To activate the equalizer, press the EQ BUTTON (35) (the EQ LED
will light). By adjusting any of the 7 left equalizer slide controls (8),
you can cut or boost the tonal characteristics of the sound coming
from the left speaker by ±12 dB. By adjusting any of the 7 right
equalizer slide controls (22), you can cut or boost the tonal
characteristics of the sound coming from the right speaker by ±12
dB. Deactivate the equalizer by pressing the EQ BUTTON (35) again

8. OUTPUT CONTROL SECTION: The level of the MAIN OUTPUT (41)

is controlled by the MASTER (24) slide. Activating the MONO (23)
button (the mono LED will light) makes the overall output mono. The
BOOTH (36) control adjusts the level of the BOOTH OUTPUT (42).
HINT: The BOOTH OUTPUT is used by some DJs to run monitor
speakers in their DJ Booth. You can also use it as a second ZONE or
AMP output.

NOTE

: The  

REC OUTPUT (43) 

has no level control. The

level is set by the channel slides of the selected channel.

The tonal qualities can be controlled by the equalizers.

9. TALKOVER SECTION: The purpose of the talkover section is to

allow the program playing to be muted so that the mic can be heard
above the music. The MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (7) controls MIC 1
and MIC 2 and has three settings. When the MIC/TALKOVER
SWITCH (7)
 is in the bottom position, MIC 1 and MIC 2 and talkover
are off.  When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (7) is in the center
position MIC 1 and MIC 2 are on,  the MIC INDICATOR (6) will glow,
but talkover is off. When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (7) is in the
top position, MIC 1 and MIC 2 and talkover will be on and the volume
of all sources except the Mic inputs are lowered by 16 dB. The
TREBLE (2) and BASS (3) controls allow you to fully adjust the tone
of MIC 1 and MIC 2. MIC 1 LEVEL (5) controls the level of MIC 1.
The MIC 2 LEVEL (4) controls the level of MIC 2.

10. CUE SECTION: By connecting a set of headphones to the

HEADPHONE (39) jack, you can monitor any or all of the channels.
Press the CUE ASSIGN (20) buttons for channels 1 - 4 to select the
channel or channels to be monitored and their respective LED
indicators will glow. Use the CUE LEVEL (38) control to adjust the
cue volume without effecting the overall mix. By moving the CUE
PGM PAN (37)
 control to the left you will be able to monitor the
assigned cue signal. Moving the control to the right will monitor the
PGM (program) output. Moving to the right will monitor the PGM
(program) output.

11. DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (21) indicates the MASTER output left and

right levels.

12. ECHO SECTION: Echo can be applied by pressing the ECHO (29)

button (the LED will light). You can adjust the LEVEL (26)REPEAT
(28)
 and DELAY (27) parameters of the echo by using the ECHO
