cartridge. A GROUND (37) screw for you to ground your turntables is located on the rear panel. The stereo line inputs will accept any line level input such as a CD player, a cassette player, etc.

6.Headphones can be plugged into the front panel mounted HEADPHONE (4) jack.

7.The BPM-250 comes with a front panel BNC LIGHT (5) jack. This jack is for use with a gooseneck light like the Gemini GNL-700.

Using the Ground Lift Switch

Depending on your system configuration, sometimes applying the ground will create a quieter signal path. Sometimes lifting the ground can eliminate ground loops and hum to create a quieter signal path.

1.With the mixer on, listen to the system in idle mode (no signal present) with the ground applied (the GROUND LIFT SWITCH (38) in the left position).

2.Then turn the power off before moving the GROUND LIFT SWITCH (38). Lift the ground by moving the GROUND LIFT SWITCH to the right, turn the power back on and listen to determine which position will provide a signal devoid of background noise and hum. Keep the GROUND LIFT SWITCH in the ground position if the noise level remains the same in either position.

CAUTION: DO NOT TERMINATE THE AC GROUND ON THE POWER MIXER IN ANY WAY. TERMINATION OF THE AC GROUND CAN BE HAZARDOUS.

Operation

1.POWER ON: Once you have made all the equipment connections to your mixer, press the POWER SWITCH (1). The power will turn on and the POWER LED (2) will glow RED.

2.CHANNEL 1: The GAIN (6), HIGH (7), MID (8), and LOW (9), controls allows you to fully adjust the selected source. Switch # (10) allows you to select either the mic or the PHONO/LINE (36) input. The CHANNEL (13) slide controls the output level of this channel.

3.MAIN CHANNEL SECTION: To assign an input source to a channel, first set the PHONO/LINE (11,12) switches to their appropriate positions. To make the proper adjustments to your music, set the GAIN (6), HIGH (7), MID (8) and LOW (9) controls and position the CHANNEL (14, 15) slide.

NOTE: There is Low, Mid and High equalization for each channel with an extremely wide range of adjustment giving you a smoother mix.

SUGGESTION: You can use the Cut Features on each channel to remove Low, Mid and/or High to create special effects.

4.CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (26) allows the mixing of one source into another. The left side of the CROSSFADER

(26)is channel 2 and the right side is channel 3. The CROSSFADER

(26)in your unit is removable and if the need arises can be easily replaced. Crossfader units are available in three varieties. Part # RF- 45 (which is identical to the crossfader supplied with the mixer) has a 45 mm travel from side to side. Part # RF-30 is available with a 30 mm travel distance.
