WARNING: The headphone amp is loud, and
can cause permanent ear damage. Even
intermediate levels may be painfully loud with
some earphones. BE CAREFUL! Always turn the phones
level control [19] all the way down before connecting
headphones or pressing a solo switch, or doing anything
new that may affect the headphone volume. Then turn it
up slowly as you listen carefully.
19. LEVEL
This knob controls the level of the signal going to your
stereo headphones.
Make sure this is fully down whenever you are
making connections in your system, or putting
on the headphones, or before you press any
solo switch [41]. Bring up the level slowly and carefully
to protect your hearing.
20. FX FOOTSWITCH CONNECTOR
This is where you connect a footswitch. (Any two-but-
ton on/off footswitch will do). This allows you to easily
mute or un-mute the two internal effect processors
independently, while stamping your foot and looking
like you were mad about something.
The output is wired so the tip affects FX1, and the
ring affects FX2.
If the internal effects have already been muted with
the FX mute switches [64] then the footswitch has no
effect. It cannot un-mute or mute it.
The footswitch only affects the internal FX. It has no
effect on the output-to and input-from external effects
processors.

21. BNC LAMP CONNECTION
Located in the top right corner of the mixer, this
12V socket will drive any standard BNC-type lamp, for
example, a Littlite® #12G or #12G-HI (high-intensity).
It will cast a light in the dark, so you can work your
audio magic like an ancient wizard. It will also attract
all the mosquitoes, moths, and other hungry fl ying crit-
ters within a one mile radius. Have fun with that.
22. LUNCH-TIME DECOUPLER
Not available on Earth models, this control actually
slows down time, especially lunchtimes. Use this wisely,
and only engage it after receiving your food and bever-
ages, or you may be in for a long wait.
Do not engage during drum solos or scats.
