The CFX·20 mixer shall accommodate 16 microphone signals: mono channels 1-16; 20 line signals: mono channels 1-16, and stereo channels 17-20. The CFX Series mixers shall have 2 stereo pairs of Aux Return inputs, a Send/ Return channel Insert for each mic/line channel, 2 stereo pairs of Main Mix outputs, 1 stereo pair of RCA-type Tape Inputs, 1 stereo pair of RCA-type Tape Outputs, 1 stereo pair of Utility outputs, 2 Aux Send outputs, 4 Submaster outputs, and 1 stereo headphone output. The mixers shall be fitted with 1 rocker-type Power switch, one 3-pin power receptacle, 1 BNC socket providing 12 VDC for fitting an external lamp (not included), 1 EFX Bypass footswitch jack, and shall be entirely self contained. MONO CHANNELS: Each monaural input channel shall have an electronically balanced microphone-level input using XLR-3-F-type connectors, accepting nominal microphone levels between ­50 dBu and +4 dBu via rotary Trim controls. 48 V phantom power shall be available via a globally-controlled switch. Each monaural input channel shall also have an electronically balanced line level input, accepting a nominal line-level of between ­10 dBV and +4 dBu, using 1/4" TRS phone jacks. In addition, each monaural input channel shall include an unbalanced insert connection using 1/4" TRS phone jacks (tip=send, ring=return, sleeve=ground), delivering and accepting nominal levels from ­10 dBV to +4 dBu. Each stereo input channel shall have left and right electronically balanced line-level inputs, accepting nominal levels from ­10 dBV to +4 dBu. These jacks shall be fitted with internal switching contacts to accommodate monaural configuration.
