the unit to a mains socket. Use shielded cables. Set
the control faders to minimum before switching on.
After connecting to a mains socket (230 V~/
50 Hz) and switching on the mixer with the power
switch (5), units connected to the input faders (7) can
be monitored on the left side of the headphones via
turning the monitor fader up (11); afterwards, they are
carefully turned up and the level can be monitored at
the VU meters (3).
The console output is heard on the right side of the
headphones.
