USB output FROM the mixer – recording, etc:
In the USB out section [ProFX16v2, ProFX22v2, 
ProFX30v2] you may select either the main mix  
(disengaged) or subgroups 1-2 (engaged) from  
the conveniently titled USB out switch. The USB tap 
points for the subgroups are pre-fader and signals  
will show up on the DAW dependent upon how they  
are panned on the channels. 
In other words, if subgroups 1 and 2 are used to  
submix drums and those drums have a stereo image  
(e.g. overheads and toms channels are panned accord-
ing to desire), this stereo image is retained in the DAW 
inputs. Any adjustments made to the subgroup drum 
levels during the show only pertain to the live show 
itself; recording levels are not adjusted in the  
DAW unless they are adjusted on the channels.
Likewise, it is possible to record the main mix to  
take home a copy of the live show. These levels are  
also pre-main fader. Therefore, levels may be mixed  
up or down in the DAW later depending on the needs  
of the recording versus the live show. The end result  
is that fade-ins and/or fade-outs made during the  
show do not affect recorded levels.
4. Main L/R XLR Outputs
The male XLR connectors provide a balanced  
line-level signal that represents the end of the mixer 
chain, where the fully mixed stereo signal enters the 
real world. Connect these to the left and right inputs  
of your main power amplifiers, powered speakers,  
or serial effects processor (like a graphic equalizer  
or compressor/limiter).
They are wired as follows, according to standards 
specified by the AES (Audio Engineering Society):
XLR Balanced Wiring:
     Pin 1 = Shield (ground) 
     Pin 2 = Positive (+ or hot) 
     Pin 3 = Negative (– or cold)
The main L/R XLR outputs are located on  
the rear panel of the ProFX8v2 and ProFX12v2 
and on the front panel of the ProFX16v2, 
ProFX22v2, and ProFX30v2.
The XLR outputs are 6 dB hotter than  
the TRS outputs.

Panel Features
Connections and Channel Strip
The vertical channel strips look very 
similar, and have only a few differences 
between them. Each channel works 
independently, and just controls the 
signals plugged into the inputs directly 
above them.
5. Mic Inputs
ProFXv2 mixers use 3-pin female 
XLR connectors on all microphone  
inputs, with pin 1 wired to the  
grounded (earthed) shield,  
pin 2 wired to the high (hot  
or positive polarity) side of  
the audio signal and pin 3 wired 
to the low (cold or negative  
polarity) side of the signal.
These female XLR connectors 
accept balanced mics or line level 
inputs from almost any type of source. 
The Vita mic preamps feature higher fidelity and  
headroom rivaling any standalone mic preamp on  
the market today.
We use phantom-powered, balanced  inputs just like 
the big mega-consoles, for  exactly the same reason: This 
kind of circuit is   excellent at rejecting hum and noise. 
Professional ribbon, dynamic, and condenser  
mics all sound excellent through these inputs.  
The mic/line inputs will handle any kind of level  
you can toss at them, without overloading. 
Microphone-level signals are passed through  
the mixer's splendid microphone preamplifiers  
to become line-level signals.
They are wired as follows, according to standards 
specified by the AES (Audio Engineering Society).
XLR Balanced Wiring:
     Pin 1 = Shield (ground) 
     Pin 2 = Positive (+ or hot) 
     Pin 3 = Negative (– or cold)
