INPUTS/OUTPUTS:

The Q-MX1 allows you two types of output connectors Balanced XLR (23) and Unbalanced RCA (30, 31, 
and 32)
. Use these connection to connect  the output signal from a mixer, cross-over or EQ to your Q-MX1 
mixer. A balanced connection is recommended for cable runs longer that 10ft. When constructing your own XLR 
cables follow the pin confi guration describe below for proper connections. For cable runs shorter than 10Ft. 
you may choose the RCA unbalanced output option. The unbalanced output option may be more convenient 
for most users due to the abundant supply of prefabricated cables on the market.

All the input options on the mixer are unbalanced RCA's. For best results do not use cable run longer than 10ft 
for any incoming audio source, longer cable runs will result in inferior sound quality.

•    Before you connect the unit's main power supply, be sure local voltage matches that of the required mixer 
 

 voltage. Remember the mixer can be selected to operate with either 115v or 230v. Operational can be 

 

 changed by the Voltage Selector (22) on the rear of the unit. 

•   Be sure the power switch is in the OFF position before making any type of connections to the mixer. Also  
 

 be  sure the power on all units being connected to the mixer have been switched off.

 all your amplifier are in  the "OFF" position.

 are set properly. When using the Balanced Output Jacks (23) be sure your cable follow the above Pin

•    For recording, connect your tape recorder or cassette deck to the REC OUT Jacks (32). The Record Out 
 

 level  will not be influenced by the Master Volume Control (16). The Record Out (REC OUT) level is  

 

 dictated by the Channel Fader Level (4).

•    Connect a microphone to any of the three available Mic Input Jacks (10, 26, & 27). 

•    You can connect up to 3 turntables using the Phono 1 (39), Phono 2 (36), or Phono 3 (34) RCA jacks on 
 

 the rear  panel. The mixer will only accept turntable level signal if Line Level Switches (37) are in the 

 

 "PHONO" position.

 Level  Input Jacks (33, 35, and 38) on the rear panel. CD players, cassette decks and other line level
