CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS 1. MONO INPUT SECTION (1) MIC INPUT The Mic input is an electronically balanced XLR type designed to accept signals from any balanced low impedance (Low Z) microphone. To accommodate condenser microphones, this input is also equipped with +48VDC phantom power globally switchable to all XLR input jacks with the Phantom Power switch (22) on the front panel.

(8) CHANNEL GAIN CONTROL The channel gain controls determine the output signal level to the Master Mix bus. There is no PFL function on the MXE-612. In order to audition any single channel for proper gain, you can turn off the gain control of all the other channels (fully counterclockwise), and set both the auditioned channel and Master Mix control (29) to unity gain (0 dB).
The stereo channel EQ’s operate in the same manner as those in the mono channels. The left and right signals will be affected equally. A stereo equalizer is generally preferable anyhow to using two mono equalizers when equalizing a stereo signal as it avoids possible discrepancies between the left and right settings.
CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS 3. MASTER SECTION a. AUX Sends/Returns Function and Operation STEREO AUX RETURNS (LEFT/MONO, RIGHT) (18) AUX RETURN CONTROL The Aux Return jacks are the mono or stereo returns for Aux Send. If you connect a signal to the Left/Mono Return jack only, the Aux Return will operate in mono and the signal will be routed to the Aux Return Control (18) and then mixed into the left and right Master Mix Stereo Outputs (11).
CONTROLS AND CONNECTIONS (19) (22) (23) (24) (31) (32) (33) The output level routed to the Stereo Outputs and REC Outputs is determined ultimately by the setting of the Master Mix Gain Control (29). The Master Mix (signal on the master bus) is the sum of the signals routed from all the channels and also the inputs from the AUX return bus and the TAPE Input (15).
(20) PHONES/CONTROL ROOM CONTROL (23) TAPE/REC TO CONTROL ROOM SWITCH The MXE-612 allows you to monitor the Master Mix. The signal level is adjusted with the Phones/Control Room control (20) and routed to both the Control Room (17) and Headphones (12) outputs.
