When operating the mixer with a computer, install audio software for your operating system. Various programs for audio reproduction/recording are available on the internet free of charge.

1. Start the computer. Connect the USB port (1) to a USB port on the computer. The computer will recognize the

switched-on mixer as a USB audio device for audio input and audio output.

2. Call up the replay/recording software and make the settings required for audio reproduction via the mixer or audio

recording from the mixer. If no audio recording or audio reproduction is possible, check the system settings of the computer to find out if the USB interface has been selected for audio input or audio output.5 OPERATION

WARNING: Never adjust the audio system and the headphones to a very high volume. Permanent

high volumes may damage your hearing! Your ear will get accustomed to high volumes which do not seem to be that high any more after some time. Therefore, do not further increase a high volume after getting used to it.

1. Use the button LINE / USB (13) to select the input signal assigned to channel LINE/USB.

Note: For recordings via the USB port, please take into account that there is a risk of feedback if the recording signal of the computer is assigned to channel LINE/USB as an input signal.

2. For the basic setting, first set the controls :

- LEVEL (19, 20) to the minimum - HIGH, LOW (14, 16), PAN (15) and BAL (17) to mid-position - GAIN (12) and MASTER (23) to mid-position Feed an audio signal to channel 1. Turn up the control LEVEL (19) until the audio signal can be heard well and it is possible to adjust its sound with the controls HIGH and LOW (14). If you have to turn up the control LEVEL very far, turn up the control GAIN (12) to increase the input gain. However, if the LED PEAK (18) lights up for a longer period of time, turn back the control GAIN accordingly. The LED PEAK should briefly flash for signal peaks only. Turn back the control LEVEL of channel 1. Feed an audio signal to channel LINE/USB and turn up its control LEVEL (20) until it is possible to adjust the sound with the controls HIGH and LOW(16).

3. After the basic setting, use the controls LEVEL to mix the signals of channels 1 and LINE/USB in the volume ratio

desired or to fade them in or out individually. When a channel is not used, always turn back its control LEVEL to the minimum.

4. For channel 1, use the control PAN (15) to place the mono signal in the stereo sound. For channel LINE/USB, use the

control BAL (17) to adjust the balance of the stereo signal.

5. To add the signal of the input TAPE IN (5) to the audio mix, press the button TAPE TO MAIN (11).

Note: When a recording is made via the output MASTER (6) and at the same time reproduced via the input TAPE IN, make sure that the button TAPE TO MAIN is disengaged. Otherwise, there will be feedback.

6. Use the control MASTER (23) to adjust the level of the output signal sent to the jacks MASTER (6) and the USB port

(1). If one of the overload LEDs CLIP (22) lights up, turn back the control LEVEL or any channel control (19, 20) turned up too far. Make sure that the button TAPE TO MAIN/MONITOR (11) is disengaged so that the LEDs CLIP will be able to respond to the output signal.
