| Problem / Symptom | Possible Cause / Solution |
| No Sound. | Is the power ON? Based on your connections, check that you |
|
| have properly set the Input Selector Switch. Make sure that the |
|
| Input Gain, Channel Fader, and Master output are turned up. |
|
| Make sure the channels are properly assigned to the Crossfader. |
|
|
|
| No | First check that the Headphone Level knob is turned up, and then |
|
| check the Cue Source (Pre, Post, Master) and Cue Pan settings. |
|
|
|
| Mixer sounds noisy. | If a microphone is not being used, turn all its related controls |
|
| down. |
| Microphone doesn’t work. | Is the Mic gain turned up? Does the microphone require |
|
| phantom power? This mixer does not provide microphone |
|
| phantom power. |
|
|
|
| Sound is | Turn down the Input Gain Control. Check EQ settings. |
|
|
|
| Sound is | Make sure that the Phono/Line switch is selecting the proper |
|
| source input (‘Phono’ for turntables, ‘Line’ for CD players, etc. |
|
| that the Turn down the Input Gain Control and check EQ settings. |
|
|
|
| The Fader Start feature does not work. | Are you using a CD player that includes that feature? |
|
| Are you properly connecting the Fader Start cable? |
|
| Is the Fader Start switch set to ON? |
|
| Check the Crossfader position. |
|
|
|
| I hear noise/hum. | Make sure you are using good shielded audio cables. Some less |
|
| expensive audio cables can be susceptible to hum and |
|
| interference. Keep your audio cables away from AC power cables |
|
| and AC transformers. Make sure the mixer is not mounted too |
|
| close to high power amplifiers or lighting equipment power |
|
| supplies or ballasts. Make sure your turntables are properly |
|
| grounded to the back of the mixer if they include a grounding |
|
| wire. |
|
|
|
| I hear feedback. | If you are using a microphone, make sure that you are not too |
|
| close to the speakers or headphones. If you hear feedback on |
|
| the Phono Input, then the turntable may be mounted to close |
|
| to the speakers and/or subwoofer. Also, make sure the turntable |
|
| base is placed on a surface that does not vibrate or resonate |
|
| easily when the speakers are turned up loudly. |
