The unit has three LED displays Left output, Right output

output level of the mixer and the PFL section shows the
combined level of the headphone output.
t MICROPHONE GAIN CONTROLS
Each of the microphone channels has a rotary gain
control. The gain control adjusts the input level allowing
the user to reduce or increase the sound level. NOTE:

y MICROPHONE TONE CONTROLS
The microphone channels have a shared Bass, Mid and
Top controls. The master Output also has three band tone
controls. NOTE: Care should be taken not to distort the
output signal using these controls.
u KAM KILL CUT
With so many different genres of music the design team
at KAM felt that all our mixers should have a more than
adequate control over the tone or eq of each audio
channel. The Kill Cut feature is a specially designed tone
level controls. Kam Kill Cut will give you greater control
when cutting and lifting the tone controls.
i CHANNEL SELECTORS
These are used to switch between Line input and Phono
input on each channel.
o CHANNEL LEVEL FADERS
These are used to adjust the output level for each
channel. NOTE: care should be taken not to produce
distortion with these controls as this could result in
damage to both the unit and any external equipment
connected.
1) PFL ASSIGN
Each channel has a PFL assign switch. This should be
activated when you wish to monitor that channel through
the headphone circuit.
1! CUE ASSIGN CONTROL KNOB
This Controls which channel is monitored in the
headphones. When the rotary control is fully anticlockwise the PFL circuit is monitored, when the rotary
knob is fully clockwise the master output or PGM is
monitored.
1@ PHONES LEVEL
This controls the output volume of the headphones. Care
should be taken not to have this set to high as it could
result in damage to both the hearing of the user and the
headphones. The channel to be monitored is selected via
the cue assign control knob.
1# MICROPHONE CONTROLS
The two DJ/Mc or Vocalist microphones channels each
have their own dedicated gain control , microphone on air
toggle switch and autotalk override. NOTE: To achieve the
best results from the 2 microphone channels check out
our range of Kam Mics.
1$ MICROPHONE AUTOTALK
The Two toggle switches at the base of the microphone
section have three positions OFF/AUTOTALK/ON. The OFF
position the mic channel is off. In the on position the
channel is on, without autotalk over. In the Autotalk
Position the music level reduces while the microphone is
in use and then automatically returns the music to normal
level once the microphone is not in use.
1% AUTO START FEATURE
Each of the four music channels has an auto start micro
switch on the fader. The mixer can be connected to a
compatible music source (KAM CD Players or CD player
with a +/- 5V pulse) via the mini jacks on the rear of the
mixer. When the fader is lifted the music source will begin
to play. When the fader is closed the music source will
pause. For further information

1^ VOLTAGE SELECTOR
The KSP1500 is duel voltage (110 / 230V). Please
ensure the correct voltage is selected for your country.
Failure to set the correct voltage will cause damage to
the unit.
1& POWER
The Power On LED will show the current status (lit = on).
Ensure the mixer is turned off when connecting external
equipment.
1* KAM PROFADE CROSSFADER
This allows the user to mix smoothly between both music
channels selected on the crossfader assign.
1( CROSSFADE ASSIGN
To the left and right of the crossfader is a crossfade
assign knob, which has an off position and selections 1-4.
This control is designed to assign the crossfade position
to the appropriate channel.
2) REPLACEABLE PROFADE CROSSFADER (not shown)
You are probably already aware that this mixer comes
with a FREE EXTRA KAM ProFADE crossfader.
Crossfaders are generally not guaranteed and are a
chargeable item. The Team at KAM think that you should
have a longer time to enjoy mixing and preparing to be a
top class artist, so with two faders in the box, you will
have twice as much time to enjoy this product and
compared to other brands longer before you need to
change any parts.
