Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Can you tell us what is the frequency response of the BK-42 series mixer?

A: Frequency response is 20-20,000 Hz ±1 dB.

Q: How much total harmonic distortion can I expect from the mixer?

A: Harmonic distortion of the mixer is <0.05% at 4dBu and <0.10% at 24 dBu.

Q: What signal to noise ratio is it designing the mixer with?

A: The signal to noise ratio is 79 dB when measured directly with masters at nominal with all inputs off.

Q: Can this mixer's microphone inputs apply the phantom power needed?

A: Yes, it applies 48 V dc phantom power supplied externally at pin 2 and 3 in the microphone input connector.

Q: What is the upper limit of the level of the input that can be applied on line inputs?

A: The compensating input for the line inputs is +24 dBu (12 volts).
