Stereo Channel Inputs (CH1, CH2, CH3 )

Inputs & Selector Buttons

The DJM806 features internal RIAA phono equalizers on Channels 1 and 2. Those channels will directly accept the output from turntables with the channel input selector up in the Phono position. There are also CD/TAPE/LINE inputs on all three-program channels, which may be activated with the input selectors. This way, you can connect up to six different sources via these three channels and punch them in as desired.

Ground Terminal

Connect turntable ground wire here to minimize hum and noise.

Gain Control

With signal applied to the input, adjust the GAIN so that occasional flashes of the CLIP LED are observed — alternately, you can CUE the channel and adjust for “0” on the Level Meter. This will ensure that the signal level fits comfortably within the channel strip’s headroom ~ low enough to prevent distortion, and yet high enough to preserve the signal to noise ratio.

High, Mid, Low Channel EQ

Equalization is varied by three controls labeled High, Mid and Low. Each control can either boost the amplitude of its frequency band by +15dB or cut by -20dB. The -20dB cut capability is especially help- ful when you are cueing and crossfading cuts of dissimilar tempo and don’t want the bass beats to conflict. You turn the channel’s LO EQ to -20dB before crossfading to it, and then simply turn it back up while completing the crossfade.

Effects Send Control

The EFX send control varies the amount of post-EQ, post-fader channel signal sent internally to the master DIGITAL EFFECTS system’s 16-bit processor. The output of the effects processor then goes to the MAINS master section to be mixed with the dry signals going there direct from the input channels. Remember, because this send is post-fader, the channel fader must be pushed up for EFX signal to get to the effects processor.

Cue Button & LED

The CUE feature enables you to preview channel signals via head- phones before they go to the main system. The CUE signal is post-EQ so that the channel equalization will be in effect through the head- phones, and it is pre-fader so that you may use the Right/Cue Level meter to help set the channel Gain for an average “0” reading. Use the Phones Level to adjust cueing volume. Cue LED’s remain on while the cue buttons are depressed.

To test the Cue feature, simply follow these steps:

a)Connect a signal source (tape deck, CD player or turntable) to CH1, 2 or 3 and set the channel fader to zero. With the Headphones Crossfader set to Cue, phones plugged in, the Phones Level turned up and the Display Assign button down in Pgm/Cue position, you are ready to preview the program.

b)Depress the channel Cue button. Now that channel will have prominence through your headphones.

c)Listen through the phones while adjusting the channel Gain for
