mix. You can also pan the channels hard left and right to cre-

ate two mono buses. Keep in mind that using the 3/4 switch 

mutes the channel from the main mix, so use the ALT 3/4 bus 
for a separate stereo, or two mono, zone mixes.

 The Control Room outputs are 1/4-inch balanced jacks used 

to connect a studio monitor system.  The Control Room out-

puts have the same output as the L/R MIX, however, the level 

can be adjusted independently from the main mix using the 

C ROOM/HEADPHONES control.
H - MAIN MIX LEFT/RIGHT 1/4-INCH OUTPUTS

 In a live sound application, the LEFT/ RIGHT MIX outputs are 

1/4-inch balanced jacks used to connect a power amplifier 

or powered speakers.  In a recording application, the LEFT/ 

RIGHT MIX outputs are used to connect to the inputs of a 

stereo device such as computer sound card, DAT, or cassette 

recorder.
I - MAIN MIX LEFT/RIGHT XLR OUTPUTS

 In a live sound application, the LEFT/ RIGHT MIX outputs are 

connected to a power amplifier or powered speakers.  In a 

recording application, the LEFT/ RIGHT MIX outputs are used 

to connect to the inputs of a stereo device such as computer 

sound card, DAT, or cassette recorder.

 The AUX RETURN 1 LEFT/RIGHT are stereo inputs that are 

generally used to connect the outputs of an effects processor, 

but can also accept the signal from any line level source like 

a keyboard, recorder and even another mixer. The signal con-

nected to the AUX  RETURN 1 LEFT/RIGHT will feed the main 

LEFT/RIGHT MIX bus. The overall level is controlled by the 

AUX  RET 1 knob located in the master section on the front 

panel. Use the LEFT/MONO input when connecting a mono 

input signal to the AUX  RETURN.  

The signal present at the AUX1 output is sent from the AUX1 

bus, which is fed from all the AUX 1 sends on the input chan-

nels. The AUX 1 output can be used as the EFFECTS SEND 

bus in a live sound situation by connecting the output to an 

external effects device.

 The AUX RETURN 2 LEFT/RIGHT are stereo inputs that are 

generally used to connect the outputs of an effects proces-

sor, but can also accept the signal from any line level source 

like a keyboard, recorder and even another mixer. The signal 

connected to the AUX  RETURN 2 LEFT/RIGHT will feed the 

main LEFT/RIGHT MIX bus. The overall level is controlled by 

the AUX  RET 2 knob located in the master section on the 

front panel. Use the LEFT/MONO input when connecting a 

mono input signal to the AUX  RETURN.  
M - AUX  Send 2

The signal present at the AUX 2 output is sent from the AUX 

2 bus, which is fed from all the AUX 2 sends on the input 

channels. The AUX 2 output can be used as the MONITOR 

MIX bus in a live sound situation by connecting the output to 

a power amp and monitor speaker.

With a footswitch connected to this jack, you can turn on 

and off the on-board digital effects by simply stepping on 

the footswitch.

  You can connect a standard pair of stereo headphones to 

the PHONES jack and depending on the position of the 2T 

TO CR switch, you will hear either the 2-Track input or the 

MAIN mix.

 The MDR1248 and MDR1688 features dual RCA connectors 

for the left and right 2-track input.  You can use these inputs 

to connect a CD, Cassette, Mini Disk, DAT or the output from 

a computer sound card.  To listen to the input connected to 

the 2T IN, be sure to check the position of the 2T To Mix and 

2T TO CR switches. For more information on using the 2 Track 
inputs, see the section “PLAYING BACK A CD USING 2T TO MIX ” 
on page 18 of this manual.
Q - 2TR OUTPUT

 If you want to record the mix from your MDR1248 and 

MDR1688, you can use the 2-track OUT connectors. The 

dual RCA connectors can be connected to a CD, Cassette, 

Mini Disk, DAT or even the input of a computer sound card 

for hard disk recording. For more information on using the 2 
Track outputs, see the section “RECORDING A MIX FROM THE 
MDR1248 and MDR1688 ” on page 18 of this manual.
