User Replaceable Cross Fader, Specifications

CROSSFADER. Rail Glide™ crossfaders have internal dual stainless steel rails that allow the slider to ride smoothly and accurately from end to end. Also available is our is the RG-45 PRO (RAIL GLIDE™) crossfader with a special curve designed for scratch mixing. Just pur- chase one from your GEMINI dealer and follow the instructions:

USER REPLACEABLE CROSS FADER

1.Unscrew the outside mixer FACE PLATE screws and remove the face plate. Then remove FADER plate screws (B & C).

2.Carefully lift the fader and unplug the CABLE (D).

3.Plug the new fader into the cable and place it back in the mixer.

4.Screw fader plate to the mixer and replace the mixer FACE PLATE.

NOTE: DO NOT APPLY PRESSURE WHILE USING THE CROSSFADER. LIGHTLY GLIDE THE CROSSFADER BACK AND FORTH. PRESSING DOWN ON THE CONTROLS CAN BEND CON- TACTS AND CAUSE A LOSS OF SOUND.

5.The CROSSFADER SLOPE SWITCH (19) allows you to adjust the kind of slope the crossfader has. Flip the cross- fader slope switch up to make the slope steep and cutting (perfect for scratching). Flip the crossfader slope switch down to make the slope gradual and gentle.

6.The CROSSFADER REVERSE SWITCH (20) allows you to reverse the crossfader so that CH 2 (32) is con- trolled by the left side of the crossfader and CH 1 (26) is controlled by the right side of the crossfader.

7.CUE: The CUE FADER (18) facilitates the seamless blending of one recorded track into another. Connecting a set of headphones to the HEADPHONES (16) jack allows you to monitor either CH 1 (26) or CH 2 (32). Select CH 1 (26) by moving CUE FADER (18), located on the front panel, to CUE 1 on the left. Listen to CH 2 (32) by mov- ing CUE FADER (18) to CUE 2 on the right. To mix both Channels bring CUE FADER (18) to the middle so that both tracks may be heard. Use CUE VOLUME (17) to adjust the headphone volume without affecting the speak- er-driven mix.

8.FILTER/FX SECTION: The PMX-04 is equipped with fil- ter effects. This means you may augment the cut off fre- quency of your program mix by filtering out the tonal boost located in the low, mid, and/or high frequency range.

To control this section you must adjust the DRY/WET FADER (34) in order to increase the depth of the filter effect. Glide the DRY/WET FADER (34) to the right to increase the filter effect, drowning out the program mix with a deep, wet effect. Glide the DRY/WET FADER (34) to the left to decrease the filter effect, thus disabling the filter effects.

Use the Q FACTOR (35) rotary control to adjust the effect's frequency volume. Rotate the Q factor (35) rotary control clockwise to increase the effect's frequency vol- ume, giving the effect a very sharp, audible cut-off response. Rotate the Q FACTOR (35) rotary control count- er-clockwise to decrease the effect's frequency volume, giving the effect a dull, less audible cut-off response.

Engage the push button TEMPO ON (36) to control the recycling speed of the filter's effect. Use the TEMPO (37) rotary control to adjust the recycling speed of the filter's effect. Rotate the TEMPO (37) rotary control clockwise to increase the recycling speed of the filter's effect. Rotate the TEMPO (37) rotary control counter clockwise to decrease the recycling speed of the filter's effect.

Use the RESONANCE FADER (38) to channel the PGM through variable cut-off frequency responses. Glide the RESONANCE FADER (38) to the left to engage the low pass. You will notice the low frequencies in your program mix become the focal point in your audio mix. While glid- ing the RESONANCE FADER (38) to the right, you will reach the mid pass. Notice how the mid tones become the focal point in your audio mix when you have reached the middle. When you have reached the right end of the RESONANCE FADER (38), you will reach the high pass. Notice how the treble tones become the focal point in your audio mix.

NOTE: WHEN USING THE FILTER EFFECT, YOU MAY EXPERIENCE A TONAL BOOST DURING A HIGH PASS THAT WILL SEND YOUR MASTER OUTPUT LEVELS INTO THE BLUE (0 THROUGH +11), AS INDICATED IN YOUR VU METER (40). ADJUST THE CHANNEL FADERS (26, 32), IN ORDER TO PROTECT YOUR EQUIPMENT FROM A SYSTEM OVERLOAD. TO BEGIN FILTER EXPERIMENTA- TION, START WITH A LOW PASS (RESONANCE FADER (38) TO THE LEFT) WITH YOUR CHANNEL FADERS (26, 32) AT MID LEVEL. THEN MOVE SLOWLY THROUGH THE MID AND HIGH PASS TO EXAMINE THE TONAL BOOST, SAFELY.

9.MIC SECTION: Connecting a microphone to the 1/4" MIC JACK (12) allows voice amplification through the mixer to the stereo through the MASTER RCA OUTPUTS

(3). This is controlled by the MIC VOLUME (13), HIGH (14), LOW (15) rotary controls.

10.OUTPUT CONTROL SECTION: The level of the MAS- TER (4) RCA output is controlled by the MASTER VOL- UME (39) rotary control.

11.DISPLAYS: The DUAL VU METER (40) indicates the level of the MASTER (4) RCA output left and right chan- nel levels respectively. DUAL VU METER (40) reflects the MASTER VOLUME (39), GAIN (22, 28), HIGH (23, 29), MID (24, 30) and LOW (25, 31) rotary control adjustments for each channel. The CH SLIDES (26, 32) also affect each of the DUAL VU METER (40).
