Notes on Mixing
If you set
CROSS FADER
to
A
to play the
channel selected by
ASSIGN A
, then you
must set
CUE ASSIGN
to
CH 1
to monitor
CH 1
, to
CH 2
to monitor
CH 2
, to
CH 3
to
monitor
CH 3
, and to
CH 4
to monitor
CH
4
. The same applies when you set
CROSS FADER
to
B
.
To mix any two inputs selected by the
ASSIGN
switches, set each
ASSIGN
switch to the desired channel. Then use
CROSS FADER
to mix the two.
Do not slide
CROSS FADER
to the center
if you want to
monitor
one channel while
the other is playing. Otherwise, the
sound from the channel you monitor will
also be heard through your sound sys-
tem. Instead, slide
CROSS FADER
to the
channel you are not monitoring. For
example, to monitor channel 1 (selected
by
ASSIGN A
) while channel 2 (selected
by
ASSIGN
B
) is playing, slide
CROSS
FADER
to
B
.
Use
CUE LEVEL
to listen to the input
controlled by the
CUE ASSIGN
switch
and what is playing on the currently
selected output device.
USING THE SPECIAL
CONTROLS
Using the Tone Controls
Your mixer has a set of tone controls for
each microphone and for channels 1–4. You
can tailor the high, middle, and low frequen-
cy sounds for each.
For normal sound, leave
BASS
,
MID
, and
HIGH
set to
0
.
Rotate
HIGH
,
MID
or
BASS
toward
+10
to in-
crease, or toward
–10
respectively to de-
crease the high, middle, and low frequency
sounds.
Using Gain
Since the input levels of each sound source
are different, the
GAIN
controls let you fine
tune each selected input's volume. Rotate
the desired
GAIN
control toward
MAX
to in-
crease the volume and toward
MIN
to reduce
it.
