1.MIC GAIN – Adjusts the audio level of the microphone signal.

2.MIC TREBLE & BASS – Adjusts the treble (high) and bass (low) frequencies of the audio for both mic inputs.

Tip: If you experience feedback when using a microphone at loud levels, try turning down the high (treble) frequencies.

3.CHANNEL FADER – Adjusts the audio level of the corresponding channel.

4.INPUT SELECTOR – Selects the input source to be routed to the corresponding channel. Input jacks are located on the rear panel.

5.CUE – Sends the pre-fader audio Cue channel for monitoring.

6.CROSSFADER – Blends audio playing between Channels 2 and 3. Sliding this to the left plays Channel 2 and sliding to the right plays Channel 3.

Note: The crossfader is user-replaceable if it should ever wear out. Simply remove the facepanel, then remove the screws holding it in position. Replace the fader with a quality authorized replacement from your local Numark retailer only.

7.MASTER FADER – Adjusts the output volume of the Program mix.

8.STEREO / MONO – Adjusts the Program mix for stereo or mono operation.

9.STEREO LEVEL INDICATOR – Monitors the audio level of the Program mix.

10.GRAPHIC EQUALIZER (EQ) – Adjusts the high, mid-range, and low frequencies of the combined audio output from Channels 1-4. EQ compensates for differences in source material sound quality. The center frequencies of this 5-band graphic equalizer are 63Hz, 250Hz, 1kHz, 4kHz and 16kHz. Faders have a center detent for an accurate "flat” response.

Tips:

ƒBoosting (increasing) the 63Hz band will increase the deep bass tones and “kick drum” sounds, but could cause your amplifiers to “clip” or distort if set too high.

ƒSlightly cutting (decreasing) the 250Hz and 1kHz bands will give the sound some extra clarity.

ƒBoosting the 16kHz band will give the audio a sharper tone.

ƒAs a general rule, the less equalization, the better.

11.HEADPHONE MIX – Slide this to mix the Cue channel and Program mix in the headphones. When all the way to the left, only channels routed to the Cue channel will be heard. When all the way to the right, only the Program mix will be heard.

12.HEADPHONE GAIN – Adjusts the volume level of the headphone output.

13.HEADPHONE OUTPUT – Connect your ¼” headphones to this output for cueing and mix monitoring.

14.POWER SWITCH – Turns the mixer on and off. Turn on the mixer after all input devices have been connected and before you turn on amplifiers. Turn off amplifiers before you turn off the mixer.
