A. CONNECTORS
Your powered mixer uses several types of input and
output connectors.
1. XLR Input jacks
Electronically balanced inputs accept a standard XLR
male connector. Pin1=ground, pin2=hot or po)
and pin3=cold or negative (-) (see Figure 1).
These connectors should be utilized for low impedance
microphones. If you are using a high impedances
microphone, it will likely have a cord with a 1/4
＂
connector on it. In this case, it would be appropriate
to plug such microphones into a line input, however
performance, and gain may be lessened. for best
performance. We recommend you invest in one of the
many higher quality, low impedance mics available on
the market, or alternatively, purchase an impedance
matching transformer from your dealer.
2. 1/4 ″ Phone Input Jacks
These tip / sleeve jacks accept an unbalanced line
level signal using a normal male phone plug.
(See Figure 1.)
3. Speaker Output Jacks
The speaker output jacks are 1/4
″ two conductor
jacks. Their power output and function are dependent
upon the particular unit that you are using.
4. RCA Phone Jacks
The RCA jacks accept unbalanced male pin
connectors.

Now that you have decided which mode and type of
system operation you will use, You are ready to make
our system connections and settings on your
SM-powered Mixer.
(See Hookup diagram on page 15)
1. Switch everything to OFF.
This includes your SM mixer and all devices in the
system.
2. Set the Amp Assign switch to the L+R/Monitor
(in) position.
3. Connect the input devices into the six or eight
mono input channels
.
Group your microphone channels and instrument
channels to make mixing easier.
4. Connect the input devices into the two
Stereo input and sub input channels:
Using standard 1/4 ″ shielded cables, connect the
desired devices into the stereo input channels:
Keyboards, drum machines, tape programs etc.
5. Connect the tape and/or CD player.
If you are feeding a signal from a tape or CD player
into your mixer, using a stereo RCA cable, connect
the output jacks of the tape or CD player to the tape
in jacks of your mixer.
If you wish to record the output of your mixer,
using a stereo RCA cable, connect the tape out jack
of your mixer to the input jacks of the tape player.
