Preparation

PHONO 2 L 

and

 R INPUT

 jacks (matching

left to left, and right to right).

Note: If you connect magnetic-cartridge
turntables, also connect their ground
wires (usually black or green ) to 

GND

.

3. Connect the DJ's microphone (not sup-

plied) into 

MIC 1

 on the front panel, and

the auxiliary microphone input to 

MIC 2

on the back panel. Both jacks require a

1

/

4-

inch (6.35mm) plug (not supplied).

CONNECTING POWER

Power the mixer using the supplied 15V 500-
mA AC adapter.

Cautions:

You must use a Class 2 power
source that supplies 15V AC
and delivers at least 500 mA.

Its plug must fit the mixer's 

AC 15V IN

jack. The supplied adapter meets these
specifications. Using an adapter that
does not meet these specifications
could damage the mixer or the adapter.

• Always connect the AC adapter to the

mixer before you connect it to AC power.
When you finish, disconnect the adapter
from AC power before you disconnect it
from the mixer.

Connect the small barrel plug of the supplied
AC adapter to the

 AC 15V IN

 jack on the back

of the mixer and connect the AC plug to a
standard AC outlet.

CONNECTING 
HEADPHONES

To listen in privacy or monitor the audio
source inputs so you can locate an exact
passage or section before mixing it, plug a
pair of stereo headphones (not supplied) with

1

/

4

-inch (6.35mm) plug into the 

PHONES

jack on the front panel. Your local Ra-
dioShack store carries a wide selection of
headphones.

Listening Safely

Do not listen at extremely high volume lev-
els. Extended, high-volume listening can
lead to permanent hearing loss. To protect
your hearing when you use headphones, al-
ways follow these guidelines to set the listen-
ing volume.

• Set 

CUE LEVEL

 to the lowest setting

before you begin listening.

• After you put on the headphones, adjust

CUE LEVEL

 to the desired listening level.

• Once you set the volume, do not

increase it. Over time, your ears adapt
to the volume level, so a volume level
that does not cause discomfort might
still damage your hearing. 

Caution: As you begin to mix, do not always
increase volume levels to achieve the proper
balance. You can bring high levels down just
as easily as you can bring low levels up. Lis-
tening at excessive volume levels can dam-
age your hearing.
