User Manual
Keep this device away from rain and moisture!
Safety Instructions
Every person involved with the installation, operation and maintenance of this system has to:
- be qualified
- follow the instructions of this manual
Before you initial start-up, please make sure that there is no damage caused by transportation. Should
there be any, consult your dealer and do not use the system.
To maintain perfect condition and to ensure a safe operation, it is absolutely necessary for the user to
follow the safety instructions and warning notes written in this manual.
Please consider that damages caused by manual modifications to the system are not subject to
warranty.
This system contains no user-serviceable parts. Refer servicing to qualified technicians only.
With a dangerous voltage you can suffer
IMPORTANT:
The manufacturer will not accept liability for any resulting damages caused by the non-observance of
this manual or any unauthorized modification to the system.
Never let the power-cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power-cord and all
connections with the mains with particular caution!
Never remove warning or informative labels from the unit.

Disposing of this product should not be placed in municipal waste and should be
separate collection.
Never use anything to cover the ground contact.
Never leave any cables lying around.
Do not insert objects into air vents.
Do not connect this system to a dimmer pack.
Do not switch the system on and off in short intervals, as this would reduce the system’s life.
Do not open the device and do not modify the device.
Do not drive the inputs with a signal level bigger, than required to drive the equipment to full output.
Do not plug Mics into the console (or stage box) while Phantom Power is on. Also mute the monitor /
Pa system when turning Phantom Power on or off. Allow the system to adjust for a couple of seconds,
before setting the input gains.
Only use system indoor, avoid contact with water or other liquids.
Avoid flames and do not put close to flammable liquids or gases.
Always disconnect power from the mains, when system is not used. Only handle the power-cord by
the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power-cord.
Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to the electrical system ground.
Make sure you don’t use the wrong kind of cables or defective cables.
Make sure that the signals into the mixer are balanced, otherwise hum could be created.
Make sure you use DI boxes to balance unbalanced signals; All incoming signals should be clear.
Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the rear panel.
Make sure that the power-cord is never crimped or damaged. Check the system and the power-
cord from time to time.
Please turn off the power switch, when changing the power cord or signal cable, or select the input
mode switch.
Extreme frequency boosts in connection with a high input signal level may lead to overdriving your
equipment. Should this occur, it is necessary to reduce the input signal level by using the INPUT
control.
To emphasize a frequency range, you don’t necessarily have to move its respective control upward;
try lowering surrounding frequency ranges instead. This way, you avoid causing the next piece of
equipment in your sound path to overdrive. You also preserve valuable dynamic reserve
(“headroom”)
Avoid ground loops! Always be sure to connect the power amps and the mixing console to the
same electrical circuit to ensure the same phase!
If system is dropped or struck, disconnect mains power supply immediately. Have a qualified
engineer inspect for safety before operating.
If the system has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not
switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your system. Leave the
system switched off until it has reached room temperature.
If your Dap Audio device fails to work properly, discontinue use immediately. Pack the unit securely
(preferably in the original packing material) and return it to your Dap Audio dealer for service.
Repairs, servicing and electric connection must be carried out by a qualified technician.
For replacement use fuses of same type and rating only.
WARRANTY: Till one year after date of purchase.

Installation
Introduction
This is a professional compact mixer that gives you great quality and better reliability than ever before.
You will get the smooth, accurate more natural and open sound from this apparatus. It is really ideal for
gigs, recording and fixed PA installations.
The GIG-104C Mixing Console is packed with features that cannot be found in other consoles of its size: 2
mono (provided with ultra-low noise microphone pre-amplifiers and Phantom Power at +48 Volt ) and 4
stereo input channels, each of them provided with a 3-band equalizer for HI, MID and LOW control, as
well as 1 auxiliary control, highly accurate 8-segment bar graph meter and 2-track input assignable to
main mix, control room/phones Outputs etc.
This unit is very easy to operate, but we advise you to go through each section of this manual carefully.
Ready to start
1) Please check the AC voltage available in your country before connecting your mixer to the
AC socket.
2) Be sure that the main power switch is turned off before connecting the mixer to the AC
socket. You should also make sure that all input and output controls are turned down. This
will avoid damage to your speakers and avoid excessive noise.
3) Always turn on the mixer before you turn on the power amplifier; turn off the mixer after the power
amplifier is turned off.
4) Before connecting and disconnecting the unit from the power source, always turn off the unit.
5) Cleaning: Disconnect the mains power supply and then wipe the mixer with a damp cloth. Do not
immerse in liquid. Do not use alcohol or solvents.

1. MIC INPUT JACKS (CHs 1 to 5/6)
The balanced XLR input connects to microphones, DI boxes and
multicores.
2. LINE INPUT JACKS (CHs 1,2)
This is a ¼" jack connector which connects to line-level signal sources
(for example, keyboards, CD players and wireless microphone
receivers). The input is balanced (TRS connector) but can also be used
with unbalanced connectors (TS connector).
3. LINE INPUT JACKS (CHs 3/4 to 9/10)
The stereo channels consist of two line inputs (¼" jacks), one for the left
and one for the right channel. The inputs are unbalanced
(TS connectors). These channels can also be used as mono channels by
connecting to the jack labeled “L” (left).
4. LINE INPUT JACKS (CH 7/8, 9/10)
These are unbalanced stereo RCA pin jacks.
NOTE: Where an input channel provides both a MIC input jack and a
LINE input jack or a LINE input jack and RCA pin jack, you can only use
one pair of jacks at a time but not both pairs at the same time. Please
connect to only one jack on each channel.
5. INSERT JACKS
The INS(ert) connector (¼" stereo jack connector) is used to connect to
external signal processors. Here you can hook up a compressor, noise
gate or equalizer to process the signal of a single channel. The insert
jack is placed before the fader, EQ and aux send. Please use an insert
cable to connect to the insert point.
6. GAIN CONTROL
The GAIN CONTROL control adjusts the input gain.
Be sure to set this control fully counter-clockwise before you connect or
disconnect a signal source to or from one of the inputs.
MONO: The first value range between 0 and +50 refers to the
microphone input, indicating the degree of amplification applied to
the input's signal. The second value range between +15 and -35 dB
refers to the amplification of the line input.
STEREO: The first value range between 0 and +40 refers to the
microphone input, indicating the degree of amplification applied to
the input's signal. The second value range between +20 and -20 dB
refers to the amplification of the line input.
7. LOW CUT
Press the LOW CUT switch to activate the high-pass filter which blends
out low-frequency noise (100 Hz, 18 dB/octave).
8. COMPRESSOR CONTROL
Adjust the amount of compression applied to the channel. Turn the
control to the right to increase the compression ratio and the output
gain will automatically be adjusted. The result is smoother, more even
dynamics, because louder signals are attenuated when the overall
level is boosted.
