Cautions
1.Always test equipment before rack mounting. Retain a copy of your sales receipt for warranty purposes.
2.All operating instructions should be read before using this equipment.
3.To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the unit. There are NO USER REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Please refer servicing to a qualified service technician.
In the U.S.A., if you have any problems with this unit, call 1-732-738-9003 for customer service. Do not return equipment to your dealer.
4.Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or to a heat source such as a radiator or stove.
are signal (positive and negative) and one shield (ground). Pin 1 is ground (shield). Pin 2 is signal hot (positive). Pin 3 is signal cold (negative). The OUTPUT AMP (37) jacks are unbalanced and used to connect to your main amplifier. The OUTPUT BOOTH (38) jacks allow you to hook up an additional amplifier.
4.The MIC 1 (3) input (found on the front panel) accepts a 1/4" or XLR connector. The MIC 2 (51) input and the MIC 3 (50) input (found on the rear panel) accept 1/4" connectors. All accept balanced and unbalanced microphones.
5.On the rear panel are 1 stereo PHONO/LINE (46) input, 2 stereo
PHONO (42, 44) inputs, and 5 stereo LINE (39, 40, 41, 43, 45) inputs. The PHONO/LINE SWITCH (48) enables you to set the (46) input to Phono or Line. The phono inputs will accept only turntables with a magnetic cartridge. A GROUND SCREW (47) for you to ground your turntables is located on the rear panel. The stereo line inputs will accept any line level input such as a CD player, a cassette player, etc.
6.Headphones can be plugged into the front panel mounted
HEADPHONE (13) jack.
Using the Ground Lift Switch
Depending on your system configuration, sometimes applying the ground will create a quieter signal path. Sometimes lifting the ground can eliminate ground loops and hum to create a quieter signal path.
1.With the mixer on, listen to the system in idle mode (no signal present) with the ground applied (the GROUND LIFT SWITCH (52) in the bottom position).
2.Then turn the power off before moving the GROUND LIFT SWITCH (52). Lift the ground by moving the GROUND LIFT SWITCH to the top position, turn the power back on and listen to determine which position will provide a signal devoid of background noise and hum. Keep the GROUND LIFT SWITCH in the ground position if the noise level remains the same in either position.
CAUTION: DO NOT TERMINATE THE AC GROUND ON THE POWER MIXER IN ANY WAY. TERMINATION OF THE AC GROUND CAN BE
HAZARDOUS.

SUGGESTION: You can use the Cut Features on each channel to remove Low, Mid and/or High to create special effects.
6.CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (28) allows the mixing of one source into another. The PS-1000 PRO features an assignable crossfader. The ASSIGN (27, 29) switches allow you to select which channel will play through each side of the crossfader. The ASSIGN (27) switch has 5 settings (OFF, 1, 2, 3 or 4) and allows you to select channel 1, 2, 3 or 4 to play through the left side of the crossfader. The ASSIGN (29) switch has 5 settings (OFF, 1,
2, 3 or 4) and allows you to select channel 1, 2, 3 or 4 to play through the right side of the crossfader. With the ASSIGN switch in the off position, that side of the crossfader will be inactive. The CROSSFADER (28) in your unit is removable and if the need arises can be easily replaced. Crossfader units are available in three varieties. Part # RF-45 (which is identical to the crossfader supplied with the mixer) has a 45 mm travel from side to side. Part # RF-30 is available with a 30 mm travel distance. Also available is the PSF-45 with a special curve designed for scratch mixing. Just purchase one of these crossfader units from your Gemini dealer and follow these instructions:
1.Unscrew the outside FADER PLATE SCREWS (B). Do not touch the INSIDE SCREWS (C).
2.Carefully lift the fader and unplug the CABLE (D).
3.Plug the new fader into the cable and place it back in the mixer.
4.Screw the fader to the mixer.
7.OUTPUT CONTROL SECTION: The level of the AMP OUT (37, 49) is controlled by the MASTER (34) slide and the BALANCE CONTROL (33). The BOOTH (35) control adjusts the level of the BOOTH OUTPUT (38). HINT: The booth OUTPUT is used by some DJs to run monitor speakers in their DJ booth. You can also use it as a second
ZONE or AMP output. Activating the MONO (32) button (the mono LED will light) makes the master output mono.
8.TALKOVER SECTION: The purpose of the talkover section is to allow the program playing to be muted so that the mic can be heard above the music. The MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (9) controls MIC 1 and MIC
2and has three settings. When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (9) is in the left position, MIC 1 and MIC 2 and talkover are off. When the
MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (9) is in the center position MIC 1 and MIC
2are on, the MIC INDICATOR (8) will glow, but talkover is off. When the MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (9) is in the right position, MIC 1 and MIC 2 and talkover will be on and the volume of all sources except the Mic inputs are lowered by 16 dB. The TREBLE (4) and
BASS (5) controls allow you to fully adjust the tone of MIC 1 and MIC
2.MIC 1 LEVEL (7) controls the level of MIC 1. The MIC 2 LEVEL
(6) controls the level of MIC 2.
9.CUE SECTION: By connecting a set of headphones to the
HEADPHONE (13) jack, you can monitor any or all of the channels.
Press the CUE ASSIGN (20) buttons for channels 1 - 4 to select the channel or channels to be monitored and their respective LED indicators will glow. Use the CUE LEVEL (10) control to adjust the cue volume without effecting the overall mix. By rotating the CUE PGM PAN (12) control to the left you will be able to monitor the assigned cue signal. Rotating to the right will monitor the PGM
(program) output. Use the CUE SPLIT (11) button to split the signals from cue and program so that cue will be heard in one earphone and program will be heard in the other earphone.
10.DISPLAYS: The PEAK HOLD LED METER (30) indicates the MASTER OUTPUT (37, 49) left and right channel levels. The individual channels each have their own PREFADER INPUT LEVEL PEAK HOLD LED METERS (31) which reflect the GAIN (14), HIGH (15), MID (16), and LOW (17) rotary control adjustments. The
CHANNNEL SLIDES (19, 22, 24, 26) will not effect the PREFADER INPUT LEVEL PEAK HOLD LED METERS (31).
