1- MONO MIC/LINE Channels
Your MX2442 is equipped with 10 low-noise microphone preamplifier with
optional phantom power, 50 dB of Gain and over 112 dB of S/N ratio.
You can connect almost any type of microphone. Dynamic microphones do
not need phantom power. Use phantom power only with condenser microphones
but make sure that the phantom power button is disengaged before
connecting the microphone. Phantom power will not damage your dynamic
microphones, so make sure to read the MIC instructions manual
before engaging phantom power. Use switch (48) to activate/deactivate
phantom power. These channels are also equipped with 1/4" TRS
balanced/unbala nced LINE-IN plugs to connect line-level instruments such
as keyboards, drum machines and effect devices.
These are channels 13 through 24. They are organised in stereo pair and
provided with XLR sockets and 1/4" TRS phone jacks.If you connect only the
left jack, the input will operate in mono mode, that is the mono signal will
appear on both input channels. You can use these inputs with a stereo
keyboard, drum machine, etc.
3- STEREO INPUTS
This is where you connect external sound processors such as compressor-
limiter, equalizers, etc.. The insert point is available on the first 4 MIC
only.

4- TRIM
The TRIM control is applied in the mono MIC and stereo input channels. It provides with 2 different
indications: One is for the MIC and the other for LINE levels. When you use a microphone, you shall read the
MIC ring (0~50 for mono MIC input, 0~40 for stereo channels); when you use a line level instrument, you
shall read the LINE ring (+15~-35 dB for mono MIC input, +20~-20 dB
for stereo channels). For optimum operation, you shall set this control in
a way that the PEAK LED(24) blinks only occasionally in order to avoid
distortion on the input channel.
5- LINE GAIN
When you use a line level instrument, you shall read the ring
(-20~+20 dB). For optimum operation, you shall set this
control in a way that the PEAK LED (24) blinks only occasionally in
order to avoid distortion on the input channel.
6- LEVEL SET LED
This LED will help you to detect the input level immediately. In this case,
the research of the fault will become much faster!
7- LOW-CUT Button
By pressing this button, you will activate a 75 Hz low frequency filter with a slope of 18 dB per octave. You
can use this facility to reduce the hum noise infected by the mains power supply, or the stage rumble while
using a microphone.
9- LINE/USB Button
By pressing this button, it will switch to the USB mode, then the USB signal can be sent to this channel or
the Main Mix channel; by releasing this button,the LINE IN inputs signal will send to the line input channels.

releasing this button,the LINE IN inputs signal will send to the line input channels(You have to install the
MP3 MOUDLE first).
