== Mixers ==
 
=== Model I and Classic ===
 
===== XLR to XLR =====
 
The XLR inputs for Channels 1 and 2 are intended for microphone level inputs. <br>
 
*If your source (mixer or CD/DVD player) has XLR outputs, check to see if you have the option to set it to a microphone level output. If so, use that setting.<br>
*If your source has XLR outputs at line-level (most likely) then you will probably need a [[Pad]] between the source and the [[Model I nl]] (or [[Classic nl]]) Power Stand. <br>
*You may be able to make things work without the [[Pad]] by turning down the output from the source and turning down the trim at the Power Stand. If it sounds okay then you are probably fine. If you cannot get enough a good sounding signal without an excess of noise then try a [[Pad]].
 
===== &frac14; inch jack inch to &frac14; inch =====
If your mixer has &frac14; inch jack outputs, these are almost certainly at line-level and should work well with any of the &frac14; inch jack inputs (Channels 1, 2, 3, 4) on a {{Model I nl}} or {{Classic nl}}.
 
There are several articles related to using specific mixers with the [[Model I nl]] and [[Classic nl]].&nbsp; Here is a list of what is available: [[Mixer|Mixers and connection recommendations]]<br> <br>
