Rolls MX124 Microphone User Manual


 
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for your purchase of the MX124 ProMix IV. This unit is designed and manufac-
tured to mix four microphones together and send their combined signals out stereo trans-
former-balanced XLR outputs, or front panel 1/4” and 1/8” stereo outputs. The individually
switchable phantom power and low-cut switches provide the final touches which make the
MX124 a valuable tool for any sound reinforcement, musical, recording, or install applica-
tion.
