Stereo Return
miXim 10 has a stereo Return. This return is designed to be used
with a tip/ring/sleeve jack. The tip goes left, the ring goes right
and the sleeve is common (ground) to both channels. The Stereo
Return level is controlled by the miXim 10's "Stereo Rtn" pot. If
you are not using the Return, it can be used as additional unity
gain stereo input.
Main Level Pot and LEDs
The Main Level pot simultaneously controls the volume of both
the left and right outputs. The last stage Main amplifier pro-
vides up to 20 dB of additional gain. Since clipping doesn’t
occur until approximately +20 dB and the noise floor is at -95
dB, this gives miXim 10 a Signal-to-Noise (S/N) ratio of well
over 100 dB. Because of this, you can run the outputs at the +8
on the Main Level LED Meters (or slightly above) and still have
digital quality signal.
Tape Out (RCAs)
The Tape Left and Right Outs are duplicates of the Main Left and
Right Outs.
Headphone Out
The left and right output signals are also routed to a separate
stereo headphone amplifier. The volume of the headphone out-
put is controlled by the Main volume pot.
Power Indicator Switch
miXim 10 runs on 9 to 12 volts, AC. Whenever miXim 10 is
plugged in and the power switch is pushed in, the Power LED
will light. If the Power LED goes off check to make sure your
wall supply is properly plugged in and that the power switch is
pressed in.
