Quick Start

Realizing that in most areas there are laws against reading owners manuals, and that reading them under the blankets at night
with a flashlight makes you feel stupid, we therefore provide this brief, yet informative, description of how to use the SM 26B just in
case your batteries are low and your mother is about to come in the room.
To achieve a quick understanding of the SM 26B, think of it as a six channel mixer with faders and pans only. Or think of it as a
2-to-6 channel splitter with output level controls and a mix knob (to control how much of which input goes to which output). If you
get that, you may stop here as long as you know how to hook up the power supply.
As a six channel mixer, MONO IN 1 through 6 may be placed on the Right or Left bus or both, in any amount. The respective
LEVEL knobs on the front of the unit serve as the mixer's faders, the adjacent PAN controls place the channel's signal into the stereo
field. As an effects mixer or line level expander for a larger mixer, set up the LEVELS and adjust the PANS. The MASTER OUT-
PUT LEVEL adjusts the overall level of the mix at the Master Outputs.
As a splitter, place one or both input signals into the LEFT and/or RIGHT Inputs. Select the Input(s) to be placed at each of the
six MONO OUTs by rotating the MIX/PAN control to the proper position. Set the individual channel LEVEL controls for proper
output level. The Master INPUT LEVEL control on the front adjusts both Right and Left Input signal levels together.
Never connect anthing except an RS 1 or other approved Rane AC power supply to the red thing that looks like a tele-
phone jack on the rear of the SM 26B. This is an AC input and requires some special attention if you do not have an operational
power supply exactly like the one that was originally packed with your unit. See the full explanation of the power supply require-
ments elsewhere in this manual.

    (see The Swiss Army Mixer RaneNote). Follow wiring conventions as in 1. 6 Remote power supply input: The SM 26B is supplied from the factory with a model RS 1 Remote Power Supply suitable for con- nection to this input jack. The power requirements of the SM 26B call for a 18-24 volt AC center-tapped transformer only. This is not a telephone jack.
