HINT: BOOTH OUTPUT IS USED BY SOME DJS TO RUN MONITOR SPEAKERS IN THE DJ
BOOTH. IT IS ALSO USED AS A SECOND ZONE OR AMP OUTPUT.
NOTE: REC OUTPUT HAS NO LEVEL CONTROL. LEVEL IS CONTROLLED WITH THE
CHANNEL SLIDES OF THE SELECTED CHANNEL(S). TONE IS CONTROLLED BY THE
EQUALIZERS.
10.TALKOVER: The purpose of the talkover is to allow the program playing
to be muted so that the MIC may be heard above the music. The MIC/
TALKOVER SWITCH (42) controls MIC 1 and MIC 2 and has 3 settings:
• When MIC/TALKOVER (42) is in the BOTTOM position, MIC 1, MIC 2
and TALKOVER are all OFF.
• When MIC/TALKOVER (42) is in the CENTER position, MIC 1 and MIC 2
are ON. MIC INDICATOR (43) glows when TALKOVER is OFF.
• When MIC/TALKOVER SWITCH (42) is in the TOP position, MIC 1, MIC 2
and TALKOVER are ON and the volume of all sources except MIC inputs
is lowered by 16 dB.
11.TREBLE (46) and BASS (47) controls allow you to adjust the tone of MIC
1 and MIC 2. MIC 1 LEVEL (44) controls the level of MIC 1 while MIC 2
LEVEL (45) controls the level of MIC 2.
12.CUE: By connecting a set of headphones to the HEADPHONE (22) jack,
you can monitor any or all channels. Press CUE ASSIGN (48) buttons for
Channels 1 through 4 and select the Channel(s) to be monitored. The
respective LED indicators will glow. Use the CUE LEVEL (49) control to
adjust the cue volume without changing the overall mix. By moving the
CUE PGM PAN (50) control to the LEFT you will be able to monitor the
assigned cue signal. Moving the control to the RIGHT allows you to
monitor PGM (program) output.
13.DISPLAY: The DISPLAY (51) indicates the MASTER output of the left and
right levels.
PMX-1800 ONLY:
1. ECHO SECTION: Echo can be applied by pressing the ECHO (52) button
(the LED will light). You can adjust the LEVEL (53), REPEAT (54) and
DELAY (55) parameters of the echo by using the ECHO controls. To turn
the echo off, push the ECHO (52) button again (the LED will turn off).
2. SOUND EFFECTS SECTION: Six different sound effects (UFO, TRON
BLAST, SIREN, GAS, MACHINE GUN & EMERGENCY) may be added
to your mix by depressing the SOUND EFFECTS CONTROL BUTTONS
(56). The volume of the effects can be adjusted using the EFFECTS
LEVEL CONTROL (57). The pitch of the effects can be increased or
decreased using the EFFECTS SPEED CONTROL (58).
PMX-2400 ONLY:
SAMPLER OPERATION:
GENERAL INFORMATION: The PMX-2400’s Sampler uses Dynamic
RAM memory and a 12 bit microprocessor controller. This full bandwidth
results in true sound reproduction.
MEMORY INFORMATION: The PMX-2400 is equipped with five
MEMORY BANKS (52). The two banks marked 2 & 2 are two seconds in
length, the two banks marked 4 & 4 are four seconds in length and the
bank marked 12 is twelve seconds in length. These banks are separate
and CAN NOT be linked. You can store a different sample in each bank,
but they must be recorded individually and must be played one at a time.
SAMPLE RECORDING:
1. Put the MODE SELECTOR (53) switch into the WRITE position.
2. Select the sample source by pressing the appropriate CUE/SAMPLE (48)
assign button(s).
3. Select the “record to” memory bank by pressing the proper MEMORY
BANK (52) button.
4. The PMX-2400 comes equipped with a sampler PITCH (54) control. To
get a “perfect” sample, set the control to its center position and record
the sample. Raising or lowering the control during playback raises or
lowers the pitch of the sample. The center position retains the “normal” pitch.
HINT: YOU CAN RECORD A SAMPLE WITH THE PITCH CONTROL IN ANY POSITION.
WHATEVER THAT POSITION IS WILL BECOME NORMAL SOUND. IF YOU START TO
RECORD A SAMPLE WITH THE PITCH CONTROL SET AT “MINIMUM” THAT WILL BECOME
YOUR NORMAL PITCH. BY INCREASING THE PITCH TO “MAXIMUM” DURING PLAYBACK,
THE PITCH EFFECT WILL DOUBLE IN SPEED. RECORDING AT “MAXIMUM” AND
LOWERING TO “MINIMUM” DURING PLAYBACK WILL DO EXACTLY THE OPPOSITE.
5. Tapping the START/STOP (55) button begins the sampling process (the
SAMPLER INDICATOR will “glow” RED). Tapping the START/STOP
(55) button a second time ends the sample (the SAMPLER INDICATOR
will turn off). If you do not tap the START/STOP (55) button a second
time, the sampling process stops automatically after 2, 4 or 12 seconds
depending on which MEMORY BANK (52) was selected.
SAMPLE PLAYBACK:
1. Set the MODE SELECTOR (53) switch to SINGLE or REPEAT.
2. Select the desired memory bank by pressing the proper MEMORY BANK
(52) button.
3. Tapping the START/STOP (55) button with the MODE SELECTOR (53)
switch in the SINGLE position causes sampler to play back one time (the
SAMPLER INDICATOR will “glow” GREEN). Each push of the START/
STOP (55) button restarts the sample from the beginning. Rapid pressing
of the START/STOP (55) button will cause a stuttering effect. Once the
sample has started playback and the START/STOP (55) button is not
pushed a second time, the sample will play to the end and stop.
4. Tapping the START/STOP (55) button with the MODE SELECTOR (53)
switch in the REPEAT position causes the sample to play continuously.
The START/STOP (55) button acts an ON/OFF switch. The first push
starts the sample, the second push stops it. The SAMPLER LEVEL (56)
controls the level of the sample. Press the SAMPLER CUE (57) to hear
the sample that is being CUED up.
ROBO PLAY:
1. With the ROBO PLAY (58) button OFF and the MODE SELECTOR (53)
switch in either the SINGLE or REPEAT mode, pressing the START/
STOP (55) button will cause the sample to play along with the selected
source.
2. When the ROBO PLAY (58) button is in the ON position starting the
sampler mutes the selected source. When the sample ends, the source
automatically turns back on.
BATTERY BACKUP:
BATTERY BACKUP: The PMX-2400 is equipped with battery backup to
retain samples. To activate this feature, a 9 volt battery (not included)
should be connected to the BATTERY HOLDER (59) located on the rear
panel. This enables the storage of samples in memory. When the unit is
unplugged, the battery backup retains the samples for future use.
NOTE: IF THE UNIT IS UNPLUGGED WITH NO BATTERY ATTACHED, ALL SAMPLES WILL BE
LOST.
LOW BATTERY INDICATOR: A low battery indicator is included with the
PMX-2400. When changing the battery, make sure the unit is plugged in
and the power is ON. Failure to adhere to this will result in lost memory
and “vanished” samples. The low battery indicator is ON when the
selected memory bank LED blinks. The LED blinks a warning if no battery
is connected to the unit.
