from piezo pickups, magnetic pickups, even active electronics like the Sunrise™ active
magnetics, or the Taylor™ Expression System™, It even works with 18V active bass guitar
preamps and iOS devices like iPods™ and iPads™. The gain will need to be set to match
your input source, and your personal playing style. The X7 really shines when used with
SBT (multiple soundboard transducers) like Elevation™ premium transducer sets or JJB™ Prestige
330s. Using those transducers with the X7 reveals tone exactly like a large diaphragm condenser
mic, without the feedback that plagues most piezo systems.
The input jack when unplugged, disconnects the batteries from the power supply to extend battery
life. It does not remove phantom power however, to prevent audio spikes into the PA when
unplugging the input jack.
Tip: Engage the mute switch when disconnecting the input jack when using phantom
power and the XLR out. It minimizes any noise or popping through the XLR line when
swapping instruments or unplugging.
The tuner out is activated with the mute switch. The tuner out is completely isolated from the
audio path unless it is active. For accurate tuning with less false triggering, the tuner out is
processed with a sub-sonic and a seperate low frequency filter.
The Aux out is a high definition unbalanced and isolated direct out. It also has it's own
dedicated volume control. The Aux out is designed for ultra-high quality recording and for
stage monitoring. The Aux output bypasses the equalizer and line driver for a transparent
output that sounds even cleaner than our X5 reference preamp. The Aux output is a low
impedance line out at 4.7k. It is still a high enough impedance to drive most pedals and processors.
Tip: When recording, run the XLR and the Aux output to separate channels and apply
compression to just one channel for parallel compression. This is a trick used in pro
studios to add punch and sustain, without losing the brilliance or attack of the notes. This
technique also works great when using reverb and other effects to keep your transparent tone
intact. You will also find that the Aux and XLR outs are perfectly phase correct, so you may have to
flip the phase of the Aux output at the mixer when using with some pedals that reverse the phase of
the signal.
The XLR output is a true balanced output so the signal is twice as hot as similar half balanced
devices, and true balanced also means that any induced line noise is canceled out. The XLR
output has it's own dedicated volume control, and is processed by the Isometric Equalizer.
We recommend starting with the volume reduced and bring it up to a strong level on the
mixer with the faders zeroed and the mixer's gain at a low setting, for the cleanest possible signal.
Mute the channel on the mixer when turning on or off phantom power on the mixer and when switching
to phantom power or battery power on the X7 to avoid and spikes in the audio signal.
The impedance of the XLR output is ultra low at 100Ω (200Ω balanced) It is possible to get +4db
signals from the XLR balanced output. Be careful to not clip the mixer's inputs from sending a line level
signal into a microphone input, which causes distortion, and could damage the mixer.
