MX-406 Mixer

The MX-406 is a versatile rack-mountable mixer capable of supporting the following applications:

Small Sound Reinforcement

Meeting/Board Room or Church

Location Recording or Broadcast Mixing

Sub-mixing in a larger system

These applications are discussed in detail on Page 8.

Connectors & Cables

Your MX-406 is provided with three different connector types:

1.1/4 inch stereo phone jacks (TRS)

2.Three pin XLR type connectors

3.RCA Connectors

When possible, balanced connections are recommend between all components in your system, as this eliminates ground-loop induced hum and noise.

MX-406 Connector Polarities

Unbalanced Connections and Grounding

If you must use unbalanced connectors, the negative lead of the connector should be tied to the ground lead. Using unbalanced connections could result in chassis ground-loop noise. Altering the signal/chassis ground relationship in equipment connected to your unit may eliminate the noise.
