| Listen Four Quarters [L4Q] |
The Listen Four Quarters is a four channel stereo mixer with 1/4" (6.35mm) TRS balanced outputs and 1/8" (3.5mm) headphones output. Two mono channels with Pan knobs and two stereo channels with dual inputs provide optimal compatibility with both stereo and mono signals. The Listen Four Quarters can be daisy-chained to other Listen modules to create a larger mixer with sub-mix outputs.
Connect your Listen Four Quarters to other Listen modules or the WAV Recorder using the Audio jumper cable
Basic Features:
- Four input channels (two with stereo inputs, two with mono inputs and a Pan knob)
- Headphone and main 1/4" outputs, each with separate Level knob
- Balanced TRS outputs, switchable to stereo
- Line level output driver with zero impedance, capable of driving long cables
- Low noise, cross-talk, and bleed-through
- Anti-pop feature that silences pops and thumps when the power is turned on
- Headers in back allow for connecting to other Listen Four or Listen Four Quarters modules to create a mixer with 8, 12, 16, or more channels and multiple sub-mix outputs
- Connects via headers to WAV Recorder module for recording final mix without using patch cables
- Signal lights for each channel and output mix

- Channel bleed-through (channel attenuation):
- Test conditions: Test signal input into each channel with Level knob at 0% and Main Level knob at 100%. Frequencies from 20Hz to 20kHz tested. Result given as a ratio of the signal measured on main output jacks with channel Level knob at 0%, to the signal measured with channel Level knob at 100%. Worst-case results for any channel and frequency reported.
- Output jack tip: -106dB
- Channel cross-talk:
- Test conditions: Test signal input into each channel. Level knob at 0%, and other channel Level knobs at 100%. Main Level knob at 100%. Frequencies from 20Hz to 20kHz tested. Measured signal subtracted from signal with all Level knobs at 0%, and result given in dB as a ratio to output signal with test channels' Level knob at 100%. Worst-case results for any channel and frequency reported. reported.
