INSTALLATION GUIDELINES:
 Placing and using the unit for long periods near heat-generating sources such as amplifiers, spotlights,
etc. will affect its performance and may even damage the unit.
 Take care to minimize shocks and vibrations during transport.
 When installed in a booth or flight case, please make sure to have good ventilation to improve heat
evacuation of the unit.
 To avoid condensation to be formed inside, allow the unit to adapt to the surrounding temperatures when
bringing it into a warm room after transport. Condense sometimes prevents the unit from working at full
performance.
 Choose the place where you put your installation very carefully. Avoid presence of heat sources. Avoid
places with vibrations or places that are dusty and humid.
 To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose this appliance to rain or moisture.
 In order to prevent electric shock, do not open the top cover. If a problem occurs, contact your dealer.

 The player should not be adjusted or repaired by anyone except properly qualified service personnel.
 This unit may cause interference to radio and television reception.
CLEANING THE PLAYER:
Clean by wiping with a polished cloth slightly dipped with water. Avoid getting water inside the unit. Do not
use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which will damage the unit.

CONTROLS AND FUNCTIONS

1. MAINS input: connect the unit to the 100-240V AC mains, using the supplied power-cord.
2. POWER ON/OFF switch: switches the unit on and off.
3. USB2 connection: this is the second (type-A) USB-connection, used to connect any USB mass storage
device that was formatted in FAT or FAT32. By default this input is used to connect a hard disk. (see
chapter "connections")
4. MIDI / LINK USB connection: this (type-B) USB-connection is used to connect the player to a computer
with MIDI DJ-software. Please check the chapter "connections" for more information.
5. MASTER BALANCED OUTPUT: The XLR-connectors can be used to connect this mixer to any
balanced amplifier input or powered speakers, using special balanced signal cables.
6. MASTER UNBALANCED OUTPUT: The "master" output has the same output signal as the balanced
master output(5) but unbalanced.
7. BOOTH MASTER OUTPUT: The "booth master" output carries the same signal as the master but can
be controlled independently by the booth master (49). Use the outputs to connect unbalanced amplifiers
or connect a sound recorder.
8. PH/LINE SWITCH: This switch makes it possible to switch between the Phono and the Line input level
for this channel.
9. ANALOG INPUT: to both mixer channels you can connect turntables or extra CD-players that can be
mixed simultaneously with tracks from the DMC2000 players and DJ-software from your PC/MAC.
10. GROUND (GND) CONNECTION: Many Turntables have a GND-connection. It is preferable to connect
this signal ground to the GND-connector. If your turntable does not have a ground wire, you don't have
to use this connector.
11. DJ MIC INPUT JACK: Combo jack. Accepts either a balanced microphone with an XLR connector or an
unbalanced microphone with 1/4" mono jack. This input is mainly used as DJ-microphone. The talkover
