the power off and then on again, and restart the computer.
• Be sure to wake the computer from
sleep/suspended/standby mode before making a
connection to the computer's USB connector.
• Connect the MW10 to the computer before turning the
MW10 power on.
• Always quit all applications running on the computer
before turning the MW10 power on or off, or connecting
or disconnecting the USB cable.
• Wait at least 6 seconds between turning the MW10 on or
off, and between connecting or disconnecting the USB
cable.
When connecting or disconnecting the USB cable
be sure to turn the 2TR IN/USB control all the way

Connecting Microphones and/or

"Input/Output" section on page 17, and the "Setting

Be sure turn the MW10
PHANTOM switch on when
using phantom-powered
condenser microphones.
DI
Although electric guitars and
basses can be connected
directly to the mixer's inputs,
the sound is likely to be thin
and possibly noisy. For best
results with these types of
instruments use a DI box
(direct box), guitar/bass
preamplifier, or amp simulator
between the instrument and
the mixer.
