Stereo Linking

The two inputs of EVO 4 can be stereo linked, which allows you to match the
gain for both left and right channels at the same level.

This would be used when recording an instrument using two microphones,

such as a piano or guitar, or if inputting a stereo line signal like a synth or DJ
decks.

To do this, press down the 1 and 2 buttons at the same time.

Phantom Power 48V

Some microphones will require phantom power in order to function. This is

48 volts of power that is sent via the XLR cable and this powers up the mi-
crophone and allows it to work.

Microphones that require phantom power are typically condenser

microphones. In rare cases, microphones can be damaged by providing
phantom power to them so we’d recommend checking the documentation
for your microphone to see if you need to provide phantom power or not.

To enable phantom power on EVO 4, simply press the channel button you
wish to use phantom power on and then press the 48v button. This will then
remain lit red to remind you that you have phantom power on.

Opening the Loop-back mixer gives you a small mixer window enabling you to
control what is sent to your Loop-back Left and Right Inputs

This gives you the ability to take audio playback from your computer and
capture this in your recording software, or send it to a streaming service. The
mixer also gives you the possibility to blend in either of your two inputs, perfect
for capturing gameplay footage or recording a Skype conversation.

The Loop-back mixer is opened by going to the EVO Menu and selecting Show
Loop-back Mixer. The Loop-back mixer offers the following channels to blend
into your loop-back input:

Mic 1

This is the input from input 1 on EVO 4 itself. This would be either the Mic/Line
input on the rear or the instrument input if you have something connected to it.
This channel includes a pan control to allow you to send your input to either the
left or right side of your speakers.

Mic 2

This is the Mic/Line input 2 on EVO 4 and takes signal from the second Mic/line
input on the rear of EVO 4. Like Mic 1, this includes a pan control.

DAW 1+2

This is the main playback from your computer and what is usually sent to your
speakers or headphones. If you are listening back to your loop-back while you
are recording or streaming then you should keep this fader down or you may
get feedback.

Loop-back 1+2

These are your dedicated loop-back outputs which are separate from your
normal playback outputs. This allows you to loop-back audio which is different
to what you are listening to.
