Fader Cleaning

With heavy use in harsh environments, the faders may

need lubrication. This treatment extends longevity and can
make used faders as good as new. The fader assembly must be
removed from the MP 2 for proper cleaning. We recommend
any of the following cleaning solutions:
Caig Cailube MCL 100% spray lubricant
Caig Cailube MCL 5% spray cleaner
CRC 2-26 (www.crcindustries.com)

Order CaiLube MCL

1. Unplug the MP 2.
2. Remove the bottom cover.
3. Remove the fader screws from the front panel.
4. Draw fader assembly out through the bottom.
5. Remove ribbon cable from old fader.

and replace bottom cover.

B. Fader cleaning
1. Hold the fader assembly away from the mixer.
2. Position the fader at mid-travel.
3. Spray cleaner/lubricant into both ends of the fader in

HOUSE LEVEL control: Adjusts the Output Levels of the MAIN OUTPUTS.

Phone PAN control: Changes the relative levels of the Cue and Program mixed together in stereo for the headphones. PGM

follows the Main (House) Output; Cue is determined by the CUE switches and only goes to the headphones. Adjust this
control anywhere between Program and Cue.

Phone CUE switches: Select Program A or B in any combination. The associated yellow indicator lights when a CUE is

activated and pressed in. Depressing a button sends PGM signals to the CUE side of the PAN control. For example, when
the Crossfader is to the left (playing PGM A to the House), listen to CUE B (PGM B) on the headphones to audition, match
beats or prepare its starting point.

PHONE LEVEL and headphone jack: As you guessed, plug your headphones in here and adjust the overall volume with

the LEVEL control.

POWER indicator: Illuminates to let you know that the MP 2 is plugged in and ready to go.
