Power Supply
The Sixty-Eight Mixer features an internal universal switching power supply that operates on any AC
mains 100 to 240 VAC, 50 or 60 Hz (most places in the world). All that is required when traveling is the
appropriate IEC line cord, available from a local electronics store. The universal supply is a major plus for
the traveling DJ. Though this mixer has turn on/off muting, it’s smart to leave the power unplugged until
everything else is connected.
PGM Inputs 1-4
The Sixty-Eight has four stereo analog inputs for PGM 1 through PGM 4. Any of these analog inputs may
be set for Phono Input, Line Input or S/PDIF using the
P - L - S
switches located on the rear panel. Unused
inputs are best set to LINE. Attach your turntable’s ground wires to the Phono Ground connectors.
Any of the four analog inputs may be used for Serato DJ vinyl emulation control. Input 1 or Input 2 may
be selected for Serato DJ Virtual Deck 1 or 2 control. Input 3 or Input 4 may be selected for Serato DJ
Virtual Deck 3 or 4 control. Control input sources are selected in Serato DJ software.
Mic Inputs
The Mic Inputs will accept an XLR 3-pin plug, a balanced ¼" TRS (tip-ring sleeve) plug or an unbalanced
TS (tip-sleeve) plug. Mic 1 has a switchable phantom power option, and Mic 2 has a switchable line level
option.
Analog Outputs
All analog outputs come from the same “Main Mix” signal. Main, Booth and Session outputs each have
their own Level control. The Main output is on balanced XLR jacks with pin 2 “hot” per AES standards.
The Booth output is on balanced ¼" TRS (tip-ring-sleeve) jacks, though unbalanced TS (tip-sleeve) plugs
may be used. The Session output is on regular unbalanced RCA jacks. Because all signals are identical,
users may use any of these outputs as the “main” output if a different cable type is required for system
connection.
Rane recommends balanced wiring for the strongest signal and rejection of hum and noise. If your
cable to the amp rack is less than 10 feet (3 meters), you can usually get away with an unbalanced cable.
