The X/LR5 M output level can be adjusted in two ways——a fixed 40dB attenuator to match levels to
nominal microphone inputs, and by presetting a maximum output level relative to 0dBFS.
Highlight ““Pad L/R Pad L/R Pad L/R Pad L/R”” and select N/N (no attenuation), Y/N (-40dB L only),
N/Y (-40dB R only), or Y/Y (-40dB both).

MIXY MIXY MIXY MIXY always translates her analogue
output to a digital USB feed. The sample
rate (44.1kHz or 48kHz) is governed
by the host computer and the wordlength
is always 16bit.
Iso outputs of Ch1, 2 & 3 are
available as Unbalanced outputs
at MIXY’’s MIXY’’s MIXY’’s MIXY’’s HR10-6 connector.

external power is limited (an auxiliary battery, for instance) it may be helpful
to turn the charge off. Select Y or N.
