Chapter 3 : ShowBox Breakaway Mixer
Introduction
From top to bottom and left to right, each ShowBox Breakaway Mixer is outfitted with a bunch of knobs, buttons, jacks,
LEDs, and more. So much more, in fact, that we will call out and describe each one... after a quick look at the top panel,
we’ll go to the rear panel features, then back to the top.
The Breakaway Mixer may either be docked with the ShowBox or removed and used as a wired controller
(mounted onto a standard mic stand using the included mic stand mount clip, see page 35).
Breakaway Mixer Data Port
This port sends and receives data to/from the breakaway mixer via the included CAT5 cable. This port is on the breakaway mixer.
It will connect to the same data port on the ShowBox.
Additionally, the data port provides power to the USB-C connector on the rear panel of the breakaway mixer, as seen below-left.
If the included CAT5 cable goes missing, gets chewed up by the cat and/or dog, and/or otherwise does not work,
any major-brand CAT5 cable would make a fine replacement. Just make sure it’s long enough to easily connect
the ShowBox to the breakaway mixer.
