lighting system, provided your lighting 
system has “sound-to-light” capability 
(e.g. BEHRINGER LC2412 Lighting Console). 
The Main Output section offers balanced 
1/4" TRS and XLR stereo outputs, as well as 
1/4" TRS Main Insert jacks for connecting to 
outboard EQ and dynamics processors, such 
as limiters and compressors. This section 
also features RCA outputs for recording 
your set. The Monitor/Zone Output section 
gives you  separate stereo 1/4" and XLR 
monitor outputs, as well as 1/4" stereo zone 
outputs, each with their own dedicated 
level controls. This feature gives the 
DX2000USB incredible zone mixing 
versatility, allowing you to send output 
signals to a variety of destinations, such as 
the lobby, restaurant or waiting areas, 
all the while maintaining total control.
Transforming with Punch and Cut
Transforming is a DJ term used to 
describe the chopping up of sound to 
create some rather dramatic effects. 
Traditionally this is done by rapidly 
moving a crossfader to give a stuttering 
or “gated” effect, either between two 
music sources, or one source and 
silence. Another DJ trick is to use the 
channel faders, or channel on buttons, 
to chop one music track over another. 
These methods are still valid, but if you’re 
looking for instant gratification, check 
out our ergonomic alternative— a pair of 
big assignable non-latching PUNCH/CUT 
buttons. We’re sure you will grow to love 
their speed and ease of operation.
The Punch and Cut modes are 
available via the TRANSFORM MODE 
button, with a pair of LEDs that let you 
know which function is active. The X and 
Y Punch/Cut buttons are conveniently 
located right next to the crossfader 
with which they are designed to work.
