1. Introduction
______________________________________________________
1.1 Overview
System Mix is a dual stereo line level audio mixer designed specifically for electric guitar
systems. With System Mix, you can combine the line level outputs of your rack effects with the
pure tone of your amp or preamp. This results in lower noise and better tone.
System Mix can be used in three different ways:
• A one- or two-stage parallel effects system
• Two independent 3-channel stereo mixers
• A 5-channel stereo mixer
Its flexibility and compact size also make it ideal for small keyboard systems and anywhere a
small mixer is needed.

2. Operation
________________________________________________________
2.1 Front Panel
1. Power LED: Lights when power is supplied to System Mix.
2. MIX LEVEL CONTROLS: Stereo output volume for MIX 1 and MIX 2. Unity gain is set
with the knob at 12 o'clock.
2.2 Rear Panel
[Note: All of the 1/4 inch jacks on the rear panel are for mono plugs. The top row is for the Left
channel of your stereo signal and the bottom is for the Right. Any mono signals should be
plugged into the Left inputs (except for Mix 2 In 1). They will automatically feed both the Left
and Right channels.]
1. POWER: Requires 9 VAC 600 mA.
2. Passive Split: These outputs carry the same signals coming in the "Mix 1 In 1" inputs.
Enables you to feed these signals somewhere else without having to use Y-cables.
3. Mix 1 Inputs: Three stereo line level inputs to Mix 1.
4. Mix 1 Out: Two identical sets of Left and Right line level outputs from Mix 1.
5. Mix 2 Inputs: Three stereo, line level inputs to Mix 2.
Note: Mix 2 In 1 controls the internal connection (normal) from Mix 1 to Mix 2. If nothing is
plugged in to these inputs, the outputs from Mix 1 feed through to Mix 2. If something is
plugged in to these inputs, the internal Mix 1/Mix 2 connection is broken.
6. Mix 2 Out: Left and Right line level outputs from Mix 2.
