8)  The music in the DJ-booth can be manipulated with the monitor equalizer (21). 

 

9)  Correct if necessary the balance with button (6), for monophonic sound on master output set 

switch (23) in mono position. For monophonic sound on monitor output, set switch (22) in mono 
position. 

 

10) If you like to use the crossfader (14), you can route the channel to the left (X) side of the 

crossfader by putting the routing switch (7) on CF-X position. Or to the right (Y) side of the 
crossfader when you put the routing switch (7) on the CF-Y position. The response curve of the 
cross fader (14) can be adjusted with the cross fader curve potentiometer (30). 

 

11) To change the source, repeat point 3) to 6). 

 

12) By turning the headphones select potentiometer (27) more clockwise, you will increase the 

amount of the main mix signal in the headphones.  

 

13) To add a microphone signal, connect the microphone to the MIC input (C). Turn the level 

control (11) and the talk-over (12) to zero, slide up the MIC fader (15) to maximum and adjust 
with the level button (11) the volume of the microphone. Adjust with the equalizer (10) the 
sound of the microphone. To use the talk over, adjust the talk over button (12) (0= no decrease, 
10= total decrease). With the pan MIC (17), the DJ microphone signal can be placed 
somewhere between left and right. Eventually you can connect an external processor 
(example: compressor or reverb) to the effects insert (D) of the microphone channel. 

 

14) The mixed signal can be recorded, simply by connecting a recorder to the analogue (O) or 

digital (Q) record-connectors. Depending on the position of the record-select switch (24) you 
can decide if the microphone signal is also recorded or not. The mixed signal can also be 
recorded with a computer through the optional USB connector (R). 

 

15) The main mix signal can also be lead to one of the effects insert outputs. This can be done in 

the same way as leading the signal of an input channel to the effects insert outputs, follow the 
instructions of point 5). The effects assign indication LED’s for the main mix are LED’s (25). The 
effects assignation for the main mix can be done with the main mix effects assign potentiometer 
(26). 

 

16) When no PFL is selected with the PFL switches on the input channels (7), the mixed signal will 

appear on the VU-meters. If you like to compare via the VU-meters the pre-fade signal with the 
output signal, you can do this by switching all PFL switches off first. Then switch the PFL switch 
of the input channel you wish to compare with the mixed signal, on an off. In that way, both 
signal levels can be compared. 

 

 

SUBSONIC FILTER 
 
The master output and the monitor output have a subsonic filter to protect the bass loudspeakers from 
DC and subsonic signals. This filter cannot be switched off. The filter gives a reduction of 25dB at 10Hz.
