Stanton RM-402 owner manual Application Example

Application Example

This is a typical setup you’ll find in many nightclubs: 2 turntables, 2 CD players, plus a microphone for the DJ. Here’s how you would set up your equipment with the RM.402:

1.Be sure all equipment is powered “OFF” and all of the RM.402’s Channel faders and Level knobs are at minimum volume.

2.Connect the turntables to the Phono inputs of Channels 1

and 2. Be sure the rear-panel toggle switch for Channel 2 is set to “PH2” or you won’t hear anything. To avoid hum, don’t forget to connect the ground wires to the grounding terminals.

3.Connect the CD players to the Line 4 and 5 inputs of Channels 3 and 4.

4.Depending on the type of cable you have, connect your microphone to the Mic 1 or Mic 2 input.

5.Connect the Master Output jacks to the club’s power amp, EQ or crossover. Then connect your monitor amp to the Booth output. If you have a separate amp for a particular area of the club, connect this amp to the Zone outputs.

6.Set the Input Selectors on the front panel to the appropriate inputs for each channel.

7.Power everything up and carefully adjust the input levels using the Input Gain knobs and Mic Level knob.

8.If you want to use the crossfader, set Channels 1 and 3 to “A” and Channels 2 and 4 to “B”. Otherwise, set them all to “Bypass”.

9.If your CD players support Fader Start, connect the mini-cables and set the Fader Start switches to “ON”.

10.Slowly raise the Channel faders, Master fader, Booth level, Zone level and Mic level as appropriate and start mixing!
