Interfacing - PSC ProMix 6 Operational Manual

with the bottom row of batteries arranged so that the positive end is pointing into
the mixer and the top row so that the positive end of the batteries are pointing out
of the mixer (please see photo below). The battery door is removed by turning
the battery door thumbscrew counter-clockwise until the door comes free from
the mixer. The door is a universal fit, that is to say there is not a top or bottom to
the door. Please do not mix new and used batteries or alkaline and lithium
batteries as battery leakage may result. Please also do not store batteries in
your PSC ProMix 6 audio mixer for extended periods of time. Also do not leave
the mixer powered up when in storage. All of these actions may result in battery
leakage. Corrosion from leaking batteries may damage your mixer and this type
of damage is not covered under the PSC warranty.

INTERFACING:

To professional and some semi-professional cameras (XLR Inputs)
To interface your new ProMix 6 to one or two professional video cameras is
easily done. The most simple and convenient way is to use a PSC betasnake
cable. These umbilical cables provide a balanced left and right channel audio
feed to the camera and also a left and right channel audio monitor return line for
use in tape confidence monitoring. All of these functions are contained in a
single, very flexible cable. We sell these cables in 25' long standard versions
and 15' and 25' breakaway versions. The breakaway versions have a quick
disconnect plug near the camera end fan out portion of the cable to allow the
user to leave all of the various camera fan out connections in place and simply
just unplug one, quick disconnect plug. Though not as convenient, you can use
a pair of standard XLR cables to send audio from the ProMix 6 audio mixer to the
camera and a separate 3.5mm mini to 3.5mm mini cable to provide the tape
monitoring function. Please see the output level setting chart below for further
audio level recommendations:
