can further modify the sound output of this channel by adjusting the rotary GAIN (54), HIGH (56), MID (57), LOW

(58)controls located to the left of the CH 5 SLIDE CON- TROL (59).

NOTE: FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE, BEGIN PROGRAM MIX WITH ROTARY GAIN (26, 33, 40, 47, 54) CONTROLS SET TO ZERO (ROTATE IT COUNTERCLOCKWISE TO THE LEFT POSITION). MAKE ALL ADJUSTMENTS IN SOUND OUTPUT WITH THE USE OF YOUR CHANNEL SLIDE CONTROLS (31, 45, 59, 38, 52), ZONE (66), BALANCED MASTER (63), AND MASTER (64) VOLUME ROTARY CONTROLS. THIS WILL PREVENT SIGNAL OVERLOAD AND DECREASE DISTORTION. ONCE YOU HAVE MODIFIED YOUR SOUND AND WOULD LIKE TO INCREASE THE OUTPUT OF YOUR SOUND, THEN YOU MAY ADJUST THE ROTARY GAIN CONTROL IF NEEDED.

7.CUE: By connecting a set of headphones to the HEAD- PHONE (60) jack, you can monitor any or all channels. Press CUE buttons (27, 34, 41, 48, 55) for CH 1 through CH 5 to assign the Channel(s) to be monitored. The respective CUE LED indicators will glow when in use. Use the rotary CUE VOLUME CONTROL (61) to adjust the cue volume without changing the overall mix. By moving the CUE/PGM FADER CONTROL (62) to the LEFT you will be able to monitor the assigned cue signal. Moving the control to the RIGHT allows you to monitor PGM out- put. Moving the control to the MIDDLE allows cue mix with PGM.

8.ASSIGN: There are 2 ROTARY CONTROLLED ASSIGN SWITCHES (67, 68), each having 5 settings 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5. The LEFT ASSIGN (67) control allows you to direct CH 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 through the LEFT side of the CROSSFAD- ER (69). The RIGHT ASSIGN (68) control allows you to direct CH 1, 2, 3, 4 or 5 through the RIGHT side of the CROSSFADER (69).

9.CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (69) allows you to mix from one source to another. The MM-03 features an ASSIGNABLE CROSSFADER (69). The rotary controlled ASSIGN SWITCHES (67, 68) allow you to select which channel will play through each side of the CROSSFADER (69). The CROSSFADER (69) in your unit is removable and if the need arises can be easily replaced. Your Gemini mixer comes with an RG-45 (RAILGLIDE™) Dual-Rail Crossfader. Rail Glide™ crossfaders have internal dual stainless steel rails that allow the slider to ride smoothly and accurately from end to end. Also available is our RG-45 PRO (PROGLIDE™) Dual-Rail Crossfader. This unique crossfader features, a special curve designed for scratch mixing. Just purchase one from your Gemini dealer and follow the instructions:

Replaceable Crossfader

1.Unscrew the outside FADER plate screws (B).

- Do not touch INSIDE SCREWS (C).

2.Carefully remove old

Crossfader and unplug CABLE (D).

3.Plug new Crossfader into CABLE (D) and place back into mixer.

4.Screw Crossfader to mixer with the FADER PLATE SCREWS (B).

10.OUTPUT SELECTION CONTROL: Once you are com- fortable with the sound level of your music you may adjust the volume with the MASTER (64) rotary control. You may adjust the volume of the zone output with the ZONE (66) rotary control. You may also adjust the balance from left to right with the BALANCED MASTER (63) rotary control.

11.MIC SECTION: Plug your main mic into the MIC 1 com- bination XLR-1/4"input (20) located on the face panel. The rotary controls for HIGH (22) and LOW (23) for MIC 1 (20) allow you to adjust the tone of MIC 1 (20). The MIC 1 rotary volume control (21), above the HIGH(22)/LOW(23) controls, adjust the decibel level of MIC 1 (20). You may also plug a second and third mic into the rear panel's MIC 2 (19) and MIC 3 (10) ¼" jacks. The tone and decibel level of MIC 2 (19) and MIC 3 (10) are controlled by the CH 1 (31) and CH 4 (52) slide controls, the 3 BAND ROTARY EQ (HIGH (28, 49), MID (29, 50), LOW (30, 51)) controls and GAIN (26, 47) rotary controls, respectively.

12.TALKOVER: The purpose of the AUTO TALKOVER MODE is to allow the program playing to be muted so that the mic may be heard above the music. The MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (24) controls MIC 1 (20) with 3 settings:

- When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (24) is in the BOT- TOM position, MIC 1 (20) and TALKOVER MODE are all OFF.

- When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (24) is in the CEN- TER position, MIC 1 (20) is ONand TALKOVER MODE is OFF. The MIC ON LED INDICATOR glows when MIC 1

(20)is ON.

-When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (24) is in the TOP position, MIC 1 (20) is ON and TALKOVER MODE is ON, and the volume of all sources except MIC 1(20) inputs is lowered by -16 dB.

13.VU METER: The VU METER (65) indicates the pro- gram output level of the MASTER (3) left and right stereo levels.
