MIXER FEATURES

INPUTS

1.Input Toggle Switches - select which source will be live to that channel based on what you have connected to the rear panel input section.

2.Input faders - control individual source levels in the mix.

Note: Never use spray cleaners on the slide controls. Residues cause excessive dirt build-up and this will void your warranty. In normal use slide controls can last for many years. If they malfunction (usually because of a dirty or dusty environment) consult a professional technician.

3.Channel Cue Assign - are used to route Pre Fader Level (PFL) channel audio to the Headphone Section. The channel faders do not control the Cue volume.

4.Effect Send (Channels 1-4). Depress these buttons when you want the signal from any input channel to be routed to the sampler on the Send Out Jacks.

CROSSFADER

5.Crossfader Assign Knob - determines which input channel will be heard when the crossfader is moved towards the knob. With the crossfader centered, both assigned channels are live. Use the crossfader for fast and seamless segues from one selected channel to the other.

6.Replaceable Crossfader - achieves clean segues between the two input channels selected by the Crossfader Assign.

Note: The crossfader is a user replaceable item and subject to wear. Excessive force can wear out the fader quickly. This is not a warranted item. In case of failure. Simply unscrew the two large screws that hold it in place, lift it out and disconnect its cable. Re-attach the new crossfader and screw the mounting plate back onto the unit - you’re back in business!

MICROPHONE

7.Neutrik™ “Combo” connector - allows connection of either a 1/4” jack or an XLR jack. This is ideal for connecting an XLR gooseneck directly into the mixer.

8.Treble and Bass Controls – for fine-tuning the tone of your voice through the sound system. The controls are detented for setting tone "flat".

9.DJ Mic Gain Control – for volume adjustment of the Neutrik™ “Combo” connector on the faceplate.

10.Mic 2 Gain Control – for volume adjustment of the ¼” input on the rear panel.

11.Mic Off/On/Talkover Switch. Off/On turns Mic 1off and on. Mic 2 is controlled only through the Mic 2 Fader. Talkover turns down the input level of your music sources from Channels 1-4. Talkover is very useful for making announcements without adjusting any levels.

Try using this feature for audience participation when you want the music to temporarily cease and the audience to be heard - “YEAH!”

OUTPUTS

12.Master Fader – controls the overall output level.

13.Stereo/Mono toggle - adjusts the Master output for stereo or mono operation.

14.Booth/Zone Fader - controls speaker volume for a remote zone or booth monitors. NOTE: This can also be used to supply line level audio to a lighting controller or to lights that are sound activated.

15.Stereo Auto Peak Hold Level Indicator- quickly and accurately tracks level of audio output. The red LEDs for +3dB, +5dB and +8dB hold program peaks for a second or two. With peak metering, it's OK to be "in the red" as long as +5dB or +8dB aren't constantly lit. When using as a master output meter, set the crossover, equalizer and power amp inputs to avoid distortion at each step in the audio chain. Proper attention to the peak meter results in the punchiest possible sound without audible distortion.
