Product Function Guidelines

Function description and use connection

5V DC IN jack: For connecting to a USB power adapter or USB mobile battery.
- Note:
  Please read the safety precautions for the USB power adapter or USB mobile battery you are using. Use a USB power adapter or USB mobile battery that can supply power via a DC plug based on the following USB standards:
- Output voltage: 4.5 V to 5.2V
- Output current: 1 OOOmA or greater
USB jack (type B): For connecting to a computer using the; included USB 2 .0 cable. When connected to a computer the data can be sent between the mixer and computer.
- Note: Please do not connect any device to this USB jack other than a personal computer or tablet device.
Combo input: (combined jack XLR, balanced/ ¼-inch jack) for channel CH1 – CH2, for the connection of a microphone via an XLR plug or microphone via an XLR plug or an audio source with line signal level via a ¼-inch plug.
Mono input: (combined jack XLR, balanced/ ¼-inch jack unbalanced) for channel CH1 – CH2 for the connection of a microphone via an XLR plug or an audio source with line signal level via a Phone plug.
Stereo input: (¼-inch jack, balanced) for channel CH 3-CH 6 for connection of an audio source with line signal level; when connecting a mono source, use the left jack only.
PAD switches: When this switch is turned on(.-.), the input signal from the [MIC/LINE] jack of the mono input channel is attenuated by 25dB. Tum this switch off if you’ve connected a microphone or other device with a low input level to the channel. Turn it on ( ) if you’ve connected a line-level device.
- Note: There may be some noise when operating switches. To prevent this, turn the [ON] switch of a channel off before operating other switches.
Gain Control: To adjust the input amplification, for CH 1 and CH 2.
+48V phantom switch[+48V] Led: When this switch is turn on( ) , the[+48V]lights and DC +48V phantom power is supplied to the XLR plug connected to the channel 1-2, Turn this switch on when using a phantom-powered condenser microphone.
- Note: Be sure to leave this switch off if you do not need phantom power. Follow the important precautions below, in order to prevent noise and possible damage to external devices as well as the mixer if you turn this switch on
1. Be sure to leave this switch off when you connect a devicet hat does not support phantom power to channel 1-4.
2. Make sure to turn this switch off when connecting/ disconnecting a cable to / from channel.
3. Turn the level knob of the channel 1 to “0” (minimum) before turning this switch on & off
Comp knobs CHl-2: For adjusting the amount of compression applied to the channel. As the [COMP]kond is turned to the finht the threshold, ratio.and output gain are adjusted simultaneously.
- Threshold: +22 dBu to -8 dBu
- Ratio: 1:1 to 4 :1
- Output gain: 0 dB to +7 dB
- Attack time: Approximately 25 ms
- Release time: Approximately 300 ms
- NOTE Avoid setting the compression too high; since thaverage output level may lead to feedback.
USB PLAYBACK: This switch is ma inly used to control the switching action of playback, when the switch is placed in the USB playback passes through the CHS-6 output, and when the switch is placed in (.a.), the USB playback signal is off.
NOTE: When this switch is placed in (.-.),the USS playback passes through the CH5-6 output and the LED lights up
Equalizer: To adjust the high frequencies”HIGH” and “MID”and low frequencies”LOW”.for each of the in put channels “CH 1 through CH 6.
Band| Type| Frequency| Cut/Boost range| channel|
---|---|---|---|---|---
HIGH| Shelving| 12 kHz|

±15 dB

| CH1-6
MID| Peaking| 2.5 kHz’| CH1-6
LOW| Shelving| 80Hz| CH1-6

Effect Gain knods: These control knobs of CH 1-6 are ma inly used to adjust the output level of the effect.
Pan Control: For channels CH1-CH6, to send the mono signal in, creating a stereo field.
PEAK LED CHl-2: Level Peak Indication, for channel CH1-CH2.
Channel LEVEL: These knobs are used to control ch1-6 channel and Bluetooth and USB playback output level gain.

MAIN MIX level knob: For adjusting the level of the signal output to the [ MAIN MIX] jacks.
TK TO PHONES SWITCH: This switch is mainly used to control the output switch of 2TK, when the switch_ is placed in (.a.), the 2TK signal is output via the PHONES/CTRL ROOM.
LED LEVEL display: The level meter LED shows the level of the signal in the MAIN STEREO L/ R buses,the”0″ ( )segment corresponds to the nominal output level. the level meter
indicator lights when output reaches the clipping level.
TK TO MAIN SWITCH: This switch is mainly used to control the output switch of 2TK, when the..,. the switch is placed in (.a.), the 2TK signal is output via the MAIN.
POWER SWITCH:
• Power switch of the mixer.

3. The Bluetooth version is 5.0;
4 . Its transmission distance is 10 meters without any obstructions.

2TK input: (RCA jack)The 2TK input is a set of stereo auxiliary inputs, and the signal passes from the mixer to the output.
2TK output: (RCA jack)The 2TK output is a set of stereo auxiliary output interfaces, and all signals pass through the mixer to its output.
