Using the Channel Input Gain Controls
Adjusting the Gain controls for each channel permits you to fine tune the level of each of the audio inputs, since input levels usually vary. Rotate the Gain controls clockwise to increase levels. After you preset the gain levels for each input, it is recommended that you do not adjust them further, as you can cause sound level imbalances during a mix.
Connecting the Mixer Outputs
Using Headphones
Plug a pair of stereo headphones (not supplied) with a 1/4” jack into the Phones input. Using headphones not only affords you the opportunity to listen privately, but also enables you to monitor (”cue”) the incoming audio sources so you can locate an exact passage or section before mixing it in. It also gives you the opportunity to set up the relative volume level of the upcoming passage before it joins the mix.
Output to an Amplifier
To play the mixer’s output signal through your speaker system (for events such as parties, dances, conferences, etc.) connect an audio patch cord (not supplied) from the mixers AMP L and R jacks to your receiver amplifier’s left and right input jacks.
This mixer features two kinds of output jacks for you to choose from: RCA style and 1/4” type. DO NOT USE BOTH SIMULTANEOUSLY.
Output to a Tape or Digital Audio Recorder
To play the mixer’s output signal through your speaker system (for events such as parties, dances, conferences, etc.) connect an audio patch cord (not supplied) from the mixers REC L and R jacks to your receiver/amplifier’s left and right input jacks.
Booth Output
To monitor the mixer output to a second set of speakers in the DJ booth (or in a remote location) connect an audio patch cord (not supplied) from the mixers BOOTH L and R jacks to your secondary amplifier’s left and right input jacks.
CAUTION: In order to avoid sudden unpleasant sound output, adjust the output devices controls to these settings before you connect the mixer’s output jacks to these devices’ input jacks.

Listen Safely! Please observe the following:
Do not listen at extremely high volume levels. Extended,
Always start by setting the volume level to the lowest possible level before listening.
Put headphones on, and then gradually increase the volume as necessary.
Once you set the volume level do not increase it. Over a period of time, your ears adapt to a volume level and there is a temptation to increase it. Even though such an increase may not cause discomfort, it might still damage your hearing.
