decks) connections. Channels 2&3 have additional RCA type
line level inputs. Channel 1 has an additional 1/4" jack mic
input. Channel 4 features two dedicated line level inputs.
w GROUND POST Use this to attach the ground wires from your
turntables.
e OUTPUTS The unit has two outputs on the rear 1 x Master
(unbalanced), 1 x Record (unbalanced). Connect the Master
output to your amplifier. To record your performances connect
the record output to the line input of your tape deck or MD.
The KSP200 does not have a dedicated ‘booth’ output, however
the Effect Send Connection and Control can be used for this
purpose.
r EFFECT SEND CONNECTION Use this line level Phono socket to
send sound to an external effects processor. Connect a cable
from this socket to the line input of your effects processor.
t EFFECT RETURN CONNECTION Use this line level RCA Phono
socket to receive sound from an external effects processor.
Connect a cable from this socket to the line output of your
effects processor.
y CHANNEL SELECTORS These are used to switch between Line
input and Phono input on each channel.
u GAIN CONTROLS Each music channel has a rotary gain
control. The Gain control adjusts the input level allowing the
user to reduce or increase the sound level to compensate for
quiet recordings.
i TONE CONTROLS Each channel has unique four band tone
controls, which can be used to cut and boost specific
frequencies. The bass control alters the level of lower Bass
frequencies, Mid 2 alters lower mid and higher Bass
frequencies, Mid 1 alters higher Mid frequencies and the Top
alters high frequencies. Turning the control clockwise boosts
the frequency. Turning the Tone controls fully anti-clockwise
utilizes the KAM KILL CUT feature which completely removes
the frequency.
o CUE SELECT BUTTON Pressing this button routes the
individual channel to the PFL/Headphone Cue system.
1) EFFECT SEND BUTTON Pressing this button routes the
individual channel to the external Effects Send/Return system.
1! CHANNEL LEVEL FADERS These are used to adjust the output
level for each channel.
1@ CHANNEL FADER CURVE SWITCHES This switch adjusts the
distance that the channel fader needs to travel before the
channel reaches full volume. The switch has three positions;
LONG means that the entire length of the fader is used, MED
means that half of the fader length is used and SHORT means
only a small distance needs to be traveled. SHORT and MED
settings are useful for some Scratch mixing techniques, MED
and LONG settings are suited to Beatmixing techniques.
1# PUNCH BUTTONS These buttons when pressed open the
channel and allow sound to pass to the master output,
regardless of the position of the crossfader. Designed for
transform scratching type effects.
1$ KAM PROFADE CROSSFADER This allows the user to mix
smoothly between both music channels. You are able to adjust
the curve of the crossfader with the crossfader curve select
switch.
1% CROSSFADER ASSIGN CONTROLS (Front of mixer) These
controls determine which channel is currently assigned to
either side of the Crossfader.
1^ MICROPHONE INPUT Use this socket to connect an MC/DJ
microphone. It will accept either an XLR or 1/4" Jack type
connector. NOTE: To maximize the performance of this
microphone channel check out the range of Mixer Matched
KAM Microphones.
1& VU METER TYPE LEVEL DISPLAYS The unit has two VU METER
TYPE LED level displays. They show the Left and Right levels of
the Master Output of the mixer.
1* CHANNEL LEVEL METERS Each channel has it’s own Pre Fade
Level Meter which always shows the Level of the incoming
signal after the channel gain control but before the channel
fader.
1( POWER LED The Power On LED will show the current status
(lit = on). Ensure the mixer is turned off when connecting
external equipment.
2) EFFECT SEND LEVEL CONTROL Use this control to set the level
of the signal sent to an external effects processor via the rear
panel effect Send connection. Choosing which channel(s) are
sent for external processing is done via the individual channel
Effect Send button.
2! EFFECT RETURN LEVEL CONTROL Use this control to set the
level of the signal returning from an external effects processor
(via the rear panel Effect Return socket). The sound is fed from
here directly to the Master Output Level Fader so this control
is used to set the balance between the amount of ‘wet’
(effected) sound and ‘dry’ (uneffected) sound.
2@ SPLIT / PFL SWITCH This switch controls the way in which
the monitoring circuit works. In the PFL position any individual
channel whose ‘Cue’ button is depressed plays back in stereo
through both headphones. In the SPLIT position what you hear
in the headphones is determined by the Cue Select Fader.
2# CUE SELECT FADER This Controls what is monitored in the
headphones when the SPLIT/PFL button is in the SPLIT
position. With the cue select fader to the left you should hear
the output from any channel whose Cue select button is
depressed in both headphones and with the cue select fader to
the right you should hear the Master Output in both
headphones. With the cue select fader in the centre you should
hear a mix of both the PFL and the Master Output (PGM
stands for Program and means the signal arriving at the
Master Output).
2$ CUE LEVEL This controls the output volume of the
headphones.
2% MASTER OUTPUT FADER This controls the overall output from
the mixer, via the master output to the PA System.
2^ VOLTAGE SELECTOR The KSP200 is dual voltage (110 / 230).
Please ensure the correct voltage is selected for your country.
Failure to set the correct voltage will cause damage to the
unit.
2& REPLACEABLE PROFADE CROSSFADER (not shown) You are
probably already aware that this mixer comes with a FREE
EXTRA KAM ProFADE crossfader. Crossfaders get more use
than any other part of a mixer so they are always the first
thing to wear out. They are also generally not guaranteed and
are a chargeable item. The Team at KAM think you deserve
more time to enjoy mixing and preparing to be a top class
artist before you need to reach in to your pocket to pay for a
replacement. So with two faders in the box, compared to other
brands you will have twice as much time to enjoy this product.

DON’T BLOW IT!
• Always ensure that the mixer is turned off when making
connections.
• Care should always be taken to ensure that the correct
connections are made.
• Connecting a CD player to the Phono input or a turntable to
the Line input can cause damage to the unit.
• When connecting a turntable to the Phono input always use
the signal earth cable from the turntable to the ground
point on the mixer.
• Always use shielded signal cables to reduce hum and
background noise.
• Care should be taken that ALL input and output signal
levels are not excessive. Excessive signals can cause
damage to your Kam mixer, connected equipment and
your ears!
• When using the KSP200’s powerful Tone Controls,
particular care should be taken to ensure that signal levels
do not become excessive.
• For optimum audio quality and listening pleasure signals
should peak at around zero dB on PFL and output
level meters.
