PREPARATION

Warning: A sudden high output from the mixer could damage your hearing, especially if you use headphones, and might also damage the audio devices connected to the mixer’s output. Be- fore using the mixer, make sure you set your receiver/amplifier’s volume control to its minimum volume level setting.

Before you connect the AC power cord, make sure you set POWER to off. And, to avoid sudden and unusable sound outputs from any audio devices that you connect to the mixer, be sure to have their power controls set to off (and any tone controls set to flat).

To record the mixer’s output signal, connect one end of an audio patch cord (Cat. No. 42-2356, not supplied) to the mixer’s REC L (white) and R (red) output jacks, then connect the other end to your tape deck’s left and right line input jacks (matching left to left, and right to right).

CONNECTING THE

OUTPUTS

To play the mixer’s output signal through your sound system (for events such as parties, dances, conferences, and so on), connect one end of an au- dio patch cord (Cat. No. 42-2356, not supplied) to the mixer’s AMP L (white) and R (red) output jacks, then connect the other end to your receiver/amplifi- er’s left and right line input jacks (matching left to left, and right to right).
