Before connecting other  equipment to the mixing console,  check the impedances

and levels of both. If the impedances and levels do not match, mixing will be very
difficult and the  S/N ratio will also be adversely affected.

Each  input  channel  of  the  RX-31C  is  provided  with  a  TRIM  control.  Thorough
understanding of the  function of a  TRIM control will make mixing easily.

Trim Control

Input

Output

HEAD  AMP

The  function  of  the  TRIM  control  is  to  control  the
negative  feedback volume  of the  head-amp  so  that the
gain of the head-amp can also be changed. Because of
this, enough dynamic range, even for high level signals
is ensured. Also, the S/N ratio will be better by decreas-
ing the gain of the head-amp.

For  example,  a  condenser  microphone,  a  dynamic  microphone  and  a  playback
deck with output levels of  — 55dBm,  — 50dBm and  +4dBm, respectively are con-

nected to the mixing console.

Dynamic

Playback
Deck
in  +4dBm level

The Phantom Power Switches, MIC/LINE Selector
switches,  TRIM  Controls  and  Channel  ON/OFF
switches  are  set  as  shown  in  figure  at  left.

The  TRIM  controls  should  be  properly  adjusted
depending  on  the  signal  level  of the  other  equip-
ment connected,  so that each input channel fader
will  be  horizontally  lined  up,  as  this  will  make

operation easier.

TRIM  controls must also properly set,  so that the
peak indicator will not be lit. In general, each input
channel fader is adjusted around the nominal posi-
tion,  and the master  fader is  also  set at a nominal
position.
