Si PERFORMER KEY FEATURES

ADVICE FOR THOSE WHO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES
Although your new console will not output any sound until you feed it signals, it has the
capability to produce sounds which when monitored through an amplifier or headphones
can damage hearing over time.
Please take care when working with your audio — if you are manipulating controls which
you don't understand (which we all do when we are learning), make sure your monitors
are turned down. Remember that your ears are the most important tool of your trade,
look after them, and they will look after you.
Most importantly — don't be afraid to experiment to find out how each parameter affects
the sound — this will extend your creativity and help you to get the best from your mixer
and the most respect from your artists and audience.
