DJ MIC SECTION

The D J 2 4 has an extremely flexible DJ Mic channel. The
Talkover function reduces the level of the music while
leaving the DJ Mic at normal volume.

7.  Neutrik™ “Combo” connector allows connection of
either a 1/4” jack or an XLR jack for the DJ Mic 1.  This is
ideal for connecting an XLR gooseneck directly into the
mixer.

8. Treble and Bass Controls fine tune the tone of
your voice on both mics through the sound system. The
controls are detented for setting tone "flat". For best
results, use a dynamic cardioid microphone.

9.  The DJ Mic 1 Fader controls the DJ Mic volume for
the Neutrik™ “Combo” connector.

10.  The Mic 2 Fader controls the Mic volume for the
1/4” connector on the rear of the mixer.

11.Mic Off/On/Talkover Switch

O f f turns off Mic 1
O n turns on Mic 1 
Talkover turns down the input level of your music
sources from Channels 1-4.  

Talkover is very useful for making announcements without
adjusting any levels.

Try using this feature for audience participation 
when you want the music to temporarily cease 
and the audience to be heard  -  “YEAH!”

M A S T E R / B O O T H   O U T P U T   S E C T I O N

12. The Stereo Master Fader controls the overall

output level.

13. Stereo/Mono toggle adjusts the Master output for

the operation selected.

14. The Booth Level controls speaker volume for a

remote zone or booth monitors. If you do not use booth
monitors the output can feed a tape deck, another
amplifier, another mixer or a satellite speaker system.
N o t e :  This can also be used to supply line level audio to a
lighting controller or to lights that are sound activated.

C O N T R A C T O R ' S   N O T E: Booth Level provides
zone control in installations where there are two separate
rooms, or a bar and dance floor, for example. Remote zone
volume should be controlled from the  
D J 2 4.

15. Stereo Auto Peak Hold Level Indicator. This 

fast, accurate stereo meter tracks the output level. The red
LEDs for +3dB, +5dB and +8dB hold program peaks for a
second or two. With peak metering, it's OK to be "in the
red" as long as +5dB or +8dB aren't constantly  lit. Set the
crossover, equalizer and power amp inputs to avoid
distortion at each step in the audio chain. Proper attention
to the peak meter results in the punchiest possible sound
without audible distortion.
