Operation

1. POWER ON: Once you have made all the equipment connections to your mixer, press the POWER (14) switch. The power will turn on and the POWER LED (13) will glow RED.

2. CHANNEL 1: The GAIN (15), HIGH (16) and LOW (17) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source. Switch # (18) allows you to select either the MIC (11) or the LINE 1/PHONO 1 (10) input. The CHANNEL (19) slide controls the output level of this channel.

3. CHANNEL 2: The GAIN (20), HIGH (21) and LOW (22) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source. Switch # (23) allows you to select either the PHONO 2 (8) or the LINE 2 (7) input. The CHANNEL (24) slide controls the output level of this channel.

4. CHANNEL 3: The GAIN (25), HIGH (26) and LOW (27) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source. Switch # (28) allows you to select either the PHONO 3 (6) or the LINE 3 (4) input. The CHANNEL (29) slide controls the output level of this channel.

5. CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (36) allows the mixing of one source into another. The left side of the CROSSFADER (36) is channel 2 and the right side is channel 3. The CROSSFADER (36) 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 PLA TE 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.

Connections

1. Make sure that the POWER (14) switch is in the off position. The POWER LED (13) will be off. This unit comes supplied with a 15 volt

AC adaptor. Plug the male pin of the adaptor into the rear panel POWER JACK (1). Then plug the adaptor into a proper power source.

2. The XDJ-10 is supplied with 2 sets of amp output jacks. Use the MASTER 1 (3) or the MASTER 2 (2) jacks to connect to your mixer to your main amplifier. You can use the second set of jacks to connect the mixer to the record input of your recorder enabling you to record your mix or as a second zone with an additional amplifier.

3. The MIC (11) input (found on the front panel) accepts a 1/4" connector. Both balanced and unbalanced microphones can be used.

4. On the rear panel are 2 stereo PHONO (6, 8) inputs, 2 stereo LINE

(4, 7) inputs and 1 stereo PHONO/LINE (10) input. The PHONO/LINE (9) switch enables you to set the (10) input to Phono or Line. The

phono inputs will accept only turntables with a magnetic cartridge. A GROUND (5) screw 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. OUTPUT CONTROL: The level of the MASTER OUTPUT (2, 3) is controlled by the MASTER (30) control.

7. CUE SECTION: By connecting a set of headphones to the HEADPHONE (35) jack, you can monitor any or all of the channels. Select the correct CUE (31) button or buttons and their respective CUE LED (32) indicators will glow. Use the CUE LEVEL (33) control to adjust the headphone volume without effecting the overall mix. By sliding the CUE PGM PAN (34) control to the left you will be able to monitor the assigned cue signal. Sliding the CUE PGM PAN (34) to the right will monitor the PGM (program) output.

8. DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (12) indicates the MASTER output left and right levels.
