Fig. 4.1: ULTRALINK PRO front panel

The Behringer ULTRALINK PRO has six identical channels. Each channel is 

equipped with two rotary controls, one button and eight LEDs. Moreover there is 

a main section with two rotary controls, one button and eight LEDs.

Fig. 4.2: Control elements on the front panel

(1) 

The MAIN INPUT LEVEL control sets the main input gain, before the 

signal reaches the input bus. In SPLIT mode, the MAIN INPUT LEVEL control 

determines the common output level for all mono outputs.

(2) 

The 4-digit INPUT LEVEL meter informs you about the input level of the 

main input within a range from -24 to +6 dB.

(3) 

By depressing the MAIN LINK switch you can route the MAIN INPUT signal 

to the MAIN OUT. This way it is possible to route a maximum of eight input 

channels to the main mix.

(4) 

The MAIN OUTPUT LEVEL control adjusts the output level applied to the 

main outputs. The levels present at the six mono outputs are not affected. 

Summing the signal levels of several mono channels can overload the main 

output stage. The MAIN OUTPUT LEVEL control is therefore used to adjust the 

overall output level.

(5) 

The 4-digit OUTPUT LEVEL meter informs you about the output level of the 

main input within a range from -24 to +6 dB.

(6) 

This SPLIT/MIX switch sets the respective channel to SPLITTER or MIXER mode.

(7) 

The LEVEL control determines the signal level of the individual channels. 

In SPLIT mode, the LEVEL control sets the output level of the mono channels. 

In MIX mode, however, it controls the amount of the mono channel’s input 

signal feeding into the main output section; at the same time, the level of 

the mono channel can be determined, which—owing to the maximum gain 

of +15 dB—allows for converting, e.g., home recording levels (-10 dBV) 

into studio levels (+4 dBu).

(8) 

The 8-digit OUTPUT LEVEL meter informs you about the output level of each 

channel within a range from -24 to +18 dB.

(9) 

With the BALANCE/PAN control you can set the balance between the left 

and right main signals. In SPLIT mode, the main input signal is routed to the 

mono output, with the BALANCE control determining the balance beween 

the left and right main signal portions. In MIX mode, the mono inputs are 

mixed and routed via the LEVEL control to the main outputs, with the PAN 

controls determining the allocation of the mono inputs to the left and right 

main outputs.

(10) 

FUSE HOLDER / VOLTAGE SELECTOR. Please make sure that your local 

voltage matches the voltage indicated on the unit, before you attempt to 

connect and operate the ULTRALINK PRO. Blown fuses may only be replaced 

by fuses of the same type and rating.

(11) 

MAINS CONNECTION. Use the enclosed power cord to connect the unit to 

the mains. Please also note the instructions given in chapter 3 “Installation”.

(12) 

MAIN INPUTS. These are the main audio inputs of your ULTRALINK PRO, 

available as balanced XLR connectors. They may feed the mono outputs of all 

channels which are operated in SPLIT mode.

(13) 

MAIN OUTPUTS. These are the main outputs, available as balanced XLR 

connectors. They may be fed either by the left and right main inputs or by 

any of the six mono inputs (or a combination of both).

(14) 

MONO INPUTS (channel 1 to 4). These are the mono inputs. 

Connection takes place via balanced XLR connectors.

(15) 

MONO OUTPUTS (channel 1 to 4). These are the mono outputs, available as 

balanced XLR connectors.

(16) 

MONO INPUTS (channel 5 to 6). These are the mono inputs. 

Connection takes place via balanced phone jacks.

(17) 

MONO OUTPUTS (channel 5 to 6). These are the mono outputs, available as 

balanced phone jacks.
