Helpful Hints

Electrical equipment operates best in a clean, dry, well-ventilated environment free of vibra- tion and electromagnetic fields. The following are some guidelines to achieve optimal per- formance.

Avoid placing the mixer and cables near heat sources. Be particularly aware of other audio equipment, such as amplifiers, which can produce a great deal of heat when operating.

To minimize hum in the system, avoid placing the mixer and cables near radio frequency devices and other electromagnetic field sources such as:

Fluorescent lights

Electrical motors

SCR dimmers

AC power lines, etc.

Note: Always use 2-conductor shielded cable to reduce EMI or RF interference to the

Line/MIC inputs.

Keep the mixer and other equipment clean and free of dust by wiping occasionally with a soft, damp cloth.

Protect the mixer from electrical damage by disconnecting it from the power source when- ever it will be unused for a week or longer.

The Bogen mixer is easy to install and adjust. The only tools needed are:

1. Slotted screwdriver

2. Phillips-head screwdriver
