Using the Microphone
Incorporating Voice into the Mix
To blend voice from the microphone with the audio program material, adjust the turn the MIC 1
Talkover Switch to ON and use the MIC1 level slider to increase or decrease the microphone level.
This will not affect the main volume inputs. When the microphone is not in use, set the MIC level
slider to “0.”
Using the Crossfader
with the Assign
Switches
For crossfading effects, you can assign any of
the three channels to either A or B sides of
the crossfade mix using the Crossfade assign
knobs.
When the crossfade slider is in the center
position, the two assigned channels play equally.
Sliding the control towards the A position will
increase the level of A and fade out B
proportionally to the distance from center.
Likewise, sliding the control towards the B
position will increase the level of B and fade
out A.

Using the Gain Controls
Adjusting the Gain controls for each channel
permits you to fine tune the level of each of
the audio inputs, since input levels usually
vary. Rotate the Gain control clockwise to
increase level. After you preset the gain levels
for each input, it is recommended that you do
not adjust them further, as you can cause
sound level imbalances during a mix.

Talkover Mode
Talkover mode allows a voice to be heard
clearly through the microphone by attenuating
all the other audio input sources. This mode
is engaged by setting the Talkover Switch to
the TALKOVER position. When not using the
microphone, set this switch to the OFF position.

4. Set the Channel 1, Channel 2 and Channel 3
volume control sliders to approximately 8-10.
5. Rotate the Master Volume Control clockwise

(zero) on both Output Level LED meters, and
leave it at that setting. (Please note that the

output signal being mixed from all sources for
each of the Left and Right channels.)
