Description of Function

At this point, you’re pretty much ready to start mixing. So if you’re a know-it-all, or you’re just one of those people who like to learn by trial-and-error, you are free to throw down. But if you wanna go for the gold and get your pilot’s license, take a moment and learn what each of the RM-22’s front-panel controls are about.

1.Power switch: Turns the power “On” or “Off”.

2.Zone Meter switch: Press this when you want the Output Level meter (23) to display the Zone output instead of the Master output.

3a. Zone Level knob: Adjusts the level being sent to the Zone outputs (i.e. monitors).

3b. Booth Level knob: Adjusts the level being sent to the Booth outputs (i.e. monitors).

4.Cue Level knob: Adjusts the cue level being sent to the Headphone outputs. Keep this at a reasonable level to avoid hearing loss.

5.Cue Stereo/ Split toggle switch: Select whether you prefer to hear the Cue mix and Master output in stereo, or split with the Cue mix on one side and the Master on the other.

9. Crossfader: Creates a gradual fade between two channels, as

determined by the Crossfader Source selectors (14). Essential for

scratching and smooth house mixing.

10.

Master fader: Adjusts the overall level of the Master output

 

signal.

11. Master Stereo/Mono toggle switch: Selects whether the Master

 

output will be stereo or summed to mono.

12.

PFL switch: Push this to assign the channel to the Cue mix in

 

headphones. (Pop quiz: Do you know what “PFL” stands for?

 

Answer: “Pre-Fader Level.” In other words, the Channel fader

 

does not affect the level you hear in the headphone cue mix.)

13.

Channel fader: Controls the input channel level.

14.

Crossfader Source selectors: These select whether the input

 

channel is assigned to the left side (A) or right side (B) of the

 

crossfader. Select “BYPASS” if you don’t want the channel

 

assigned to the crossfader at all.

15.

Input Gain knobs: Use these to adjust the level of inputs. For

 

optimum signal-to-noise, raise the knob until the “max” LED

 

lights occasionally. (usually around the 2 o’clock position)
