GETTING STARTED
1. Check the AC voltage before connecting the AC
plug. This product is equipped with a 3-wire
grounding type plug; this is a safety feature and
should not be defeated. Proper grounding is a
necessary practice to prevent electric shock
hazards to the operator, the microphone user,
and the musicians who are wired to this unit.
2. Before switching on the main power, keep all the
output fader all the way down to prevent damage
or excessive noise caused by bad level
adjustment, wrong wiring, defective cables, or bad
connection.
3. Always turn on the mixer before the power
amplifier; turn off the mixer after the amplifier.
4. Always turn off the unit before connecting and
disconnecting the unit from the power source.
5. Never use solvents to clean the unit. Clean with
a soft, dry cloth.

UNBALANCED & BALANCED
UNBALANCED & BALANCED
Most of the mistakes in audio installations are due
to incorrect and defective audio connections. In order to perfectly complete your installation. Please
pay special attention to the following section unless
you are already familiar with balanced/unbalanced
operations.
WHA T IS AN UNBALANCED LINE?
You can find this kind of system in most of home
audio-video systems. They have one conductor to
carry signal, and another conductor for a ground.
Normally, for lower level signals, the ground conductor shields the signal conductor.
WHA T IS A BALANCED LINE?
A balanced system transmits signal via 2 conductors plus one ground shielding conductor. The 2 signal conductors carry the same signal but out of phase.
For the balanced input stage, the amplifier will boost
the difference between the 2 signal conductors and
remove the identical part (known as common mode
signal) of the 2 signals . Because the real signal is
carried by the 2 conductors out of phase, so it is
perfectly carried to the input. At the same time, interference that occurs during transmission will be
identical (common mode). Because the signal conductors are run together, there is no chance they
can be different, and all the interference will be removed by the balanced input amplifier.
THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN TWO
OPERA TIONS:
Because of the common mode interference immunity of a balanced system, the ground conductor
doesn’t need to carry any electrical current, which
means the ground of the 2 connected units has an
identical ground level which is vital to an interference free system. Let’s look back at the unbalanced
system. The signal electrical current goes from the
signal conductor to the ground conductor. The ground
level of the 2 connected units are not identical. This
means the system is more easily inclined to noise
interference.
Running long cables is easy for a balanced system
but difficult for an unbalanced system. A Lower noise
level is a characteristic of a balanced system.
Because a balanced system needs 2 conductors for
the signal and 1 conductor for the ground, a minimum of 3 conductors are needed for wiring a balanced system. So a dedicated system separates the
ground and shields the 2 conductors.
Please read following section to properly wire for balanced and unbalanced systems:
THE CORRECT WIRING FOR BALANCED
OPERA TION:
Always connect the main power with 3 plugs. Make
sure the power system ground is working properly.
Don’t use a ground insulator plug adapter without properly connecting the ground individually. This is vital to
making a successful audio system connection.
Always connect the ground pin (PIN 1 in XLR) to the
source unit, and disconnect this pin on the destination unit. This connection topology is to avoid creating a grounding loop between the signal and power
ground. Utilize only the power ground, because it
always has a lower resistance and better distribution
than the signal ground.
If there is hum, a possible reason is a bad ground
connection for the system. In case you can not find
the fault, try connecting the ground pin of the input
connectors. If the hum is reduced or eliminated, check
your power grounding system. Special attention is
needed when you use the equipment racks with some
distance between them, and/or use a large quantity
of power amplifiers. Check the power ground between
the racks and power distribution strips with your electrical supply engineer. Make sure there is one, and
only one, proper ground point for the audio system
(or connected video system).

CHANNEL STRIP DESCRIPTION
CHANNEL STRIP DESCRIPRION
1 MIC/LINE MM1002(Ch1~2)/
MM1202 (Ch1~4)
The Microphone is via a combo connector,
which allows the connections of XLR or
1/4 “ type phone jack. Please use only
professional low impedance microphone
and properly wired cable for best result.
When the 1/4“ phone jack plug into the
combo connector, the connection can be
microphone or line level signal, we can
change the input trim for MIC or LINE by
using the LINE/MIC slide-switch to set
the different TRIM accordingly. However,
the phantom power is only available for
the XLR connection. Never turn on the
phantom power when you have line level
source connected to the XLR connector.
48V PHANTOM POWER
+48V Phantom Power is available on
each microphone input channel. All
faders should be all the way down
when switching on/off the phantom
power, in order to prevent excessive
noise to stage monitor speakers and
main speakers; Phantom powered
mics should not be plugged in with
the +48V switched on.
2 GAIN
This rotary knob adjusts the channel signal level. Too high, the signal will distort
as it overloads the channel. Too low, the
level of back hiss will be more noticeable
and there might be insufficient signal level
to the output of the mixer. Proper gain
setting allows the mixer to work in the
best operating level, adjusts the gain when
signal presents to the highest level without triggering the peak LED. That is the
most appropriate position.
This gain has two kinds of indication to
suit mic or line input, when you use mic
input, please read inside ring from
+10~+60 dB, if you use line input, please
read outside ring from -10~+40dB.
LINE / MIC SWITCH
When you use the channel for
microphone, either through XLR or Phone
plug, please switch to MIC. If you use
the channel for line level source, either
through XLR or Phone plug, please switch
to the LINE. This switch will set the appropriate gain range for the input signal.
INS
The INSERT is a break point in the input
channel signal path. It allows the signal
to be taken out from the mixer, through
an external equipment such as a
compressor, and then back to the mixer
to continue the final mix output.
3 EQUALIZER
HIGH
Turn right to boost high frequency, add-
ing crispness to cymbals, vocals and
electronic instruments. Turn left to cut this
frequency, reducing sibilance or hiss. The
control has a shelving response that gives
15dB of boost or cut at 12KHZ.
