Quick Start Guide
We’ll begin this guide by connecting a pair of speakers and generating some stereo output. Note that the operations
and procedures will vary somewhat according to the input devices you are using.
Step 1 Preparing the Power Sup-
ply
1. Make sure that the power switch of the unit is
set to the “ ” position (off).
2. Connect the socket of the included power cord
to the [AC IN] jack on the rear panel.
3. Plug the power cord into a power outlet.
Step 2 Making Connections
1. Turn all the faders and [GAIN] knobs com-
pletely down.
2. Connect the microphones, instruments, and/or
speakers you intend to use.
For details on making connections, see “Setup Examples”
(pages 12 – 13), “Front Panel” and “Rear Panel” (pages 14 –
15).
Step 3 Powering Up the System
To prevent an unwanted burst of noise from the
speakers, power up the devices in the following
order: peripheral devices (instruments, micro-
phones, etc.) mixing console power amps
(or powered speakers).
Reverse this order when turning the power off.
CAUTION
Be sure to turn the power on/off in the order given in Step 3
above every time you use the mixer. Failure to do so may
result in loud noise bursts that can damage your equipment,
your ears, or both.
NOTICE
If you are using condenser microphones that require phantom
power, turn the mixer’s [PHANTOM +48V] switch on before
turning on the power to the power amps or powered speakers.
See page 17 for details. Also, read the details about the
[PHANTOM +48V] switch on page 17 before turning the switch
on.
