The Basics
using your mixer
1. Set your output device’s volume to minimum and turn it
on.
2. Press POWER to turn on the mixer.
3. Turn on the audio input sources you want to mix.
4. Preset the input signal levels (see “presetting input signal
levels”).
5. Mix the audio input sources (see “mixing the inputs” on
Page 13).
6. When you are finished, turn off all connected audio
devices (amplifiers, tape decks, and so on), and press
POWER
to turn off the mixer.
presetting input signal levels
To avoid overdriving a channel or prematurely mixing an
audio input source, adjust your mixer to these settings:
1. Rotate
MASTER
clockwise about halfway.
2. Press
MONO/STEREO
in for monaural output. Press again for
stereo output.
3. The mixer’s LED meters show total stereo output level.
For best results, input signal levels should be set so the
meters read
0db
or less.
