Operating Determinations

When installing this mixer, please make sure that the device is not exposed to extreme heat, moisture or dust! There should
not be any cables lying around. Doing so endangers you as well as others.

Do not operate the mixer in extremely hot (more than 30˚C / 100˚F) or extremely cold (less than 5˚C / 40˚F) surroundings.
Keep away from direct sunlight and heaters.

Operate the mixer only after becoming familiar with its functions. Do not permit operation by persons not qualified for
operating the mixer. Most damages are the result of unprofessional operation!

Never use spray cleaners to clean the faders! Never use solvents or abrasive detergents to clean the mixer! It is
recommended that you use a soft damp cloth. Please consider that unauthorized modifications on the device are
forbidden due to safety reasons!

Connections (Refer to diagrams on pages 3, 4 & 5)

• Make sure that the power switch (1) is set to OFF. Before connecting other devices to the mixer, all units have to be
switched off and the Master Control (17) set to min.

• Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the voltage selector (36) before connecting to power.

• In order to obtain the highest sound quality, only use high quality American DJ®, Ameri-Cable™ cables for connecting
devices. Make sure that the cables are properly fixed.

• Connect your amplifier to the MASTER OUTPUT jacks (31). Make sure that the channels are set properly (L & R). For
mono and bridged operation, please use the BALANCED OUTPUT XLR jacks (34) and set the STEREO/MONO switch
(16) to MONO.

• Via the BOOTH OUT jacks (33), you can either connect monitor active speakers for the DJ booth, an additional
amplifier or a second zone.

• For recording, connect your tape recorder or cassette deck to the REC OUT jacks (32). The REC OUT level will not be
influenced by the master fader (17). You can set the output level with the channel faders (4).

• The XDM-352 features two microphone inputs. The Nuetrik™ connector jack (20) on the front panel is for 1/4 inch
(6.3mm) jack plugs and XLR-plugs. With the TALKOVER switch (22), you can attenuate all other signals without affecting
the microphone volume. You can switch Mic 1 Jack (20) off by setting the TALKOVER SWITCH to MICRO OFF. The 1/4
inch (6.3mm) MIC 2 jack (25) is on the rear panel. You can connect your second microphone here. Adjust the microphone
volume by using the channel fader for CHANNEL 4.Make sure that the MIC 2 / LINE 5 SWITCH is set to MIC 2.

5 SWITCH to LINE 5.

• You can connect 2 turntables using the PHONO 1 jacks (27) and PHONO 2 jacks (28) on the rear panel. You can only
control the turntables signal after you switched the PHONO / LINE switches (3) to PHONO. The signal is then controlled
via the CH-1 and CH-2 faders (4). If you wish to connect a third turntable, switch the LINE 3 / PHONO 3 SELECTOR (37)
on the rear panel to PHONO 3. You can only control the turntable signal after switching the PHONO 3-LINE 3 / LINE 4 /
SWITCH (3) to PHONO 3. The signal is then controlled via the CHANNEL 3 FADER (4).

• Connect your tape player, tuner, sound effects, CD player, cassette deck or any other line signals to the LINE jacks (27,
28, 29, & 30) on the rear panel. You can only control the line signals after switching the PHONO/LINE switches (3) to LINE.
The signal is then controlled via the CH-1, CH-2, CH-3 and CH-4 faders (4).
