Beyond the Basics
monitoring a second input source
Monitoring a second input source requires listening to an input source, finding the desired audio section you want to mix, and adjusting it’s sound level to match the volume of the first input source (the one designated ASSIGN A).
1.Connect and put on headphones. You can listen to one source through the headphones while the other source plays over the sound system.
2.Set ASSIGN B to the second input source (1, 2, 3, correspond to CH 1, CH 2, CH 3).
3.Press CUE (next to the second input source’s CH control).
4.Set PHONO 1/LINE 1, PHONO 2/LINE 2, or LINE 3/LINE 4 to the second input source.
5.Play the second input source.
6.Adjust the second input source’s volume (CH) to it’s preset signal level. If using headphones, adjust CUE LEVEL (headphones volume) to a comfortable listening level.
7.When you reach the desired section of music to mix, stop or pause play.
switching to a second input source
1.Play the second input source.
2.When you are ready to hear it play on your sound system, slide CROSS FADER from A to B.
3.Slide CROSS FADER to the left to fade in ASSIGN A (source one) and fade out ASSIGN B (source two). Slide CROSS FADER to the right to fade in ASSIGN B and fade out ASSIGN A. Slide CROSS FADER to the center to equally mix the two.
•Do not slide CROSS FADER to the center when monitoring a channel while another is playing. Instead, slide CROSS FADER to the channel you are not monitoring. For example, to monitor channel 1 (ASSIGN A) while channel 2 (ASSIGN B) is playing, slide CROSS FADER to B.
