Using the Mono/Stereo Mode Switch

When the MASTER MONO/STEREO switch is in the MONO position, the mixer combines the right and left channels and sends them to the OUTPUT R and L jacks. These combined outputs can be used by a monoaural amplifier, such as a PA amp.

In the STEREO position, right and left channels remain separate. The mixer outputs can be used by a stereo amplifier or recorder.

The ZONE MONO/STEREO switch works similarly, except that its setting affects the ZONE R & L Outs.

Using the Crossfader with the Assign Switches

For crossfading effects, you can assign any of the four channels to either A or B sides of the crossfade mix using the Crossfade assign knobs.

When the crossfade slider is in the center position, the two assigned channels play equally. Sliding the control towards the A position will increase the level of A and fade out B proportionally to the distance from center. Likewise, sliding the control towards the B position will increase the level of B and fade out A.

Using the Echo Controls (PYD-1928 and PYD-1948)

The built-in Echo effect is applied to the total mix. To turn on the Echo mode and activate the DELAY/REPEAT cycle, press the ECHO ON/OFF switch.

To change the length of time a sound is repeated, increase of decrease the REPEAT control. To vary the time in between the repeats, increase or decrease the DELAY control.

To adjust the output level of the echo, increase or decrease the LEVEL control.

Using the Sound Effects (PYD-1938 and PYD-1948)

There are eight pre-programmed sound effects for your selection. Press and hold any button to generate a sound which is added to the mix. The sound will play continuously until you release the button.

The SPEED control lets you raise or lower the pitch of the sound effect, and the VOLUME control allows you to increase or decrease the effect’s volume level within the mix.

Using the Digital Sampler (PYD-1958)

The PYD-1958 mixer contains a digital sampler circuit which can record 5 different samples to the internal recording IC. These samples can then be assigned to CH 1, CH 2, CH 3, CH 4 and the MIC channel for playback. At the time of playback, the SPEED control can be adjusted to change the pitch of the sample.

Follow these steps to record a sample:

1.Play the audio source for recording as a sample.

2.While it is playing, press the desired cue/sample channel assign button (i.e., CH 1, CH 2, CH 3, CH 4 or MIC).

3.To record the source to that channel, set the SAMPLER MODE switch to the RECORD position and press the START/STOP button to begin recording. The LED will go on, indicating recording is in progress. To stop recording, press the START/STOP button again. Please note that the recording IC is limited to 12-second samples, so in the event you do not press stop, it will automatically stop after 12 seconds
