s Manual

Getting Started

READ THIS PAGE!!

Even if you never reads manuals, please 
read and digest the safety instructions 
on page 2, and this page before you 
begin using the d.2 mixer.

Zero the Controls

1.  Turn the rear panel POWER switch off.

2.  Turn down the LEVEL controls for MIC, PGM 1 and 

PGM 2, and center all EQ, PAN, and BAL controls.

3.  Set all push button switches to their “out” positions.

4.  In the CONTROL section (right hand side), turn all 

the rotary knobs down, and the switches out.

5.  Set the PROGRAM Faders fully down.

6.  On the front panel, set the REVERSE switches out.

7.  Center the CROSSFADER.

Connections

If you already know how you want to connect the d.2, 

go ahead and connect the inputs and outputs the way 
you want them. If you just want to get sound through 
the d.2 mixer, follow these steps:

1.  Plug a signal source to the d.2. This could be a:

 •  Microphone into the MIC input

• 

Turntable into a PHONO input (push in the 
rear panel LINE/PHONO switch)

• 

Line-level source such as a CD player into the 
PHONO input (push out the LINE/PHONO 
switch)

• 

Line-level source such as a CD player into a CD 
input.

2.  If you are using the PHONO input, make sure you 

set the LINE/PHONO switch correctly.

3.  Connect cords from the d.2’s MAIN OUTs (XLR or 

RCA connectors on the rear panel) to your powered 
speakers or amplifi er.

4.  Plug in the detachable linecord, connect it to a live 

AC outlet, and turn on the d.2’s POWER switch.

5.  If you have powered speakers, turn them on. Other-

wise, hook up your speakers to the amp and turn it 
on. Adjust your powered speaker or amplifi er level 
controls to however the manufacturer recommends. 
(This is usually all the way up.)

Set the Levels

To set the LEVEL controls, it’s not even necessary 

to hear what you’re doing at the outputs of the mixer. 
If you want to listen while you work, plug headphones 
into the PHONES jack on the front panel, then set the 
PHONES knob up a little.

1.  Select the input using the SOURCE switch.

2.  Play something into the selected input. Be sure 

that the volume of the input source is the same as 
it would be during normal use. If it isn’t, you might 
have to readjust these levels during the middle of a 
set.

3.  Center the TRANSFORM switch. There will be no 

output, but the PROGRAM METER will still work. 

4.  Adjust the channel’s rotary LEVEL control so that 

the LEDs on the PROGRAM meter stay around “0” 
and +4, and never go higher than “+7.”

5.  Apply some EQ if needed, (return to step 4 if you 

do, just to check the levels are still OK).

6.  Repeat for the other channel (if you want to).

Set the MIC Levels

1.  To level the microphone input, keep the ON button 

off, and talk or sing at your highest expected level. 

2.  Adjust the MIC LEVEL until the OL LED next to it 

only comes on occasionally.

Instant Mixing

1.  To get sound out of the speakers, press the TRANS-

FORM switch up (the latched position), turn up the 
PROGRAM fader, and slowly rotate the MAIN control 
to a comfortable listening level.

2.  Sing and play. You’re a star! Bring in the other 

channel, play with the CROSSFADER, and generally 
have fun.

Other Nuggets of Wisdom

•   Always turn down the MAIN, BOOTH, and PHONE 

knobs before making any connections.

•   When you shut down your equipment, turn off the 

amplifi ers fi rst. When powering up, turn on the 
amplifi ers last.

•   Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods. 

Please see the Safety Instructions on page 2 for 
information on hearing protection.
