HI-Z INPUT
The ¼” jack accepts single-ended outputs ranging from guitar pick-ups to active outputs from
keyboards and drum machines. It provides a high load impedance of 1.5 meg ohms and will
achieve a gain of 50dB. The MIC/LINE SWITCH must be in the MIC position for the Hi-Z input
to operate. This switching jack will disconnect the XLR MIC input , however, it is recom-
mended practice to unplug any mic cable that may be connected to the Mic Input when using
the HI-Z INPUT.
LIMITER RESPONSE
Essentially, LIMITER RESPONSE is a hi-pass filter to the limiter detection circuit. With this con-
trol set to the “0” position the PAL + MkIII will provide approximately equal peak reduction at
all frequencies.
With LIMITER RESPONSE set fully clockwise, frequencies below 1-kHz gradually require more
energy to initiate gain reduction. For frequencies below 100Hz, gain reduction initiation is down
approximately 10dB. This can be very useful in reducing over-activity in program material or
for compressing mid to high frequencies while avoiding typical “pumping” and “breathing”
artifacts in the audio.
LIMITER RESPONSE - OPERATIONAL NOTE:
For uniform limiter initiation and response in MONO or LINK mode, both channels require
LIMITER RESPONSE to be at the same setting. This is also applies to PEAK REDUCTION.
Additional PEAK REDUCTION may be needed to offset the reduction in limiting action that
occurs as you increase the setting of the LIMITER RESPONSE.
MIC/LINK
Unique to the PAL Plus MkIII, this switch allows for inter-connection between two PAL micro-
phone preamplifiers (a second PAL and inter-connect cable is required). Because of where (in
the circuit) the connection is made, the microphone only “sees” one preamp and is loaded as it
would normally be, using just one preamp. Having one mic drive two mic-pres offers many
sonic and stylistic possibilities, especially when one considers the broad range of tonal variation
of the PALs variable gain structure, variable feedback circuitry and limiter functions. Layering
from a pair of PALs is encouraged.
