AUX SEND
Below the Equalizer there is the stereo Aux send that can be set to send stereo source signals pre or post
fader by jumper settings. The factory default is post fader.
CUE
Below the equalizer you see the stereo CUE switch (Pre Fade Listening), this switch gives you the possibility
to check the signal before you mix it with your other signals .
ON
The ON switch is used to activate the module and generate a start signal for turntables and CD players as
well as jingle machines. This switch sends out a momentary pulse or shortens continuously two pins of the
Start connector on the back of the console.
FADER
Final control is the high quality K-Alps channel fader with fader start switch. All channels have long throw
100mm stereo faders.
At the beginning of the fader movement you will feel an internally built in start switch that is activated when
you bring up the fader. This switch
activates the start circuitry that is
connected to the Start Connector on
the back. CD players and play out
systems can be activated by this
circuitry. Also Red light is activated
if the SELF OP switch in the master
section is activated. Control Room
monitoring will be muted when a
Mic is opened (DJ setting).
INPUT CONNECTORS
On the back of your AIRMATE-USB
you find seven connectors.
The Mic input has already been
discussed, as this is the balanced or
symmetrical microphone input, the
Other two are the stereo line
inputs.
For Line B you can buy an optional available R.I.A.A. correction amp to be able to connect turn tables.
The level can be set by the gain control to match with every available cartridge.
For your info, this is an identical input as Line A.
The Cinch connector with LEFT printed is the left input and the other one is the right input.
The shield needs to be connected to the ground.
The START switch has two active connections to be wired. The tip and ring are shorted when the ON switch
or fader switch is activated. Once you have done this, you can start the turntable with the ON switch (if the
START connector is wired on the back panel).
These switches quick start turntables through the remote jack by a continuous contact action at the back of
the mixer. If your turntable only needs a pulse to start ask your dealer to modify the internal circuitry to
change it into a momentary action, so you can use it as a pulse start switch.
*NEVER CONNECT THE MAINS TO THIS REMOTE-JACK*
Connections on the START connector can only be made with a maximum of 24 Volts by 50 mA.
Please contact your dealer in case of doubt.
INSERT
This stereo jack connector let’s you insert signal processors such as compressors/gates or special voice
processing units to “upgrade” your voice to be the ultimate DJ voice.
The Tip of the stereo jack accepts the return signal and the Ring the sends a signal.
