Introduction
This guide will walk you through setting up a microphone, guitar, keyboard, or other instruments with the Rockville Titan Array System. The system features a combo jack input, allowing you to connect devices using either a ¼-inch (6.35mm) instrument cable or an XLR cable.
Step 1: Understanding the Input Modes
The Titan Array System has a combo jack input that supports:
- Microphone (XLR or ¼-inch cable)
- Instruments (Guitar/Bass – ¼-inch cable)
- Line-Level Devices (Keyboard/Synth – ¼-inch cable)
Next to the combo jack, there is a mode button that switches between:
- Mic/Guitar Mode (Button Pressed) – Use for microphones or guitars.
- Line Mode (Button Unpressed) – Use for keyboards or synths.
Step 2: Connecting a Microphone
- Use an XLR cable:
- Plug the female end into your microphone.
- Plug the male end into the mic input on the back of the subwoofer.
- Press the Mode Button to Mic/Guitar mode.
- Raise the Microphone Volume knob on the back of the subwoofer.
- Test the microphone by speaking into it (Check 1-2).
Step 3: Connecting a Guitar or Bass
- Use a ¼-inch instrument cable:
- Plug one end into the guitar or bass.
- Plug the other end into the guitar input on the back of the subwoofer.
- Press the Mode Button to Mic/Guitar mode.
- Raise the Guitar Volume knob on the back of the subwoofer.
- Turn up the volume on the guitar and play to test.
Step 4: Connecting a Keyboard or Synth
- Use a ¼-inch instrument cable:
- Plug one end into the keyboard/synth output.
- Plug the other end into the line input on the back of the subwoofer.
- Leave the Mode Button Unpressed (Line Mode).
- Raise the Line Level knob on the back of the subwoofer.
- Play the keyboard to test the sound.
Step 5: Connecting a Microphone and an Instrument at the Same Time
You can connect both a microphone and an instrument simultaneously:
- Option 1 (Mic Louder than Instrument):
- Microphone → Mic Input
- Guitar/Keyboard → Line Input
- Option 2 (Instrument Louder than Mic):
- Guitar → Guitar Input
- Microphone → Line Input
Adjust the volume knobs accordingly to balance the sound.
Conclusion
Setting up a microphone and instrument on your Rockville Titan Array System is quick and easy. Whether you’re performing live, rehearsing, or setting up for a small event, this system provides versatile sound control.
