Important Safety Instructions
Pro Mixer DX20001. USB
Highly accurate main and PFL 1.1
peak—reading bargraph meters
The main output level is constantly monitored by a pair of
highly accurate main bargraph meters [ 38] . In addition, all
channels have PFL (Pre-Fader-Listen) [ 13] . This means that
you can see (on a separate PFL bargraph meter [ 39] ) and
hear (on your headphones and/or monitors) the music you
are about to play without disturbing the mix—essential if
you want to come in at the same level and in time with the
music currently playing. All professional DJ’s strive to do this,
often overlapping two tracks, or slowly crossfading between
them. (These and other DJ mixing tricks will be explained
elsewhere in this manual.)
How will 1.2 you use your DX2000USB?
Your DX2000USB is a creative instrument. Learn to play
it well. If possible, experiment with it “off-line”—before
you use it in earnest in a club or studio. It offers you many
creative music mixing possibilities, with its ultra DJ-friendly
control surface. In addition, many special features have been
included to enhance the flexibility and ease of operation of
your mix. For example, the adjustable TALK OVER feature
can automatically and temporarily reduce the music level
while you are speaking. We have given particular attention
to metering your music with PFL offered on every channel.
In addition, all channels have signal present and clip LEDs
constantly monitoring input levels. You will also see virtually
every switch on your DX2000USB has an associated status
LED to let you know when it is engaged. Just another way in
which we try to make life easier for you, the DJ.
It is true that not all the features of the DX2000USB are
relevant to every application. For example, the TRACK START
[ 20] buttons buttons may be extraneous to the needs of
the vinyl DJ. Nonetheless, the superior quality of all of
the features of your DX2000USB means you will be well
equipped for any situation.
PSU (Power Supply Unit) 1.3
Please connect the IEC cable to the power socket [ 72] on the
