Getting Started and Pow ering Up The ISA 828 is a high quality eight-channel micr ophone pr eamplifier, which can be used to r ecor d microphone, line-l evel or instrument sour ces. Micr ophones and line-lev el sour ces f or all eight inputs are c onnected on the r ear panel, whilst instruments ar e plugged dir ectl y into the fr ont panel (inputs [...]

F r ont Panel Input Stage Eight number ed sections ar e included on the fr ont panel for setting up each of the eight anal ogue inputs. Input Pr essing Input steps thr ough each of the thr ee inputs, as indicated by the c orr esponding LEDs. When the Mic LED is lit, the micr ophone input is active etc. Henc e a mixtur e of micr ophone, line and ins[...]

Mode 1 Mic Gain Range 0-30 With the 30-60 switch off, the st epped gain dial operates ov er a gain range of 0dB to +30dB, the l evel of gain chosen being indicated on the fr ont panel by the outer arc of y ellow number s around the gain knob. Mode 2 Mic Gain Range 30-60 With the 30-60 switch on (illuminated), the s tepped gain dial operates o ver a[...]

Insert In Activating the INSERT switch (illuminat ed when active) br eaks the signal path of the channel, so that the signal connected t o the ADC Input 25-pin connector on the r ear panel routes t o the digital output car d (if connected) rather than the dir ect mic, line or instrument signal. Note that the mic, line or ins trument signal will sti[...]

Mode 2. Meters Pr e ADC switch engaged This is the mode to use when the anal ogue input signals ar e being rout ed to other har dwar e devices (such as dynamics pr oces sors) using the analogue outputs/ADC Input on the r ear panel (acting as sends/returns) bef or e converting t o digital. Obviousl y, the optional digital output car d should be inst[...]

Analogue Inputs On the r ear panel, ther e ar e 8 XLR inputs for c onnecting micr ophones and 8 1/4” TRS inputs for line-l evel sour ces. Each one is number ed acc or dingly and c orr esponds to the r ele vant section on the fr ont panel.
