Open the lid, insert your CD and press the play button. Adjust volume to the

Setting the EQ controls.
Use the 3 equalizer (tone) controls to adjust for best sound quality and clarity.
The top-center mark indicates a ‘flat’ response.
For indoor and/or music playback:
Set the controls to the flat (12 o’clock) position, then adjust for desired sound
quality (be sure the voice switch is in the “norm” (normal) position).
Set the voice switch to the “norm” position when playing music and for most
indoor applications.
For outdoor / voice applications:
Set the voice switch to “loud” for outdoor and other applications where powerful
voice projection is needed.
Turn the 80 Hz control to the 9 o’clock position for maximum voice clarity (and
longer battery life).

Getting started.
Whether you’re a first-time user or an experienced presentation professional, the Sound
Machine SM-3neo was designed with you in mind. Easy to use and loaded with fea-
tures, you’ll need only a few minutes to set up and begin operation. This user guide is
full of valuable information — please read it!
!! Charge the battery!
The battery should be charged before the first use and before each use there-
after when using battery power. See “Charging the battery” on page 5.
1. Set up the sound system in front of your audience.
Proper set-up is important. For best sound distribution, put the unit on a
speaker stand or table so the sound projects over the audience.
Connecting an SM-3C Companion Speaker.
For expanded crowd coverage, connect unpowered
companion speaker SM-3C to the speaker output
jack on the lower panel of the Sound Machine.
Note: The speaker output is designed
specifically for use with the Sound Machine SM-3C companion
speaker and SC50-4W cable — do NOT use other type external
speakers or damage may result!)
2. Plug a microphone or audio source into an input jack.
Connect a microphone, tape player or other source to the matching input jack;
turn down the corresponding volume knob
before turning on the SM-3neo.
(See “Choosing an Input” on pages 6-7
for more information on input selection.)
If using the optional CD player or a wire-
less microphone system, use the corre-
sponding knob to control the input volume (see separate instructions for oper-
ation and features of optional equipment).
