EXPANSION PORTS: Male and Female DB25 par allel port jacks.
The output Expansion jack is female and is located on the right side of the top
panel. The input Expansion jack is male and is on the left side of the top panel.
FRONT PANEL
NOTE: All input signals described below are connected to either the HM60 or
HM57. Ref er to that unit’s owners manual for proper input connection.
EFFECTS RETURN: Adjusts the le v el of stereo signal returning from a signal
processor connected to an HM60.
MIX LEVELS;1 - 4 and Main: Adjust the le vel of input signal from the corresponding input.
MASTER LEVEL: Adjusts the amount of mix ed signal being sent to the Mix
Output jacks.
EQUALIZER: These slider controls adjust the level of the indicated frequency. For
example, the 64 slider boosts or cuts the 64 Hertz component of the output signal
by + or - 12 dB. The lo w er frequencies; 64 to 250 correspond to bass frequencies,
the 500 to 2K sliders correspond to mid frequencies, and the 4K to 8K sliders
adjust the high or treble frequencies.
PWR: Indicates that the HM60 is connected to a pow er source and is on.
BOTT OM PANEL

OPERA TING THE HM59
After proper connections are made, begin sending signals to the HM60 or HM57,
whichever is connected to the signal sources and y our HM59.
• Set the HM59 Master Level control at approximately 12 O’clock. Carefully bring
up the 1-4 and Main Mix Levels until a desired mix is achieved.
• Adjust the Equalizer as needed. The 64, 125, and 250 Hz sliders control the
lower or bass frequencies, the 500, 1K, and 2K sliders adjust the middle frequencies, the 4K, 8K, and 16K sliders vary the high or treble frequencies.
• The A GC compressor keeps transient signals like pops or feedback under
control, so they won’t damage your hearing. It also slightly brings up low-level
signals.
NOTE: Much of the signal content may not be compressed, you ma y not
notice any effect. Only very high level or lo w le vel signals are effected.
• If using external effects processors, make sure the y are properly connected to
the HM60, and the levels are set properly. Refer to the HM60 owners man ual, as
well as the operating manual of the effects processor.
If you hav e an eff ects processor connected to the HM60 control unit, the HM59
Effects Return adjusts the level of the eff ected signals to y our headphone mix.
Note that the Effects Sends 1 - 4 and MAIN on the HM60 determine the mix of
signals sent to the effects processor . The HM59 FX Return control will only adjust
the level of that mix. In other words, the signals present at the Right and Left
Effects Return jacks on the HM60 will be the signals adjusted by the FX Return
control on the HM59.
