  • Page 6: Think Safety First

    Setup Guide THINK SAFETY FIRST! Much of the setup of the Escort is similar to the setup of other sound systems, and many aspects require plain common sense. ® Safety should always be your first concern. Always use grounded outlets and three-wire extension cords. Run sound system cables in a way to prevent the danger of tripping and tape them down if needed.
  • Page 7 Connecting Microphone(s) or Line Input(s) The Escort’s powered mixer is designed to work with any good-quality, balanced, dynamic or condenser microphone such as Peavey’s PV ® series of microphones. Connect the microphone to the XLR (three-pin) input connector as shown (Fig.5). If using multiple microphones, connect them in the order they will be on stage for easy adjustment to each microphone.

    Basic Operation: Setting Controls and Turning Unit On Before turning on power, make sure all speakers, microphones, and other input devices are connected. Set Master section controls to the 12 o’clock position and all other controls all the way down, (rotated fully to the left).
