Mic Gain Control; Level Control; Treble And Bass Controls - YORKVILLE YX Series Owner's Manual

1. Mic In
The balanced XLR microphone input can be used with any dynamic microphone.
2. Line In
The balanced XLR & 1/4-inch input can be used with any line source such as an iPod, CD player
or an electronic instrument with a line-level signal. It's always recommended to use balanced
sources, this helps prevent the risk of hum or buzz associated with unbalanced connections
(especially if the cable is long or the source is operated from a separate AC power connection).
The CH2 level control affects both the Mic Input as well as the Line In; it is not recommended to
use both at the same time.
3. Link In
The link in is used to connect multiple YX10Ps together, for example the master monitor link
out would be connected to the slave monitor Link In and so on. The Link In and the Link Out
jacks are connected in parallel and could be used as a line out to send signals to a powered
subwoofer such as the YX10SP or any other powered monitor that uses a line in. Please note,
the gain and tone controls affect the level.
4. Link Out
To allow operation of multiple YX10P loudspeakers from a single source, the Link Out connector
is provided. It should be connected to the Line In of the next YX10P in the chain. When
connecting multiple YX10P loudspeakers, the last YX10P in the chain should be turned off first
(and on last). Each YX10P should be turned on or off before the previous YX10P in the chain.
This will eliminate unwanted on/off noises.

5. Mic Gain Control

The microphone level control adjusts the mic level of the loudspeaker. It also adjusts the mic
level on all YX10P enclosures in the chain (if multiple YX10P enclosures are used). The main Level
control should be set to maximum when the microphone is being used.

6. Level Control

The level controls (ch.1 & 2) set the level of all sound coming out of the YX10P enclosure.
If using multiple enclosures via the link jacks, the first YX10P will control the volume level
of the rest of the cabinets. This is true unless another cabinet in the chain has an input
signal connected from another source, in which case that level control will also affect the
subsequent units down the chain.
Please note that if your using the first YX10P as master to slave another YX10P, the level control
on the slave unit will not affect the volume level, only the level control on the master will set
the volume level on the slave YX10P.

7. Treble and Bass Controls

These controls affect all the sound coming out of a particular YX10P enclosure. In a
system with multiple cabinets it will be necessary to only adjust the bass and treble
controls on the Master YX10P.
8. Signal / Limit LED
This dual LED illuminates green when signal is present and red when limiting.
9. Shield Switch
The Shield switch disconnects the ground connection on the Line In. This may help prevent hum or
buzz under some circumstances.
10. Power LED and Switch
The Power Switch turns the power on and off for the YX10P enclosure, the green LED will
illuminate when the power is on also indicating a properly functioning fuse.
