4.Set the desired channel volume level slide control to the preset position.

5.Adjust CUE LEVEL to a comfortable lis- tening level.

6.Start playback of the input source you want to play next through your sound system.

7.Set the input device to the desired sec- tion of music, then stop or pause the input device.

Switching to the Second Input Source

1.Start playback of the second input source.

2.Slide CROSS FADER from A to B when you are ready to play the second source’s sound through your sound sys- tem.

Slide CROSS FADER:

•To the left to fade in the channel selected by ASSIGN A and fade out the channel selected by ASSIGN B.

•To the right to fade in the channel selected by ASSIGN B and fade out the channel selected by ASSIGN A.

•To the center to equally mix the two.

Notes on Mixing

•If you set CROSS FADER to A to play the channel selected by ASSIGN A, then you must set CUE ASSIGN to CH 1 to monitor CH 1, to CH 2 to monitor CH 2, to CH 3 to monitor CH 3, and to CH 4 to monitor CH 4. The same applies when you set

CROSS FADER to B.

•To mix any two inputs selected by the ASSIGN switches, set each ASSIGN switch to the desired channel. Then use CROSS FADER to mix the two.

•Do not slide CROSS FADER to the center if you want to monitor one channel while the other is playing. Otherwise, the sound from the channel you monitor will also be heard through your sound sys- tem. Instead, slide CROSS FADER to the channel you are not monitoring. For example, to monitor channel 1 (selected by ASSIGN A) while channel 2 (selected by ASSIGN B) is playing, slide CROSS FADER to B.

•Use CUE LEVEL to listen to the input controlled by the CUE ASSIGN switch and what is playing on the currently selected output device.

USING THE SPECIAL

CONTROLS

Using the Tone Controls

Your mixer has a set of tone controls for each microphone and for channels 1–4. You can tailor the high, middle, and low frequen- cy sounds for each.

For normal sound, leave BASS, MID, and HIGH set to 0.

Rotate HIGH, MID or BASS toward +10 to in- crease, or toward –10respectively to de- crease the high, middle, and low frequency sounds.

Using Gain

Since the input levels of each sound source are different, the GAIN controls let you fine tune each selected input's volume. Rotate the desired GAIN control toward MAX to in- crease the volume and toward MIN to reduce it.
