IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

CAUTION

The lightning flash with arrowhead symbol within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the use to
the presence of un-insulated “dangerous voltage” within the product’s enclosure that may be of
sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons.

The exclamation point within the equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of
important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the
appliance.

To prevent electric shock, do not use this polarized plug with an extension cord, receptacle or other outlet unless

the blades can be fully inserted to prevent blade exposure.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove
the cover (or back). No user-serviceable parts inside. Refer
servicing to qualified service personnel.

3) Channel EQ - Adjusts the high, mid and low
frequency levels of the input channels for good
sound.

4) Channel Gain – Adjusts the pre-fader volume for
cleaner sound.

5) Replaceable Crossfader - Achieves clean fades
between the two input channels. "Hard left" selects
Channel 1. "Hard right" selects Channel 2. With the
crossfader centered, both channels are live. Use
the crossfader for fast and seamless fades from
one channel to the other.

6) Mic Input Gain – Adjusts microphone input level.

7) Mic Input – Insert your Microphone with ¼” plug here.

8) Headphone Output – Insert in the ¼” plug for your
headphones here.

audio to your headphones. Listen here before bringing
up channel faders or moving the crossfader.

10) Headphone Level – Adjusts cue volume.

11) Master Level - Controls the overall output level.

12) Crossfader Curve – The CUT setting allows the use of the
crossfader for quick cut in and out when scratching and
mixing. The FADE setting is used for longer segues,

When used with a compatible CD player, you can use
the crossfader to start and stop the CD player with the

this connection when using standard turntables with
ground cable. (Some turntables like the T.80 / T.120 do
not require grounding wire)

17) Phono Inputs – Plug your turntables in here. When these
connectors are used, your signal is fed directly to the
high-quality RIAA phono pre-amplifiers. Use this posit ion
only for turntables. Line level sources will overload
sensitive phono pre-amps and will cause distortion.

18) Line Inputs - Unbalanced RCA jacks for connecting
stereo audio from line level sources such as CD players,
HiFi VCRs, cassette decks, DAT machines, laser discs,
tuners, even synthesizers or other mixing consoles.

NOTE: Plug mono audio sources into both Left and
Right inputs using a "Y" cable connector.
