Operating the XM910
BASIC OPERATION
The following section explains the basic operation of the XM910.
CONNECTING MICROPHONES AND INSTRUMENTS
1. Before connecting mics or instru-
ments, make sure that the power
of all your systems components,
including the XM910, is turned off.
Also, make sure that the volume
and gain controls of each channel
of the XM910 and the MASTER
controls of the MAIN and MONI-
TOR section are turned all the way
down.
2. Connect the cables to your micro-
phones and instruments, and
insert the other end of the cable
firmly into the appropriate input on
the XM910.
3. Switch on the power of any periph-
eral devices, and then power up
the XM910.
NOTE: Since the XM910 contains
two power amplifiers, it is important
to remember the Golden Rule of
audio … " LAST ON, FIRST OFF".
Translated, this means that when turning on your system, you should always turn your power amplifiers on
LAST, and when turning your system off, turn your power amps off FIRST. This helps avoid any loud pops
caused by rush current at power up or power down, which can sometimes damage loudspeakers .
4. Set the MASTER control of the MAIN section to the "5" position.
5. While speaking into the mic (or playing the instrument), adjust the channel GAIN control so that the "PEAK"
LED of the channel lights occasionally, then back it down slightly.
6. Slowly adjust the channel VOLUME control until the desired level is reached.
7. If you wish to adjust the tone of each channel, adjust the equalizer controls as desired. You may have to
readjust the channel volume.
8. Use the MAIN section graphic equalizer and MASTER control to adjust the overall volume and tone.
