CONNECTIONS

Except for microphones and headphone, all connections are cinch. Use good quality cinch-cinch cables to prevent bad audio quality. (example: JB Systems code: 2-0370) For more information on connections, please refer to the next chapter. Be sure to turn off the mixer before you make changes to the different connections. In this manual we talk about “line inputs”. This is a global name for inputs with a level between 750mV and 2V. This includes tuners, videos, CD-players, etc.

jack. Together with the cue selector (9) and the cue level (10) you can use it to listen to the selected input channel.

12. Master volume: Controls the level of the master output. You can adapt this level

to your personal taste.

13. Input selector channel5: You can choose between the 2 line inputs connected

on the rear of the mixer. Both sources can be connected at the same time, just select which one you want to select on channel 5.

14. Input selector channel4: You can choose between a phono, micro and line

input, connected on the rear of the mixer. When you connect a micro phone to the “micro4” input, switch the selector to “mic4”. The phono and line source can’t be connected at the same time! When you connect a turntable, put the selector to “phono2”. When you connect a source with line level output (like a CD-player), switch the selector to “CD2”. Attention: The sound becomes very distorted when you connect a CD-player and set the switch to “phono2”, be careful!

15. Input selector channel3: You can choose between a phono, micro and line

input, connected on the rear of the mixer. When you connect a micro phone to the “micro3” input, switch the selector to “mic3”. The phono and line source can’t be connected at the same time! When you connect a turntable, put the selector to “phono1”. When you connect a source with line level output (like a CD-player), switch the selector to “CD1”. Attention: The sound becomes very distorted when you connect a CD-player and set the switch to “phono1”, be careful!

16. Input selector channel2: You can choose between a micro or line input,

connected on the rear of the mixer. When you connect a micro phone to the “micro2” input, switch the selector to “mic2”. When you connect a source with line level output (like a CD-player) to the “line1” input, switch the selector to “line1”.

17. Input connector DJ Micro: The DJ micro can only be connected to the XLR

input on the front plate. This input is balanced but accepts any kind of microphone equipped with an XLR connector. If your micro only has a jack connector, you can use a special adapter such as the JB Systems “5-3381”.

18. Talkover switch: Use this switch to mute the music channels (2 to 5) while you

are talking through the DJ microphone. You can choose to mute the music by 12dB or 18dB.

19. Channel faders: Used to set the level of each channel separately.

20. Crossfader: With this fader you can mix over between channels 3 and 4. The

crossfader only works when you move the faders (19) of both channels to the desired level!
