MP3 players, keyboards and other line level audio
devices.

Connect a microphone (or other source) and use it
at the intended level, while slowly turning up that
Channel's VOLUME knob. Watch the signal LED above
the VOLUME knob. The LED illuminates green when
small signals are present, changes to yellow when
the signal is strong, and turns RED when clipping
(distortion) occurs from too strong of signals. For best
performance, set the VOLUME and TONE controls so
that the LED is yellow or green. If the LED is turning
red, reduce the VOLUME or TONE knob settings. If the
LED is still turning red after adjusting VOLUME/TONE,
press the PAD button in.

10. Set up each of the other channels in the same way.
Use the channel VOLUME knobs to adjust the relative
loudness of each channel until you get the right over-
all balance, then use the MASTER VOLUME knob to
adjust everything together.
The MASTER VOLUME knob
on your Passport has signal
level meters. If you see the
meters illuminate into the
RED zone, turn down the
MASTER VOLUME knob.
11.
Start with each of the tone knobs (TREBLE, BASS) in
the center detent position. At this
setting they have no equalization
effect. From there you can experi-
ment by turning each tone control
to see what sounds best to you. If
possible, have someone walk to
each corner of the room and make
sure the settings and speaker positions provide clear
and consistent coverage throughout your audience.
Basic set-up is now complete! The following pages
contain detailed information on each of the Passport
Event's many features.
