Unplug the AC cord of the unit. Remove 

the four screws on the top right and left sides and 
loosen the four screws on the bottom left and right 
sides. The top cover can now be removed by lifting 
straight up. The jumpers are located behind and to 
the left of the select switch. Pin 1 of each jumper is 
labeled as shown. The four priority audio jumpers 
(P1L, P2L, P1R, P2R) and two priority control 
jumpers (VCP1, VCP2) are shown in the default 
position with the paging mic having top priority 
and the line input having priority 2. To reverse this, 
change all 6 jumpers from pin 1 and 2, to pins 2 
and 3.

The line priority ducking release time 

jumper is shown in the default position of 3 
seconds with pins 2 and 3 connected. To lengthen 
the release time to 30 seconds, change the jumper 
to pins 1 and 2.

Jumpers for left channel ducking 

disable are shown in the default position with 
ducking active. To defeat this feature for either 
priority 1 or priority 2 or both, change the 
appropriate jumpers from pin 1 and pin 2 to pins 2 
and 3. Remove jumper P1L and P2L completely to 
remove the priority audio from the left channel 
audio output.

Double check all jumpers for proper 

positioning. Place the top cover back on the unit. 
Start all four of the top screws before tightening all 
eight screws.

UNPACKING

Thank you for selecting the MPM1V and the MPM1 music 

and paging mixers. These high quality, versatile mixers can be 
used in countless applications to provide simple, easy control of 
multiple audio and video sources. Features include three stereo 
inputs for audio connection of CD and cassette players, radio 
tuners, VCR and DVD players, etc.; two priority inputs which 
allow paging and automatic music override for announcements 
or a jukebox; and a four band equalizer for enhancing the overall 
sound of the system. The MPM1V has three composite video 
inputs allowing VCR, DVD, cable and satellite box video 
switching simultaneously with the stereo audio. Both units have 
stereo and mono audio outputs and remote master volume 
control capabilities.

Housed in a single rack space unit with removable rack 

ears and designed for continuous operation, the MPM1 includes 
all the features necessary to operate most single zone sound 
system installations in night clubs,  sports bars,   health clubs, 
offices, restaurants or anywhere paging and/or priority inputs are 
required.
