REAR PANEL FEATURES

1. AC IN – Use the included power adapter to

connect the mixer to a power outlet. While the power is switched off, plug the power supply into the mixer first, then plug the power supply into a power outlet.

Note: The mixer is designed to work with the included power supply only. Using an incompatible power supply could result in damage to the unit.

2. POWER SWITCH – Turns the mixer on and

off. Turn on the mixer after all input devices have been connected and before you turn on amplifiers. Turn off amplifiers before you turn off the mixer.

3. MASTER OUTPUT (RCA) – Use standard RCA cables to connect this output to a speaker or amplifier system. The

level of this output is controlled by the MASTER knob on the top panel.

4. LINE INPUTS (RCA) – Connect line-level devices, such as CD players, samplers or audio interfaces, to these inputs.

5. PHONO INPUTS (RCA) – Connect phono-level devices, such as turntables, to these inputs.

6. GROUNDING TERMINAL – If you are using phono-level turntables with a grounding wire, connect the grounding wire to

these terminals. If you experience a low “hum” or “buzz”, this could mean that your turntables are not grounded.

Note: Some turntables have a grounding wire built into the RCA connection and, therefore, nothing needs to be connected to the grounding terminal.

7. LINE | PHONO SWITCH – Flip this switch to select between the PHONO INPUT or LINE INPUT for each channel.

8. USB – These USB connections send and receive audio from a connected computer. The USB 1 jack can receive audio

and send it to the mixer’s Channel 1. The USB 2 jack can receive audio and send it to the mixer’s Channel 2. They can also function as outputs, sending audio to your computer. For more information, refer to the USB OPERATION section.

USB OPERATION

The M1USB is equipped with two USB ports which allow you to play content from your computer through the mixer, or record audio from the mixer directly into your favorite software application. The USB interface on your mixer works with your computer just like a standard USB sound card. In addition, the USB interface is class-compliant, so there are no special drivers or software to install; simply connect a USB cable from either or both USB ports to your computer and you are ready to go!

WINDOWS CONFIGURATION

1. Turn on your computer and the M1USB.

2. Use a USB cable to connect one (or both) ports of the M1USB to your computer.

3. Windows will immediately recognize the mixer as a “USB Audio Device” or “USB Audio CODEC” and will automatically install any required system components.

To change system audio preferences in Windows, you will need to access the Sounds and Audio Devices properties, located in the

Control Panel. To access audio device settings, click on the Audio tab.

The first time you connect the M1USB to your computer, the mixer will be automatically assigned as the Default (or “Preferred”) Device for sound playback on your computer. All of your computer’s sounds will be sent to the mixer channel indicated above the USB connection.

Note: If you have connected both USB ports to your computer, the ports will be numbered in the order they were connected. For example, if you connected USB A before USB B, USB A will appear as “USB Audio CODEC” and USB B will appear as “USB Audio CODEC (2)”.

 To send audio from your computer into the M1USB, select

“USB Audio CODEC” in the Sound Playback field. This allows you to play audio from your computer into one of either of the mixer channels, depending on which USB port is used to make the connection.

 To send audio from the M1USB to your computer, select

“USB Audio CODEC” in the Sound Recording field. This allows you to record your mix into your computer.

Note: If your sound playback or recording application does not have its own audio input and output settings (for example, Windows Sound Recorder, Windows Media Player or Apple iTunes), it will use the devices set in Sounds and Audio Devices. Please note that these settings are loaded upon application startup, so if you change device settings while the application is open, you will need to restart your application for the settings to take effect.

Tip: To prevent Windows from playing system sounds (beeps and bleeps) through the M1USB, we highly recommend disabling these by clicking on the Sounds tab and selecting No Sounds from the pull-down menu.

MAC CONFIGURATION

1. Turn on your computer and the M1USB.

2. Use a USB cable to connect one (or both) ports of the M1USB to your computer.

3. Windows will immediately recognize the mixer as a “USB Audio Device” or “USB Audio CODEC”.

To change system audio preferences on a Mac, you will need to access the Audio MIDI Setup preferences located in Applications



Utilities.

 To send audio from your computer into the M1USB, select “USB Audio CODEC” in the Default Output field.

This allows you to play audio from your computer into one of either of the mixer channels, depending on which USB port is used to make the connection.

 To send audio from the M1USB to your computer, select “USB Audio CODEC” in the Default Input field. This

allows you to record your mix into your computer.

Tip: We recommend leaving the System Output field set to Built-in Output. This ensures that system sounds (beeps and bleeps) will not sound through the mixer.

Note: If your sound playback or recording application does not have its own audio input and output settings (for example, Apple iTunes), it will use the devices set in Audio MIDI Setup. Please note that these settings are loaded upon application startup, so if you change device settings while the application is open, you will need to restart your application for the settings to take effect.

USING BOTH USB PORTS SIMULTANEOUSLY

Since the M1USB has 2 USB ports, you can attach a different computer to each USB jack or you can connect both jacks to a single computer. Each USB jack on the mixer will appear as a separate USB audio device to your computer. You can play two audio files simultaneously from one computer and send both of those audio streams to separate channels of your mixer by using two USB cables.

If you do this, we suggest using one of the many commercially available software programs that support multiple sound cards.

However, if you don’t have software like that, you can use two separate software media players instead. To do this you need to start the first media player, then change the Preferred Audio Device to the second USB port, then start your second media player.

Note: Some applications (like Windows Media Player) will not allow you to have multiple instances running simultaneously. When you try to open a second file, the first one will stop playing and the second file will be loaded. To get around this, you can use different players to play the second file. For example, use Windows Media Player to play channel 1, and Musicmatch Juke Box player for channel 2.

Note: Please keep in mind that not all media players will “remember” what sound card they were using at the time of launch.
