3 mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve Outputs


The output from the T8S ToneMatch mixer is a balanced mono 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve and the input on the L1 Model II is a balanced mono 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve so use a cable like this.

Connect the ToneMatch Power Supply to the T8S ToneMatch mixer for power.

Set the L1 Model II Analog Input Trims to about 9:00 o'clock.

XLR Outputs


The output from the T8S is a balanced mono XLR and the input on the L1 Model II is a balanced mono 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve so use a cable like this.

L1 Model II Gain Staging

For each L1 Model II


L1 Model II Analog Input

The Analog input is a 1/4 inch (6.3 mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve balanced input jack.


Analog input trim (volume, or gain) control

Setting the trim level on the Model II Power Stand is a one-time step. Once you have matched the output of the ToneMatch mixer to the input of the L1 you don't need to adjust it again.

T4S/T8S ToneMatch Mixers
  1. Connect the source device Main Output to the L1 Model II Analog Input
  2. Set the Analog Input trim to 9:00 o'clock. Control the volume with the Master Volume on the ToneMatch mixer.

    If you set the input trim higher, you will have excessive line noise.
  3. If the Signal/Clip indicator glows red, decrease the Trim level so that it glows only green or yellow.
For third-party mixers
  1. Set the Trim control on the power stand to the 0 (zero) position.
  2. Connect the third-party mixer Main Output to the L1 Model II Analog Input
  3. Adjust the volume of the third-party Main Output to the reference or nominal output level.
    • On analog consoles this may be marked as unity or 0 dB.
    • On digital consoles this may be marked as -18 dBFS[1][2]. The exact value (-18 dBFS to -20 dBFS) may vary depending your location[3].
    • Refer to the manual for the third-party for details.
  4. If the Signal/Clip indicator glows red, decrease the Trim level so that it glows only green or yellow.

Model 1S Analog Input

  1. ↑ dBFS
  2. ↑ dBU vs dBFS
  3. ↑ dBFS Analog Levels
