INSTANT SETUP

Getting Started

1. Ensure all power is turned off on your mixer. To
totally ensure this, the AC cable should not be
connected to the unit.
2. All faders and level controls should be set at the
lowest level and all channels switched off to en-
sure no sound is inadvertently sent through the
outputs when the device is switched on. All levels
can be altered to acceptable degrees after the
device is turned on.
�. Plug all necessary instruments and equipment
into the device's various inputs as required.
This may include line signal devices, such as
keyboards and drum machines, as well as micro-
phones and/or guitars, keyboards, etc.
4. Plug any necessary equipment into the device's
various outputs. This could include amplifiers and
speakers, monitors, signal processors, and/or
recording devices.
5. Plug the supplied AC power supply into the inlet
on the rear of the device and then into a power
outlet of a suitable voltage.
�. Turn the power switch on and follow the chan-
nel setup instructions to get the most out of your
equipment.

Channel Setup

1. To ensure the correct audio level of the input
channel is selected, each of the level input con-
trols of the Mixer should be turned counterclock-
wise as far as they will turn (which should be the
-∞ mark).
2. No input other than the one being set should
have any device plugged in. This will ensure the
purest signal is used when setting channels.
�. Ensure the channel has a signal sent to it similar
to the signal that will be sent when in common
use. For example, if the channel is using a mi-
crophone, then you should speak or sing at the
same level the performer normally would during a
performance; if a guitar is plugged into the chan-
nel, then the guitar should also be strummed as
it normally would be (and so on). This ensures
levels are completely accurate and avoids having
to reset them later.
4. Set the gain so the level meter indicates the au-
dio level is around 0 dB.
5. This channel is now ready to be used; you can
stop making the audio signal.
�. You can repeat the same process for other chan-
nels.
