CAUTIONS:
1. All instructions should be read before using this equip-
ment.
2. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the
unit. Please refer all servicing needs to a Gemini-qualified
service technician.
3. Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or a heat source
such as a radiator or stove.
4. This unit should be cleaned only with a damp cloth. Avoid
solvents or other cleaning detergents.
5. When moving this equipment it should be placed in its
original carton and packaging. This will reduce the risk of
damage during transit.
6. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOIS-
TURE .
7. DO NOT USE SPRAY CLEANERS OR LUBRICANTS
ON CONTROLS, SURFACES OR SWITCHES .
CONNECTIONS:
1. Ensure that the POWER (3) switch is in the OFF position
prior to making any connections. Plug into the rear panel
POWER JACK (2) before plugging it into a proper power
source.
NOTE: LOCATED BY THE POWER CORD (2) JACK IS A 250V FUSE
(42) TO PROTECT AGAINST ELECTRICAL SURGES. TO REPLACE
THE FUSE, PLACE A FLAT HEAD SCREWDRIVER INTO THE
GROOVE LOCATED INSIDE THE POWER CORD JACK (2) AND POP
THE FUSE OUT. REPLACE THE FUSE WITH ONLY A 250V FUSE.
2. The PMX-04 has 2 sets of outputs:
- The MASTER OUTPUT (4) jacks also connect to the
main amplifier with RCA cables.
- The REC OUTPUT (41) jacks can be used to connect
the mixer to the record input of your recording unit, thus
enabling you to record your mix by connecting these units
with
RCA cables.
3. Headphones may be plugged into the front panel-mount-
ed HEADPHONES (16) ¼" jack.
4. Microphones may be plugged into the front panel-mount-
ed MICROPHONE (12) ¼" jack.
5. The PMX-04 has 2 CONVERTIBLE PHONO/LINE (7, 8)
RCA inputs located on the back panel on either side of the
MASTER (4) RCA input. Facing the back panel, the con-
vertible RCA Input on your right is for PHONO 1/ LINE 1
(8). The convertible RCA input on your left is for PHONO
2/ LINE 3 (7). Using the PHONO/ LINE SWITCHES (5, 6),
located just below each input, you may convert the
PHONO (PH) to LINE (LN) and vice versa. Plug the
RCA 's from your playable medium into each input to be
connected to their respective channels ( CH ). The PH
INPUTS only accept turntables with a magnetic cartridge.
The STEREO LINE INPUTS only accept line level inputs
such as a CD , DAT , MINIDISC , etc and require the prop-
er switch setting.
6. When using (a) turntable(s), you will need to ground the
RCA cable(s) by screwing in the grounding fork(s) to the
GROUNDING SCREWS (9) located in the back panel of
the PMX-04 mixer. Attach each PH ground line to one of
the DUAL GROUND THUMB SCREWS (9). These are
adjacent to each RCA PH input.
NOTE: WHEN USING TURNTABLES, NOT ATTACHING A GROUND
MAY CAUSE A SYSTEM "HUM."
OPERATION:
1. POWER ON: Once all equipment connections have
been made, press POWER (3) switch. Power is ON when
the VU METER LED (40) is illuminated.
2. CH 1: The GAIN (22), HIGH (23), MID (24), and LOW
(25) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source.
The
PH-1/LN-1 (6) switch located on the rear panel
allows you to select PH 1 or LN 1 . The PH1/LN1-LN 2
SWITCH (21) located on the front allows you to switch
from PH 1 to LN 2 or LN 1 to LN 2 . CH 1 SLIDE (26) con-
trols the input level of this channel.
3. CH 2: The GAIN (28), HIGH (29), MID (30), and LOW
(31) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source.
The
PH-2/LN-3 SWITCH (5) located on the rear panel
allows you to select PH 2 or LN 3 . The PH2/LN3-LN 4
SWITCH (27) located on the front allows you to switch
from PH 2 to LN 4 or LN 3 to LN 4 . CH 2 SLIDE (32) con-
trols the input level of this channel.
NOTE: FOR OPTIMAL PERFORMANCE, BEGIN PROGRAM MIX
WITH ROTARY GAIN (22, 28) CONTROLS SET TO ZERO (ROTATE
IT COUNTERCLOCKWISE TO THE LEFT POSITION). MAKE ALL
ADJUSTMENTS IN SOUND OUTPUT WITH THE USE OF YOUR CH
SLIDE CONTROLS (26,32) AND MASTER (39) VOLUME ROTARY
CONTROLS. THIS WILL PREVENT SIGNAL OVERLOAD AND
DECREASE DISTORTION. ONCE YOU HAVE MODIFIED YOUR
SOUND AND WOULD LIKE TO INCREASE THE OUTPUT OF YOUR
SOUND, THEN YOU MAY ADJUST THE ROTARY GAIN CONTROL IF
NEEDED.
4. CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (33)
allows the mixing of one source into another. The left side
of the
CROSSFADER (33) is CH 1 (26) while the right
belongs to CH 2 (32). You may also reverse this default
by switching the Hamster/Reverse (20) switch. The
CROSSFADER (33) in your unit is removable and if the
need arises can be easily replaced. Your GEMINI mixer
comes with an RG-45 (RAILGLIDE™) DUAL-RAIL
