Electrical equipment operates best in a clean, dry, well-ventilated environment free of vibration and
electromagnetic fields. The following are some guidelines to achieve optimal performance.
Avoid placing the mixer and cables near heat sources. Be particularly aware of other audio equipment,
such as amplifiers, which can produce a great deal of heat when operating.
To minimize hum in the system, avoid placing the mixer and cables near radio frequency devices and
other electromagnetic field sources such as:
Fluorescent lights
Electrical motors
SCR dimmers
AC power lines, etc.
Note:
Always use 2-conductor shielded cable to reduce EMI or RF interference to the Line/MIC inputs.
Keep the mixer and other equipment clean and free of dust by wiping occasionally with a soft, damp
cloth.
Protect the mixer from electrical damage by disconnecting it from the power source whenever it will be
unused for a week or longer.
The Bogen mixer is easy to install and adjust. The only tools needed are:
1. Slotted screwdriver
2. Phillips-head screwdriver
