User Manual

Layout identification:
1. MIC/Line 1 Signal Input
MIC/Line 1 signal input is replicated from the rear panel onto the front panel of the ZM 84 for ease of
access. MIC/Line/Phantom Power selection and gain control for this input is located on the rear panel.
2. AUX 4 Signal Input
Stereo line level input via L/R female phono (RCA) sockets.
3. MIC/Line 1-4 Tone Control
During initial setup the high frequency and low frequency tone adjustments should be set to the zero
point (3 O'clock position). Turn the level control anti clockwise to reduce the high/low frequency tones,
or turn clockwise to adjust the increase the high/low frequency tones. Adjustments should be made
gradually to avoid any sudden changes to the audio output.
4. MIC 1 Mute (VOX Priority) Adjustment
Microphone input 1 features automatic priority (VOX) over MIC/LINE channels 3 &4 plus AUX channels
1-4. To adjust the sensitivity, turn the potentiometer anti-clockwise for the clockwise to reduce the
sensitivity or clockwise to increase the sensitivity. Note: when the VOX priority is activated, both MIC/
Line1 and MIC/Line2 will be activated. When the VOX function is activated, the LED indicator will
illuminate amber.
5. MIC 2 Mute (VOX Priority) Adjustment
Microphone input 2 features automatic priority (VOX) over MIC/LINE channels 3 &4 plus AUX channels
1-4. To adjust the sensitivity, turn the potentiometer anti-clockwise for the clockwise to reduce the
sensitivity or clockwise to increase the sensitivity. Note: when the VOX priority is activated, both MIC/
Line1 and MIC/Line2 will be activated.
6. AUX 1-4 Tone Control
During initial setup the high frequency and low frequency tone adjustments should be set to the zero
point (3 O'clock position). Turn the level control anti clockwise to reduce the high/low frequency tones,
or turn clockwise to adjust the increase the high/low frequency tones. Adjustments should be made
gradually to avoid any sudden changes to the audio output.
7. Zone 1 Master Volume Controls
The Zone 1 master output volume is adjustable. Turn the level control anti clockwise to the lowest
setting, or turn clockwise to adjust to the highest setting.
8. Output VU Meter
The output level indicator (VU meter) has three green LEDs and two amber LEDs. During normal
operation, the output meter should show only green LEDs. As the output reaches maximum, the first
amber LED will illuminate followed by the red LED to in20dB over signal. Care should be taken
to keep the output signal within the green LEDs with only occasional peak’s illuminating the amber
LEDs. If the Red +20dB LED is illuminated, the output volume should be reduced.
