Presetting the Controls Before Use
Since sudden high output levels from your Pyle Pro mixer can damage not only audio devices connected to the mixer output but your hearing as well (especially if you are using headphones), please adjust the mixer’s controls BEFORE connecting AC power or turning on the unit.
Set up the mixer controls like this before you start:

Please note that Phono 1 and Line 1 (as well as Phono 2 and Line 3) use the same jacks.
