DM 1685
DJ MIC SECTION
The DM1685 has an extremely flexible DJ Mic
channel. The Talkover function reduces the level of
the music while leaving the DJ Mic at normal volume.
8. Neutrik™ “Combo” connector allows connection of
either a 1/4” jack or an XLR jack. This is ideal for
connecting an XLR gooseneck directly into the mixer.
9. Treble and Bass Controls fine tune the tone of
your voice on both mics through the sound system. The
controls are detented for setting tone "flat". For best
results, use a dynamic cardioid microphone.
10. The DJ Mic 1 Fader controls the DJ Mic volume
for the Neutrik™ “Combo” connector.
11. The Mic 2 Fader controls the Mic volume for the
1/4” connector on the rear of the mixer.
12.Mic Off/On/Talkover Switch.
Off turns off Mic 1
On turns on Mic 1
Talkover turns down the input level of your music
sources from Channels 1-4.
Talkover is very useful for making announcements
without adjusting any levels.
Try using this feature for audience participation
when you want the music to temporarily cease
and the audience to be heard - “YEAH!”
MASTER/BOOTH OUTPUT SECTION
13. The Stereo Master Fader controls the overall
output level.
14. Stereo/Mono toggle adjusts the Master
output for the operation selected.
15. The Zone Level controls speaker volume for a
remote zone or booth monitors. If you do not use
booth monitors the output can feed a tape deck,
another amplifier, another mixer or a satellite speaker
system. Note: This can also be used to supply line
level audio to a lighting controller or to lights that are
sound activated.
CONTRACTOR'S NOTE: Booth Level provides
zone control in installations where there are two
separate rooms, or a bar and dance floor, for example.
Remote zone volume should be controlled from the
DM1685.
16. Stereo Auto Peak Hold Level Indicator.
This fast, accurate stereo meter tracks the output
level. The red LEDs for +3dB, +5dB and +8dB hold
program peaks for a second or two. With peak
metering, it's OK to be "in the red" as long as +5dB or
+8dB aren't constantly lit. Set the crossover, equalizer
and power amp inputs to avoid distortion at each step
in the audio chain. Proper attention to the peak meter
results in the punchiest possible sound without
audible distortion.
