NANO SERIES - M08BT / M12BT
USER GUIDE
®
The following features are applicable to both M08BT and M12BT. In case different features need to be described for each model,
M08BT will be described first, followed by M12BT.
1. MIC INPUT (CH 1 to CH 5/6 of M08BT, CH 1 to CH 9/10 of M12BT)
The MIC input is a balanced XLR-type input connector and accepts either BALANCED or
UNBALANCED signals. A +48V phantom power switch (at the rear panel) is provided to
power professional condenser mics.
NOTE:
ONLY connect condenser microphones with the +48V phantom power (34)
switched OFF, and ONLY switch on or off the +48V phantom power with all output
faders DOWN (∞), to prevent damage to the mixer or external devices.
BEST PRACTICES:
For best performance of your audio system, we suggest you
connect the top priority input signals, such as vocal microphones, to Mic input of
mono channels (CH 1 to CH 2 of M08BT, CH 1 to CH 6 of M12BT).
2. LINE INPUT (CH 1 to CH 2 of M08BT, CH 1 to CH 6 of M12BT)
The LINE input is a balanced TRS connector and accepts either BALANCED or UNBALANCED signals.
NOTE:
Unplug anything from the MIC input (1) before using the Line input jack.
3. INSERT (CH 1 to CH 2 of M08BT, CH 1 to CH 6 of M12BT)
The INSERT point uses a TRS connector and is a break in the channel signal path just before the EQ section, allowing limiters,
compressors, special equalizers or other signal processing units to be added in the signal path.
4. STEREO INPUT (CH 3/4 to CH 5/6 of M08BT, CH 7/8 to CH 9/10 of M12BT)
The L-R stereo input includes a pair of TRS sockets
.
To connect a stereo device, plug both the left and right input connectors. To
connect a mono input signal, only use the left input, then the signal will appear on both L and R of the Main Mix.
5. RCA STEREO INPUT (CH 7/8 of M08BT, CH 11/12 of M12BT)
The RCA stereo input is used to connect stereo devices like a CD player. To connect one, plug both the left
and right of the RCA stereo input.
6. LINE / USB PLAYER
The LINE / USB PLAYER button switches the line and the USB player mode of CH 7/8 (M08BT) or CH 11/12
(M12BT). Press down the button to switch on the USB player mode, then signal from the USB player module
(36) will be sent to the channel. Release the button to switch on the line mode, then signal from the line input
(5) socket will be sent to the channel.
7. GAIN
The GAIN knob sets the input signal level of the channel. When turning up the knob, ensure the highest tran
-
sients do not trigger the PEAK LED (13), otherwise, slightly turn down the knob. For each Mic input channel
(1), the adjustment range of the GAIN is 0-50 dB.
8. LOW CUT
Press the LOW CUT button to engage a 75 Hz low frequency filter with an 18 dB/oct slope. This LOW CUT
reduces the hum noise infected by the mains power supply or the rumble while using the microphone.
