FUNCTIONS TOP PANEL q MIC LEVEL This switch is used to adjust the signal level of the Main MIC input. !4 BOOTH LEVEL This knob is used to adjust the level of output through the Booth section. w MIC EQ The2-Band MIC EQ feature is used to adjust the equalization level of the High & Low frequencies on the MIC input signal. These levels can be adjusted to/by +/-12dB. !5 MONITOR SELECT SWITCH This switch is used to select which type of monitor signal, either CUE or MASTER, is heard in headphones connected to this mixer. When set to CUE, both signals (including the EQ settings on each) will be heard. Using the CF Monitor Fader @9 will alter what is heard in the headphones. e EFFECT SEND LEVEL This knob is used to adjust the signal level from an external effects device connected to the AUX send input !6 RECEIVE CUE SWITCH This switch has three settings, which in turn control how jack on the rear panel of this mixer. When set to r GAIN BLEND, users will hear both the effect receive signal and The GAIN controls (on both PGM 1 & 2) are used to adjust either the Cue or Master output (see 15 for more). For optimal acoustic quality first set the set to OFF, no effect receive signal will be heard.

CAUTION i SCRATCH EQ This button is used to activate the scratch EQ feature (new) on this mixer. The scratch EQ feature essentially disregards the manual isolator EQ setting and passes all signal feeds through a Mid Boost and Hi Boost EQ and Low Cut circuit (per PGM), which is designed to generate the best scratch EQ setting possible. o SCRATCH EQ INDICATOR This LED will be illuminated when the Scratch EQ feature i is on. @0 PHONO/LINE SELECTOR This switch is used to determine which input source is sent to the PGM. Once an input is connected to the correct PGM jack users are able to switch back and forward between either phono or line signals, effectively creating a type of transformer scratch. !0 PGM BALANCE This fader is used to adjust the stereo balance on each PGM. The PGM Balance can also be used to adjust an unbalanced stereo image.
