Frequently Asked Questions - PRO-2 MKII Citronic

How do I connect turntables to the PRO-2 MKII?

Connect your turntables to the Phono inputs on Channel 1 and 2 (RCA). Ensure the input selector switch is set to Phono. If your turntables are not self-grounded, connect the earth wire to the grounding point on the rear panel.

What is the correct power supply for this mixer?

Use only the supplied external power supply rated at 12Vac, 500mA. Using a different power supply may damage the unit.

How do I set the levels correctly?

Turn down Master Volume, Microphone Level, Channel Faders, and Gain controls before powering on. Gradually increase Gain, Master Volume, and Channel Faders while monitoring the VU meter. Aim for the first red LEDs to light intermittently.

Why is there no sound output?

Check the following: power switch is on, all cables are securely connected, Master Volume and Channel Faders are turned up, the Crossfader position is correct (not centered), the input source is playing, and the input selector is set to Line or Phono as appropriate.

How do I replace the crossfader?

Disconnect the mains power. Undo the two securing screws slightly, lift the crossfader, and disconnect it from the in-line connector (note orientation). Connect the new crossfader, reposition, and secure with the screws.

How can I monitor channels through headphones?

Connect headphones to the Headphone jack on the front panel. Use the Cue Level knob to set volume and the Cue Mix knob to blend between Channel 1 and Channel 2.

What should I do if the sound is distorted?

Ensure line-level sources are not connected to Phono inputs. Reduce Gain levels and check that Master Volume and Channel Faders are not set too high. Also verify the volume control on your amplifier or speakers.

How do I clean the mixer?

Use a lint-free cloth, either dry or slightly damp (with water only). Do not use solvents or abrasive cleaners. Ensure no moisture enters the controls or connectors.

Can I connect a microphone to this mixer?

Yes, connect a DJ microphone to the 6.3mm Jack input on the front panel. Adjust the Microphone Level control and use the Mic EQ (Hi and Lo) to shape the sound.

What is the warranty and where can I find support?

This product is covered by a standard manufacturer's warranty. For service or support, contact Citronic or your authorized dealer. Refer to www.citronic.com for more information.

Operation:

• Only use the supplied power supply.

- Connect any turntables to the RCA PHONO inputs on ch.1 and ch.2.

- Earth turntables (unless they are self-grounded) to the case grounding point on the rear panel

- Connect CD, CD+G, laptop, TV decoder, DVD or MP3 players to LINE inputs.

- Connect DJ mic and headphones at the front.

- With MASTER LEVEL, MICROPHONE LEVEL, CHANNEL FADERS and GAINS Turned down, switch the power on.

• Gradually increase the GAIN, MASTER LEVEL and CHANNEL FADERS and check the output level on the VU indicator. Set the levels so that the first red lights light up intermittently.

- Be aware that the CROSSFADER also operates across channels 1 & 2.

• To use CROSSFADER move left and right to seamlessly blend between these 2 channels.

• Gradually increase the microphone channel levels to check microphone signals.

- Monitor each stereo channel via headphones. Rotate the CUE MIX knob to monitor between ch1 and CH2.

- Adjust Hi, and Lo EQ settings to set the desired tonal effect

- Adjust MICROPHONE LEVEL Hi and Lo EQ to set the tone to suit.

- When not being used, turn down the Vocal mic levels to avoid unwanted noise.

Troubleshooting:

NO OUTPUT -

Check power switch is on

Check leads and connections

Check MASTER LEVEL and mic or channel fader is turned up

Check CROSSFADER position

Check your sound source is playing

Check if the input switch is set to LINE or PHONO

DISTORTED OUTPUT -

Check line input isn't connected to PHONO

Check GAIN input levels

Check channel and MASTER faders are not too high

Check volume control of amplifier, active speakers or recording equipment

MICROPHONE FEEDBACK & OUTPUT

Eliminate "line-of-sight" between mic(s) and speakers

Check DELAY is not set too high

Adjust Hi or Lo EQ and/or level controls

No output – check if mic switched off

TOO QUIET -

Check turntable is not connected to line input

Check channel and MASTER VOLUME is not set to low

Check the Gain levels on each channel

Check for volume control on sound source
