  EFFECT" A Trans Effect is an effect similar to cutting the output signal with your transformer switches. 

 

  This is an effect used heavily by scratchers and performer DJ's. The mixer simulates this effect when you 

 

  hold down the X and Y fader buttons. The speed of the transform is preset and will only effect any channel 

 

  assigned to the fader assign button being depressed.

4.     CHANNEL FADER - These faders are used to control the output signal of any source assigned to its 
 

  particular channel.  

5.     SPLIT CUE - This button will activate the "Split Cue" function. When used with a set of stereo head-
 

  phones, the Split Cue function assign the Cue signal the left channel of the headphones and assigns the 

 

  Program (main output) signal to the right channel of the headphones. Essentially splitting the cue signal 

 

  in half. Please note that this function will only work with a set of stereo headphones. 

6.    CUE LEVEL VOLUME CONTROL - This knob is used to adjusts the headphone output level. 

7.  

CUE MIXING CONTROL - This functions allows you to monitor the Cue level as well as the Program 

 

 (main output) level in your headphones. A channels Cue Level may only be monitored if the channels 

 

 Cue function is selected. To selected a channels cue function depress the Cue Button (21) that is directly 

 

 associated with the specific channel you wish to monitor. You may use the mixing function to blend 

 

 both the Cue level and the Program level together. You can vary the output level to either hear more 

 

 or less of either of the two levels. Turning the Cue Mixing knob to the CUE position (counter-clockwise) 

 

 will allow you to hear more of the Cue level. Turning the knob to the PGM (clockwise) position will allow

 

 you to hear more of the Program level (main output). You may also use the Cue Mixing Control to hear 

 

 either the Cue level or the Program level exclusively. If the knob is in the full CUE position you will only 

 

 hear the cue level, if the knob is in the full PGM position you will only hear the main output. This function

 

 will especially be useful for occasions when an external monitor is not available.  

8.    CROSSFADER CURVE ADJUSTMENT - This adjustment allows you to adjust the geometry or "shape" 
 

 of the crossfader response curve. The response curve can be adjusted from smooth to harsh (Instant). 

 

 The smooth adjustment - full counter clockwise - allows for a long running crossfade. This adjustment 

 

 will usually be used for normal DJ'ing. The harsh adjustment - full clockwise adjustment - allows for a 

 

 short crossfade. This adjustment will usually be used for scratching and cut effects.

9.    TALKOVER BUTTON - When this button is depressed, all signals except the microphone level are 
 

 decreased by 15dB. A red indicator LED will glow when the talkover function is engaged. In the OFF 

 

 position all signals remain at their standard levels. 

10. MIC 3 INPUT JACK - Combination Microphone Plug. This jack will accept a standard 1/4" male plug or 
 

 XLR 3-pin balanced male plug.  The volume output level will be controlled by the Channel 3 Fader (4).

11.  CHANNEL GAIN CONTROL - This adjustment is used to adjust an audio source signal input gain for a 
 

 channel. Never use the gain control to adjust output volume. Setting the gain level properly will ensure a 

 

 clean output signal. To properly set the gain level controls:

 

  1. Be sure the Master Volume Control (16) is set to minimum (zero output).

 

  2. Set the Channel Fader (4) to level 7.

 

  3. Begin play on an audio source connected to the channel you are adjusting.

 

  4. Be sure the LED Level Indicator Function Switch (15) is set to the PFL/MASTER position.

 

  5. Turn  the  CUE (21) function on for the channel you are adjusting.

 

  6. Use the GAIN Control to adjust an average output volume of +4 dB in the LED Level Indicator (13).

12.  CHANNEL EQUALIZER "ROTARY KILLS" - BASS/MID/TREBLE CONTROL - Each of the three 
 

 channels come with a signal output EQ. These controls are used to increase or decrease the LOW's, 

 

 MID’s, and HI’s of the output signal. The Q-MX1 features "Rotary Kills" with a -30dB to +20dB gain control. 

 

 Turn the knob counter-clockwise to decrease a value or clockwise to increase a value.

13.  LED LEVEL INDICATORS - The dual LED's indicators along the top of unit are used to detail
