Well,
I spoke with support today & he would not let me talk to the tech :sad:
It seems others don't have or see this as being a problem.
He asked me to email the issue in detail so I sent this:
We'll see :roll:

Hello,
Here's a link to the topic related to & describing this problem.
It's on the LAB, Prodogy Pro Forums.
http://www.groupdiy.com/index.php?topic=24239
To sum up the problems:
My console doesn't like the DC being applied to it's output & causes distortion & degrades the sound.
I HAVE figured this part of the problem out - There is NO coupling cap between the output of my console & the CONTROL ROOM (FET) SWITCHING CIRCUIT.
There is however a coupling cap protecting the final stage before output (Fader Booster amp)... which DOES come before the FET switching to protect it under NORMAL circumstances.
This is where the problem lies... MOST equipment does not have DC @ their INPUT.
And when they do, THEY usually compensate & protect other equipment by using an AC coupling cap or transformer.
*My BIGGEST concern:*
ALL of my other PRO equipment that has differentially balanced outputs - their FINAL output coupling caps have the *+ side of the cap* facing their Op-Amp...
*So the DC coming from the UA 2192 is hitting the WRONG (-) (Negative) side of the caps... which can degrade sound quality & possibly damage the caps.*
I'd like to know why UA would put out a piece of PRO equipment, knowing this would happen & if you are even aware of it & the possibility of damaging or degrading the sound of other devices in the process?
Thank you,
We'll see :roll:
