2 Safety Notes

The unit corresponds to all relevant directives of
the EU and is therefore marked with
WARNING The unit uses dangerous mains
voltage. Leave servicing to skilled
personnel only and do not insert
anything into the air vents! Inex-
pert handling of the unit may result
in electric shock.
Please observe the following items in any case:
G
The unit is suitable for indoor use only. Protect
it against dripping water and splash water,
high air humidity and heat (admissible ambient
temperature range: 0 – 40 °C).
G
Do not place any vessel filled with liquid on the
unit, e. g. a drinking glass.
G
The heat generated inside the unit must be
dissipated by air circulation; never cover the
air vents of the housing.
G
Do not operate the unit and immediately dis-
connect the mains plug from the socket
1. if the unit or the mains cable is visibly dam-
aged,
2. if a defect might have occurred after the unit
was dropped or suffered a similar accident,
3. if malfunctions occur.
In any case the unit must be repaired by skilled
personnel.
G
Never pull the mains cable to disconnect the
mains plug from the socket; always seize the
plug.
G
For cleaning only use a dry, soft cloth; never
use water or chemicals.

ity for any resulting personal damage or mate-
rial damage will be accepted if the unit is used
for other purposes than originally intended, if it

definitively, take it to a local recycling
plant for a disposal which is not harmful
to the environment.

3 Applications

This audio mixer with integrated stereo power
amplifier (class D, 2 × 475 W
RMS
ers) is suited for various PA and recording appli-
cations. It is designed as a table-top unit and
provides 6 mono input channels and 3 stereo
input channels for connecting microphones (also
phantom-powered) and audio sources with line
output level (e. g. instruments, players). Another
stereo input channel can, for example, be used
for replaying from a recorder.
The input signals can be added to a stereo
sum signal and two send ways. A digital effect
processor is available for adding effects. Audio
mixing may be monitored by means of head-
phones. Pre-fader listening to individual channel
signals by means of headphones is also sup-
ported.

4 Connecting the Units

To avoid interfering noise, switch off the mixer or
close the faders MONITOR (35) and MAIN MIX
(36) and set the control PHONES (15) to mini-
mum prior to connecting / disconnecting.
.

4.1 Audio sources

In the input channels, it is not possible to switch
between the microphone input (13) and the line
input (11, 12). Therefore, only connect one of
these two inputs per channel.

4.1.1 Microphones

Connect microphones to the balanced XLR
jacks MIC (13). For phantom-powered micro-
phones, the switches PHANTOM (14) are avail-
able: With each of these switches, a phantom
power supply of 48 V for three microphone
inputs can be switched on. When a phantom
power supply is switched on, the LED next to the
corresponding switch will light up.
Caution: When the phantom power is switched
on, do not connect any microphone with unbal-
anced output; it may be damaged.
To prevent switching noise in the speakers and
the headphones, only switch the phantom
power on or off when the mixer has been
switched off or when the corresponding buttons
MUTE (4) have been pressed and the control
PHONES (15) has been set to minimum.

4.1.2 Line audio sources

Connect audio sources with line signal level
(e. g. receivers of wireless microphone systems,
effect units, instruments, players) to the 6.3 mm
jacks LINE IN (11, 12) of the input channels. The
jacks are balanced. To connect units with unbal-
anced output, use 2-pole 6.3 mm plugs.
— Connect mono units to the jacks (12) of the
mono channels CH 1 to CH 6.
— Connect stereo units to the jacks (11) of
the stereo channels CH 7-8, CH 9-10 and
CH 11-12. To connect a mono unit to a stereo
channel, only use the upper jack L (MONO);
the mono signal will then be internally sent to
the right and left channels.
If the input channels do not suffice, the following
stereo inputs can be used to connect additional
line sources:
1. input AUX RET (25)
To connect a mono unit, only use the jack L
at 4 Ω speak-
(MONO); the mono signal will then be inter-
nally sent to the right and left channels.
2. input TAPE IN (18)
e. g. to connect a CD player for background
music during intervals
