Introduction
 
 
 
A Few Words for Beginners  
 
We realize that some of  you who have purchased the MultiMix 
FireWire are fairly new to the art of  mixing and computer 
recording.  We’ve written this manual with that in mind. We 
designed the MultiMix to be both powerful and easy enough to use 
that even a beginner can quickly pick up the basics.  
 
Many mixer manuals—and manuals for just about any electronic 
instrument for that matter—are full of  complicated terminology 
and incomplete instructions that presume a lot of  experience on 
the part of  the reader. We try to avoid that with this manual. True 
enough, you will find all the technical lingo and specifications you 
can handle in here, but we do our best to make this accessible to 
you.  
 
Beginners will find several elements of  this manual especially 
useful. Keep your eye out for the tips found in the gray boxes on 
the right side of  the page. Be sure to check out the hookup 
diagrams on page 11, which will give you some ideas on how to fit 
the mixer into your audio setup after you’ve taken a tour of  the 
mixer in Chapter 2. And if  you come across any terms that you 
haven’t seen before, the glossary probably can help you out.
