HOOKUP DIAGRAMS

Quick Start

1. Start with the following settings on the back of the
SRM450v2:
Turn the POWER switch off (down).
Set the TIMED TURNOFF, CONTOUR, and LOW CUT
switches out.
WARNING: Turn the LEVEL control
down (counterclockwise) before every
use. If not, you could be in for a startling
surprise, especially if the last time you
used it was with a microphone and now
you want to connect a line-level source.
2. Connect the output from your signal source (mixing
console, microphone, preamp, or other mic- or line-level
source) directly to the INPUT connector on the back of
the SRM450v2. It accepts balanced line-level signals from
mixers, preamplifiers, CD players, tape decks, etc., and
accepts direct connections from dynamic microphones.
3. Connect the supplied AC power cord to the IEC socket
on the back of the SRM450v2. Plug the other end into
an AC outlet properly configured with the correct
voltage for your particular model.

4. Turn on your signal source. Make sure its Master
Volume control (if it has one) is turned all the
way down.
5. Turn on the SRM450v2 POWER switch.
6. Start the signal source, whether it be speaking into a
microphone or starting a CD player. Adjust any volume
controls on the signal source for normal operation.
7. Slowly turn up the LEVEL control on the back of the
SRM450v2 until the desired volume is reached (and the
PEAK light does not come on) Always wear hearing
protectors if you are close when it is playing at high
levels.
8. If there is no sound, always turn down the SRM450v2
LEVEL control before investigating. There may be a
mixer or preamplifier mute or tape switch engaged,
or a mic switch off.
