A FEW PRECAUTIONS:

• Never listen to loud music for

prolonged periods. Please
see the Safety Instructions
on page 2 for information on
hearing protection.

• Never plug ampliﬁ er speaker-level outputs into

anything except speakers.

• Never use guitar cables to connect ampliﬁ ers to

speakers.

• Before making connections to an external

ampliﬁ er, or reconﬁ guring an amp’s routing, turn
the amp’s level (gain) controls down, turn the
power oﬀ , make the changes, turn the power back
on, and then turn the level controls back up.

• When you shut down your equipment, turn oﬀ any

external ampliﬁ ers ﬁ rst. When powering up, turn
on the ampliﬁ ers last.

• Save the shipping box and packing material! The

box can also be turned into a unique hat, lunch
box, or handbag to accessorize your mixer.
