Power/Reset LED — This power indicator lights green when the MVC 121 Plus
is operational. The LED also blinks per mode reset.

Configuration (Config) port — Connect a PC to the USB Mini-B connector for
configuring the MVC using the DSP Configurator Software. The MVC 121 Plus
USB driver must be installed prior to using this port.

Mic 1 input gain control — Rotating the encoder screw clockwise increases the gain setting. Rotating the encoder screw
counterclockwise decreases the gain. This adjustment controls the single gain point in the mix matrix that mixes mono mic 1
levels to the stereo output bus.
d
Mic 2 input gain control — Rotating the encoder screw clockwise increases the gain setting. Rotating the encoder screw
counterclockwise decreases the gain setting. This adjustment controls the single gain point in the mix matrix that mixes
mono mic 2 levels to the stereo output bus.
e
Line level input 3 gain control — Rotating the encoder screw clockwise increases the gain setting. Rotating the encoder
screw counterclockwise decreases the gain setting. This adjustment controls the single gain point in the mix matrix that
mixes line level input 3 to the stereo output bus.
f
LED ladder indicator bar — As the mix-point gain or output volume increases or decreases, the LED indicator bar lights
from the bottom to the top to indicate the current mix-point or volume level. As the volume is increased or decreased within
a volume range, the top lit LED flashes once. If the knob is turned past maximum volume, all 8 LEDs flash for as long as the
knob continues to be turned. After 3 seconds of inactivity, the knob controls the variable volume output.
g
Volume level adjust knob — Rotating the adjustment knob clockwise increases the output volume. Rotating the knob
counterclockwise decreases the volume.
