no Sound.

Is the power ON? Based on your connections, check that you

 

 

have properly set the INPUT SELECTOR SWITCH. Make sure that

 

 

the GAIN, CHANNEL FADER, and MASTER VOLUME are turned

 

 

up. Make sure the channels are properly assigned to the

Check the CUE VOLUME, CUE MIX, and CUE button settings.

 

 

 

 

Mixer sounds noisy.

If a microphone is not being used, move the Mic switch to the

 

 

OFF position and 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 distorted-line input.

Turn down the channel GAIN. Check EQ settings.

Only plug turntables into this input, do not plug in CD players or

 

 

other line level sources. Turn down the channel GAIN and check

 

 

EQ settings.

 

 

 

 

i hear 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.
