1. 
of the cable into a mains outlet. DO NOT turn the mixer on yet. 
Make all appropriate audio connections:
2. 
Connect microphones to the MIC jacks using XLR cables.
Connect line-level sources to the LINE IN jacks using ¼
" TS cables. 
Connect stereo sources (keyboard, drum machine) to one of the 
stereo LINE IN jacks using a pair of ¼" TS cables. 
Connect a CD player to the 2 TRACK INPUT using ¼
" or RCA cables. 
See Applications chapter for more details and options. 
Connect a monitoring source or speaker system. You may connect powered 
3. 
studio monitors, powered loudspeakers or a power amp to the MAIN OUTPUT 
jacks. You may also connect a pair of headphones to the PHONES jack. 
Leave powered speakers and/or power amps turned off until the mixer has 
been powered on. 
Turn all PAN/BAL and EQ knobs to their center (12 o’clock) position. Set all other 
4. 
knobs and faders all the way down/off. 
Once all connections have been made, you may turn the mixer on. 
5. 
After the mixer is turned on, you may also turn the speakers or

Set the input gain level for each channel using the GAIN knob. While testing

the audio source, turn the GAIN knob as high as possible without allowing 
the CLIP LED to light. See the Gain Setting section for details. 
Raise the MAIN fader to 0. You may adjust it further as you begin 
8. 
to set levels. 
Adjust all channel volume faders until you achieve a balanced mix.
