PRESETTING THE 
CONTROLS

Warning: A sudden high output from the
mixer could damage your hearing, especially
if you use headphones, and might also dam-
age the audio devices connected to the mix-
er's output. Before using the mixer, make
sure you set your receiver/amplifier's volume
control to its lowest volume setting.

Before you connect the AC power source,
make sure you set 

POWER OFF/ON 

to 

OFF

.

To avoid sudden and unusable sound out-
puts from any audio devices that you con-

nect to the mixer, be sure to have their power
controls set to off, and any tone controls set
to flat (zero).

your sound system, connect one end of an
audio cord (not supplied) to the mixer's

CONNECTING THE INPUTS 

You can connect up to four line-level and up
to two low-level audio input sources to the in-
put jacks on the back of the mixer. You can
connect one microphone to the mixer's front
and another microphone to the back panel.
