WHAT IS MIXMODE CONTROL?
The P4R receiver receives two signals (1/L and 2/R) from the P4T transmitter. The P4R processes these signals in either MixMode or stereo:
STEREO: In stereo, the signals remain separate so that 1/L is heard through the left earphone and 2/R is heard through
the right earphone. The balance knob on the P4R adjusts the balance between the left and right earphones.
MIXMODE: In MixMode, the signals are “mixed” in relation to one another using the balance knob, blended into one
signal. The one mixed signal is sent to both the left and right earphones.
Step One: The P4R
receives TWO signals
from the P4T transmit-
ter.
Step Two: Using the balance knob,
the user blends the two signals until
the correct mix is achieved.
Step Three: The P4R
sends the mixed signal
to both earphones.
Step Four: The user may con-
tinue to adjust the blend using
the balance knob throughout
the performance.

Using MixMode
MIXMODE IN APPLICATIONS
MixMode is most useful when two distinct mixes are provided to the P4T transmitter, such as a band mix and a vocal mix. MixMode combines
these two signals into one monitor mix and allows you to control this mix during the performance using the P4R receiver. For example, if the
band overpowers the vocals in the mix, increase the level of the vocals and decrease the level of the band by simply adjusting the balance
knob on the receiver.
