INTRODUCTION
Thank you! There are a lot of makes and
models out there, all competing for your
bucks … but you have voted with your wallet
for the folks in Woodinville who specialize in
American-made mixers.
There are only two other things we ask:
First, now that you’ve got a MicroSeries
1202, find out how to get the most from it.
That’s where this manual comes in.
• If this is your first pro mixer, flip through
the whole book: you’ll find it full of actual
from-the-streets engineering tips, as well
as operation and installation instructions.
• If you’re an experienced, big-bucks
engineer with lots of fader hours under
your fingertips, at least read “Part 1: All
the Holes and Knobs.” (We’ve found that
experienced engineers usually read
manuals cover-to-cover anyway so that
they can keep getting the big bucks.)
Fast-Track “CAN’T WAIT!” tips
for people who ignore manuals
A. To adjust input levels:
1. Set TRIM fully counterclockwise.
2. Set GAIN to unity (twelve o’clock).
3. Push in the INPUT CH. METERING switch.
4. Feed a normal signal into a selected input.
5. Adjust that input’s TRIM control so that
the display on the left LED strip stays
around 0, and never goes higher than +10.
6. Repeat for each of Channels 1–4.
B. Connecting effects
Read the section starting on page 11 for
full information on connecting digital delays,
reverbs, etc. via AUX SENDS and STEREO
AUX RETURNS. This can get pretty compli-
cated quickly.
Don’t cream your monitor speakers
Always turn the master gain and head-
phone level controls down before making
connections to and from your MS 1202.
