4. QUICK START 

 
For the following procedure you will need a CD player and headphones. 
 

1. Set the controllers to their initial position 

Set the rotary controllers GAIN, HI, MID and LOW from channel 1 (17, 18, 19, 20) to the  central snap-in position. 
Put the channel fader (23) down and move the A/OFF/B switch (22) to position A (this channel is now assigned to 
the crossfaders' A side). 
 

2. Connect the headphones 

Connect  your  headphones  to  one  of  the  outputs  on  the  mixer's  front 
panel  (36).  Set  the  MONITOR  LEVEL  (35)  to  minimum  and  move  the 
MONITOR SELECT control (34) to the PFL position. 
 

3. Connect a CD player 

Connect a CD player to LINE input on channel 1 (39), insert a CD and 
play the CD. 
 

4. Connect the mixer's power cable 

Connect the power cable to power source input (54) on the mixer's back 
side and turn the mixer on by pressing the MAINS INPUT switch (52). 
 

5. Select the input source 

Make  sure  that  the  input  source  selector  on  channel  1  (13)  is  in  LINE 
position  and  that  the  channel's  VU-meter  (16)  lightens  up.  If  this  does 
not  happen  make  sure  that  CD  player  is  correctly  connected  and  that 
there is an audio track being played back. 
 

6. Adjust the input level 

Turn  the  GAIN  control  (17)  until  the  VU-meter  shows  0dB.  Each 
channel's  red  overload  LED  OVL  (14),  lightens  up  if  the  input  level  for 
this channel is to high and has to be diminished with the channel's GAIN 
controller. 
 

7. Send the signal to the main output 

Set  the  fader  on  channel  1  (23)  to  maximum  and  place  the  crossfader 
(24) on side A. 
 

8. Listen to the signal with your headphones 

Press  the  PFL  button  (21)  on  channel  1.  Adjust  the  MONITOR  LEVEL 
controller  (35)  to  obtain  a  comfortable  monitoring  volume.  Now  you 
should hear music with your headphones. Turn the MONITOR SELECT 
controller  (34)  to  the  right  to  crossfade  the  PFL  signal  and  the  MIX 
signal.  When  this  controller  is  completely  turned  to  the  right,  only  the 
MIX signal will be monitored. 
 

9. Try the operation of the tone controllers 

Experiment  with this powerful 3-way  stereo  equaliser (18,  19, 20). This 
tone  control  has  been  designed  for  a  creative  sound  edition: each way 
can  be  individually  isolated  using  the  big  and  ergonomic  rotary 
controllers. 
 

10. Check the adjustment of the crossfader 

Each channel can be assigned to the crossfader using the A/OFF/B selector switch. The crossfader allows you to 
melt the signals that are assigned to both of its sides. With this selector in position A or B, you assign the channel 
to one of both sides of the crossfader. The OFF position disables the crossfader's function on this channel. 
 

11. Adjust the crossfader curve 

The XFADER SHAPE controller (33) allows a fine adjustment of the crossfader curve's slope. Setting this controller 
all  left, the signal  is  diminished when the  crossfader  reaches  the  central  position, which allows mixing two  songs 
with  a  soft  melting.  The  crossfader  curve's  slope  increases  if  the  controller  is  turned  to  the  right.  When  is  gets 
completely  turned  to  the  right,  the  signal  enters  very  fast  with  hardly  a  movement  of  the  crossfader.  This  is  very 
useful for scratching.
