MG10/2 5 MG10_E.book Page 6 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer An Introduction You’ve got yourself a mixer and now you’re ready to use it. Just plug everything in, twiddle the controls, and away you go … right? Well, if you’ve done this before you won’t have any problems, but if this is the first time you’ve ever used a mixer you might want to read through this little tutorial and pick up a few basics that will help you get better performance and make better mixes. 6 MG10/2 MG10_E.book Page 7 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 1 A Place For Everything and Everything In Its Place 1-1. A Plethora Of Connectors—What Goes Where? Questions you’re likely to encounter when setting up a system for the first time might include “Why all these different types of connectors on the back of my mixer?” and “What’s the difference?”. Let’s start by taking a look at the most common connector types. The Venerable RCA Pin Jack White Red This is the “consumer connector,” and the one that has been most commonly used on home audio gear for many years. Also known as “phono” jacks (short for ”phonogram”), but the term isn’t used much these days—besides, it’s too easily confusable with “phone” jacks, below. RCA pin jacks are always unbalanced, and generally carry a line-level signal at –10 dB, nominal. You’re most likely to use this type of connector when connecting a CD player or other home audio type source to your mixer, or when connecting the output of your mixer to a cassette recorder or similar gear. The Versatile Phone Jack The name “phone jack” arose simply because this configuration was first used in telephone switchboards. Phone jacks can be tricky because you can’t always tell what type of signal they’re designed to handle just by looking at them. It could be unbalanced mono, unbalanced stereo, balanced mono, or an insert patch point. The connector’s label will usually tell you what type of signal it handles, as will the owner’s manual (you do keep your manuals in a safe place, don’t you?). A phone jack that is set up to handle balanced signals is also often referred to as a “TRS” phone jack. “TRS” stands for Tip-Ring-Sleeve, which describes the configuration of the phone plug used. Stereo/TRS phone plug Mono phone plug The Sturdy XLR Male This type of connector is generally referred to as “XLR-type,” and almost always carries a balanced signal. If the corresponding circuitry is designed properly, however, XLR-type connectors will also handle unbalanced signals with no problem. Microphone cables usually have this type of connector, as do the inputs and outputs of most professional audio gear. Female MG10/2 7 MG10_E.book Page 8 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 1-2. Balanced, Unbalanced—What’s the Difference? In a word: “noise.” The whole point of balanced lines is noise rejection, and it’s something they’re very good at. Any length of wire will act as an antenna to pick up the random electromagnetic radiation we’re constantly surrounded by: radio and TV signals as well as spurious electromagnetic noise generated by power lines, motors, electric appliances, computer monitors, and a variety of other sources. The longer the wire, the more noise it is likely to pick up. That’s why balanced lines are the best choice for long cable runs. If your “studio” is basically confined to your desktop and all connections are no more than a meter or two in length, then unbalanced lines are fine—unless you’re surrounded by extremely high levels of electromagnetic noise. Another place balanced lines are almost always used is in microphone cables. The reason for this is that the output signal from most microphones is very small, so even a tiny amount of noise will be relatively large, and will be amplified to an alarming degree in the mixer’s highgain head amplifier. To summarize: Microphones: Short line-level runs: Long line-level runs: Use balanced lines. Unbalanced lines are fine if you’re in a relatively noise-free environment. The ambient electromagnetic noise level will be the ultimate deciding factor, but balanced is best. ■ How Do Balanced Lines Reject Noise? ** Skip this section if technical details make you queasy. ** Balanced lines work on the principle of “phase cancellation”: if you add two identical signals out of phase (i.e. one signal is inverted so its peaks coincide with the troughs in the other signal), the result is … nothing. A flat line. The signals cancel each other out. Normal-phase signal. No signal. (Phase cancellation) Reverse-phase signal. A balanced cable has three conductors: 1) A ground conductor which carries no signal, just the “ground” or “0” reference against which the signal in the other conductors fluctuates. 2) A “hot” or “+” conductor which carries the normal-phase audio signal. 3) A “cold” or “–” conductor which carries the reverse-phase audio signal. While the desired audio signals in the hot and cold conductors are out of phase, any noise induced in the line will be exactly the same in both conductors, and thus in phase. The trick is that the phase of one signal is reversed at the receiving end of the line so that the desired audio signals become inphase, and the induced noise suddenly finds itself out of phase. The out-of-phase noise signal is effectively canceled while the audio signal is left intact. Clever, eh? Normal-phase signal + normal-phase noise. Desired signal with no noise. Normal-phase signal + reverse-phase noise. 8 MG10/2 MG10_E.book Page 9 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 1-3. Signal Levels—Decibel Do’s and Don’ts From the moment you start dealing with things audio, you’ll have to deal with the term “decibel” and its abbreviation, “dB”. Things can get confusing because decibels are a very versatile unit of measure used to describe acoustic sound pressure levels as well as electronic signal levels. To make matters worse there are a number of variations: dBu, dBV, dBm. Fortunately, you don’t need to be an expert to make things work. Here are a few basics you should keep in mind: ● “Consumer” gear (such as home audio equipment) usually has line inputs and outputs with a nomi- nal (average) level of –10 dB. ● Professional audio gear usually has line inputs and outputs with a nominal level of +4 dB. ● You should always feed –10 dB inputs with a –10 dB signal. If you feed a +4 dB signal into a –10 dB input you are likely to overload the input. ● You should always feed +4 dB inputs with a +4 dB signal. A –10 dB signal is too small for a +4 dB input, and will result in less-than-optimum performance. ● Many professional and semi-professional devices have level switches on the inputs and/or outputs that let you select –10 or +4 dB. Be sure to set these switches to match the level of the connected equipment. ● Inputs that feature a “Gain” control—such as the mono-channel inputs on your Yamaha mixer—will accept a very wide range of input levels because the control can be used to match the input’s sensitivity to the signal. More on this later. MG10/2 9 MG10_E.book Page 10 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 2 Where Your Signal Goes Once It’s Inside the Box At first glance the block diagram of even a modest mixer can look like a space-station schematic. In reality, block diagrams are a great aid in understanding how the signal flows in any mixer. Here’s a greatly simplified block diagram of a generic mixer to help you become familiar with the way these things work. 2-1. Greatly Simplified Mixer Block Diagram Input Channel Master Section Signals from the mixer’s other input channels (if they are assigned to this master output or “bus”). 1 2 3 ■ Input Channel 1 Head Amp The very first stage in any mixer, and usually the only stage with significant “gain” or “amplification.” The head amp has a “gain” control that adjusts the mixer’s input sensitivity to match the level of the source. Small signals (e.g. mics) are amplified, and large signals are attenuated. 2 Equalizer Could be simple bass and treble controls or a full-blown 4-band parametric EQ. When boost is applied the EQ stage also has gain. You can actually overload the input channel by applying too much EQ boost. It’s usually better to cut than boost. 10 MG10/2 4 5 3 Channel Peak LED & Fader The channel peak LED is your most valuable tool for setting the input “gain” control for optimum performance. Note that it is located after the head amp and EQ stage. ■ Master Section 4 Summing Amplifier This is where the actual “mixing” takes place. Signals from all of the mixer’s input channels are “summed” (mixed) together here. 5 Master Fader & Level Meter A stereo, mono, or bus master fader and the mixer’s main output level meter. There could be several master faders depending on the design of the mixer— i.e. the number of buses or outputs it provides. MG10_E.book Page 11 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 3 The First Steps in Achieving Great Sound Before you even consider EQ and effects, or even the overall mix, it is important to make sure that levels are properly set for each individual source. This can’t be stressed enough—initial level setup is vitally important for achieving optimum performance from your mixer! Here’s why … and how. 3-1. The Head Amplifier “Gain” Control Is the Key! Let’s review our simplified mixer block diagram: Each and every “stage” in the mixer’s signal path will add a certain amount of noise to the signal: the head amp, the EQ stage, the summing amplifier, and the other buffer and gain stages that exist in the actual mixer circuit (this applies to analog mixers in particular). The thing to keep in mind is that the amount of noise added by each stage is usually not dependent to any significant degree on the level of the audio signal passing through the circuit. This means that the bigger the desired signal, the smaller the added noise will be in relation to it. In tech-speak this gives us a better “signal-to-noise ratio”—often abbreviated as “S/N ratio.” All of this leads to the following basic rule: To achieve the best overall system S/N ratio, amplify the input to the desired average level as early as possible in the signal path. In our mixer, that means the head amplifier. If you don’t get the signal up to the desired level at the head amplifier stage, you will need to apply more gain at later stages, which will only amplify the noise contributed by the preceding stages. Just remember that too much initial gain is bad too, because it will overload our channel circuitry and cause clipping. MG10/2 11 MG10_E.book Page 12 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 3-2. Level Setup Procedure For Optimum Performance Now that we know what we have to do, how do we do it? If you take another quick look at the mixer block diagram you’ll notice that there’s a peak indicator located right after the head amplifier and EQ stages, and therein lays our answer! Although the exact procedure you use will depend on the type of mixer you use and the application, as well as your personal preferences, here’s a general outline: 1 Start by setting all level controls to their minimum: master faders, channel faders, and input gain controls. Also make sure that no EQ is applied (no boost or cut), and that all effects and dynamic processors included in the system are defeated or bypassed. 2 Apply the source signal to each channel one at a time: have singers sing, players play, and playback devices play back at the loudest expected level. Gradually turn up the input gain control while the signal is being applied to the corresponding channel until the peak indicator begins to flash, then back off a little so that the peak indicator flashes only occasionally. Repeat for each active channel. 3 Raise your master fader(s) to their nominal levels (this will be the “0” markings on the fader scale). 4 Now, with all sources playing, you can raise the channel faders and set up an initial rough mix. That’s basically all there is to it. But do keep your eyes on the main output level meters while setting up the mix to be sure you don’t stay in the “peak zone” all the time. If the output level meters are peaking constantly you will need to lower the channel faders until the overall program falls within a good range— and this will depend on the “dynamic range” of your program material. 12 MG10/2 MG10_E.book Page 13 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 4 External Effects and Monitor Mixes 4-1. AUX Buses For Monitor Sends and Overall Effects There are a number of reasons why you might want to “tap” the signal flowing through your mixer at some point before the main outputs: the two most common being 1) to create a monitor mix that is separate from the main mix, and 2) to process the signal via an external effect unit and then bring it back into the mix. Both of these functions, and more, can be handled by the mixer’s AUX (Auxiliary) buses and level controls. If the mixer has two AUX buses, then it can handle both functions at the same time. Larger mixing consoles can have 6, 8, or even more auxiliary buses to handle a variety of monitoring and processing needs. Pre/Post—What’s the difference? pre post A “pre-fader” signal is taken from a point before the channel fader, so the send level is affected only by the AUX send level control and not by the channel fader. A “post-fader” signal is taken from a point after the channel fader, so its level will be affected by both the AUX send level control and the channel fader. Pre-fader sends are most commonly used to provide monitor mixes. Post-fader sends are most commonly used in conjunction with the mixer’s AUX or effect returns for external effect processing. Using the AUX buses and level controls is pretty straightforward. The only thing you need to consider is whether you need a “pre-fader” or “postfader” send. AUX sends often feature a switch that allows you to configure them for pre- or postfader operation. Pre-fader send for a monitor mix. The send signal is fed to the monitor power amplifier and speaker system. The channel fader does not affect the send level so the monitor mix remains independent of the main mix. No return signal is used in this case. AUX Send Level Channel Fader AUX Send Level AUX Return Level Post-fader send for external effects processing. The send signal is fed to the external effect unit—a reverb unit, for example—and the output from the effect unit is returned to the AUX Return jack and mixed back into the main program. The send level is affected by the channel fader so the effect level always remains in proportion to the channel signal. MG10/2 13 MG10_E.book Page 14 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer 4-2. Channel Inserts for Channel-specific Processing Another way to get the mixer’s signal outside the box is to use the channel inserts. The channel inserts are almost always located before the channel fader and, when used, actually “break” the mixer’s internal signal path. Unlike the AUX sends and returns, the channel insert only applies to the corresponding channel. Channel inserts are most commonly used for applying a dynamics processor such as a compressor or limiter to a specific channel—although they can be used with just about any type of in/out processor. Channel Fader When a plug is inserted into the channel insert jack, the internal signal path is interrupted and sent outside the mixer for external processing. Channel insert jacks must be used with a special insert cable that has a TRS phone jack on one end and mono phone jacks on the split “Y” end. One of the mono phone jacks carries the “send” signal to be fed to the input of the external processor, and the other carries the “return” signal from the output of the processor.

Approaching the Mix—Where Do You Start? Mixing is easy, right? Just twiddle the faders around until it sounds right? Well, you can do it that way, but a more systematic approach that is suited to the material you’re mixing will produce much better results, and faster. There are no rules, and you’ll probably end up developing a system that works best for you. But the key is to develop a system rather than working haphazardly. Here are a few ideas to get you started: Faders Down It might sound overly simple, but it is usually a good idea to start with all channel faders off—all the way down. It’s also possible to start with all faders at their nominal settings, but it’s too easy to lose perspective with this approach. Start with all faders down, then bring them up one by one to fill out the mix. But which channel should you start with? Example1: Vocal Ballad Backed by Piano Trio What are you mixing? Is it a song in which the vocals are the most important element? If so you might want to build the mix around the vocals. This means bringing the vocal channel up to nominal first (if your level setup procedure has been done properly this will be a good starting point), and then adding the other instruments. What you add next will depend on the type of material you are working with and your approach to it. If the vocals are backed by a piano trio and the song is a ballad, for example, you might want to bring in the piano next and get the vocal/piano relationship just right, then bring in the bass and drums to support the overall sound. Music First—Then Mix In any case, the music comes first. Think about the music and let it guide the mix, rather than trying to do things the other way around. What is the music saying and what instrument or technique is being used to drive the message? That’s where the focus of your mix should be. You’re using a hightech tool to do the mixing, but the mix itself is as much art as the music. Approach it that way and your mixes will become a vital part of the music. 5-2. Panning For Cleaner Mixes Not only does the way you pan your individual channels determine where the instruments appear in the stereo sound field, but it is also vital to give each instrument it’s own “space” so that it doesn’t conflict with other instruments. Unlike live sound in a real acoustic space, recorded stereo sound is basically 2-dimensional (although some types of surround sound are actually very 3-dimensional), and instruments positioned right on top of each other will often get in each other’s way—particularly if they are in the same frequency range or have a similar sound. Example2: Funky R&B Groove The approach will be totally different if you’re mixing a funky R&B number that centers on the groove. In this case most engineers will start with the drums, and then add the bass. The relationship between the drums and bass is extremely important to achieve the “drive” or groove the music rides on. Pay particular attention to how the bass works with the kick (bass drum). They should almost sound like a single instrument— with the kick supplying the punch and the bass supplying the pitch. Once again, there are no rules, but these are concepts that have been proven to work well. MG10/2 15 MG10_E.book Page 16 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Making the Most Of Your Mixer Spread them Out! Position your instruments so they have room to “breathe,” and connect in the most musical way with other instruments. Sometimes, however, you’ll want to deliberately pan sounds close together, or even right on top of one another, to emphasize their relationship. There are no hardand-fast rules. Normally (but this is not a rule), bass and lead vocals will be panned to center, as will the kick drum if the drums are in stereo. 5-3. To EQ Or Not To EQ In general: less is better. There are many situations in which you’ll need to cut certain frequency ranges, but use boost sparingly, and with caution. Proper use of EQ can eliminate interference between instruments in a mix and give the overall sound better definition. Bad EQ—and most commonly bad boost—just sounds terrible. Cut For a Cleaner Mix For example: cymbals have a lot of energy in the mid and low frequency ranges that you don’t really perceive as musical sound, but which can interfere with the clarity of other instruments in these ranges. You can basically turn the low EQ on cymbal channels all the way down without changing the way they sound in the mix. You’ll hear the difference, however, in the way the mix sounds more “spacious,” and instruments in the lower ranges will have better definition. Surprisingly enough, piano also has an incredibly powerful low end that can benefit from a bit of lowfrequency roll-off to let other instruments—notably drums and bass—do their jobs more effectively. Naturally you won’t want to do this if the piano is playing solo. The reverse applies to kick drums and bass guitars: you can often roll off the high end to create more space in the mix without compromising the character of the instruments. You’ll have to use your ears, though, because each instrument is different and sometimes you’ll want the “snap” of a bass guitar, for example, to come through. Boost With Caution If you’re trying to create special or unusual effects, go ahead and boost away as much as you like. But if you’re just trying to achieve a goodsounding mix, boost only in very small increments. A tiny boost in the midrange can give vocals more presence, or a touch of high boost can give certain instruments more “air.” Listen, and if things don’t sound clear and clean try using cut to remove frequencies that are cluttering up the mix rather than trying to boost the mix into clarity. 16 MG10/2 One of the biggest problems with too much boost is that it adds gain to the signal, increasing noise and potentially overloading the subsequent circuitry. 5-4. Ambience Judicious application of reverb and/or delay via the mixer’s AUX busses can really polish a mix, but too much can “wash out” the mix and reduce overall clarity. The way you set up your reverb sound can make a huge difference in the way it meshes with the mix. Reverb/Delay Time Different reverb/delay units offer different capabilities, but most offer some means of adjusting the reverb time. A little extra time spent matching the reverb time to the music being mixed can mean the difference between great and merely average sound. The reverb time you choose will depend to a great degree on the tempo and “density” of the mix at hand. Slower tempos and lower densities (i.e. sparser mixes with less sonic activity) can sound good with relatively long reverb times. But long reverb times can completely wash out a faster more active piece of music. Similar principles applies to delay. Reverb Tone How “bright” or “bassy” a reverb sound is also has a huge impact on the sound of your mix. Different reverb units offer different means of controlling this—balance between the high- and lowfrequency reverb times, simple EQ, and others. A reverb that is too bright will not only sound unnatural, but it will probably get in the way of delicate highs you want to come through in your mix. If you find yourself hearing more high-end reverb than mix detail, try reducing the brightness of the reverb sound. This will allow you to get full-bodied ambience without compromising clarity. Reverb Level It’s amazing how quickly your ears can lose perspective and fool you into believing that a totally washed-out mix sounds perfectly fine. To avoid falling into this trap start with reverb level all the way down, then gradually bring the reverb into the mix until you can just hear the difference. Any more than this normally becomes a “special effect.” You don’t want reverb to dominate the mix unless you are trying to create the effect of a band in a cave—which is a perfectly legitimate creative goal if that’s the sort of thing you’re aiming for.

Setting the knob to the ▼ position produces a flat frequency response. Turning the knob to the right boosts the corresponding frequency band, while turning to the left attenuates the band. The following table shows the EQ type, base frequency, and maximum cut/boost for each of the three bands. Band Type Base Frequency Maximum Cut/Boost HIGH Shelving 10 kHz MID Peaking 2.5 kHz LOW Shelving 100 Hz ±15 dB 5 AUX Controls Use the AUX control to send the channel’s signal to the AUX1 or AUX2 bus. 4 5 5 5 6 6 6 7 7 7 Turn the knob to the left of the ▼ mark to feed the signal to the AUX1 bus, or to the right of the ▼ to feed to the AUX2 bus. The volume of the feed increases as you move the knob away from the ▼ position. If you set the knob exactly to the ▼ position, the mixer will not send the signal to either of the AUX buses. Note that the signal to the AUX1 bus is a pre-fader signal, and is not affected by the channel fader. The signal to the AUX2 bus is a post-fader signal, and will always pass through the channel fader before moving to the bus. If you are using stereo channels, the signals from the L (odd) and R (even) channels are mixed and sent to the AUX1 and AUX2 buses. 1 GAIN Control Adjusts the input signal level. To get the best balance between the S/N ratio and the dynamic range, adjust the level so that the peak indicator (2) comes on only at about maximum input level. The –60 to –16 scale indicates the MIC input adjustment level. The –34 to +10 scale indicates the LINE input adjustment level. 2 PEAK Indicator Detects the peak level of the post-EQ signal, and lights up red when the level reaches 3 dB below the clipping level. For XLR-equipped stereo input channels (3/4 and 5/6), detects both post-EQ and post-mic-amp peak levels, and lights red if either of these levels reaches 3 dB below the clipping level. 3 Switch (High Pass Filter) This switch toggles the HPF on or off. To turn the HPF on, press the switch in ( ). The HPF cuts frequencies below 80 Hz. (But note that regardless of the switch setting, the mixer does not apply this HPF to the line inputs of stereo input channels.) 6 PAN Control (CHs 1 and 2) PAN/BAL Control (CHs 3/4 and 5/6) BAL Control (CHs 7/8 and 9/10) The PAN control determines the positioning of the channel’s signal on the Stereo L and R buses. The BAL control knob sets the balance between left and right channels. Signals into the L input (odd channel) feed to the Stereo L bus; signals into the R input (even channel) feed to the Stereo R bus. NOTE On channels where this knob provides both PAN and BAL controls: The knob operates as a PAN control if you are inputting through the MIC jack or into the L (MONO) input only, and operates as a BAL control if you are inputting into both L and R inputs. 7 Channel Fader Adjusts the output level of the signal being input to the channel. Use these faders to adjust the volume balance among the various channels. NOTE To reduce noise, set the fader knobs for unused channels all the way to the left (to the minimum setting). MG10/2 17 MG10.fm Page 18 Thursday, December 11, 2003 9:23 AM Front & Rear Panels 2 RETURN Control Master Control Section Adjusts the level of the signal sent from the RETURN jacks (L (MONO) and R) to the Stereo bus. NOTE If you supply a signal to the RETURN L (MONO) jack only, the mixer outputs the identical signal to both the L and R Stereo buses. 3 2TR IN Control Adjusts the level of the signal sent from the 2TR IN jack to the Stereo bus. 4 ST Master Fader 7 1 Adjusts the signal level to the ST OUT jacks. 5 C-R/PHONES Control Controls the level of the signal output to the PHONES jack and the C-R L and R jacks. 2 6 3 6 Level Meter This LED display shows the level of the signal fed to the Stereo bus. The “0” point corresponds to the standard output level. The indicator lights up red when the output hits the clipping level. 7 POWER Indicator This indicator lights up when the mixer’s power is ON. 4 5 1 PHANTOM +48 V Switch This switch toggles phantom power on and off. If you set the switch on, the mixer supplies power to all channels that provide XLR mic input jacks (CHs 1, 2, 3/4, 5/6). Set this switch on ( ) when using one or more condenser microphones. NOTE When this switch is on, the mixer supplies DC +48 V power to pins 2 and 3 of all XLR-type MIC INPUT jacks. • Be sure to leave this switch off ( ) when you are not using phantom power. Humming or damage may result if you connect to an unbalanced device or to an ungrounded transformer while this switch is on ( ). But note that the switch may be left on ( ) without problem when connecting to balanced dynamic microphones. • To avoid damage to speakers, be sure to turn off amplifiers (or powered speakers) before turning this switch on or off. 18 MG10/2 Front & Rear Panels Input/Output Section 1 3 2 • MIC jacks These are balanced XLR-type input jacks (1:Ground; 2:Hot; 3:Cold). • LINE jacks These are balanced phone-type input jacks. You can connect either balanced or unbalanced phone plugs to these jacks. Where an input channel provides both a MIC jack and a LINE jack, you may use either one of these jacks but you may not use both at the same time. Please connect to only one of these jacks on each channel. These are unbalanced phone-type input/output jacks. Each of these jacks is positioned between the equalizer and channel fader of the corresponding input channel. These jacks can be used to independently connect these channels to devices such as graphic equalizers, compressors, and noise filters. These are TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) phone jacks that support bidirectional operation. Connection to an INSERT I/O jack requires a special separately-sold insertion cable such as illustrated below. To the input jack of the external processor To the INSERT I/O jack Sleeve Tip Sleeve Ring Tip 6 8 7 0 3 Channel Input Jacks (CHs 7/8, 9/10) Each of these channel pairs can be used to input a stereo source signal. For each pair, the odd-numbered channel inputs the L signal, and the even-numbered channel inputs the R signal. Each channel offers a choice of two jack types: phone jack and RCA pin jack. All of these jacks are unbalanced. NOTE Where a channel provides both a phone jack and an RCA pin jack, you may use either one of these jacks but you may not use both at the same time. Please connect to only of these jacks on each channel. 4 2TR IN Jacks 2 INSERT I/O Jacks (CHs 1, 2) NOTE 5 9 1 Channel Input Jacks (CHs 1, 2, 3/4, 5/6) NOTE 4 These are unbalanced RCA-pin input jacks. Use these jacks when you want to connect a stereo sound source (CD, DAT, etc) directly to the mixer for monitoring. NOTE You can adjust the signal level using the 2TR IN control in the Master Control section. 5 REC OUT (L, R) Jacks These are unbalanced RCA-pin output jacks. These jacks output the mixed signal whose level is controlled by the ST Master Fader. You use these jacks, for example, to connect to an external recorder. 6 ST OUT (L, R) Jacks These are impedance-balanced phone-type output jacks. These jacks output the mixed signal whose level is controlled by the ST Master Fader. You use these jacks, for example, to connect to the power amplifier driving your main speakers. 7 C-R OUT Jacks To the output jack of the external processor The signal output from the INSERT I/O jacks is reverse-phased. This will not be a problem if connecting the jack to an effector. If using the jack to output to an external device, however, please be aware of possible phase conflicts with other signals. These are impedance-balanced phone-type output jacks. These jacks output the mixed signal whose level is controlled by the C-R/PHONES Control. You use these jacks, for example, to connect to the monitor system. MG10/2 19 Front & Rear Panels 8 SEND Jacks • AUX1, AUX2 These are impedance balanced phone-type output jacks. These jacks output the signals from AUX1 and AUX2, respectively. You use these jacks, for example, to connect to an effector or monitor system. 9 RETURN L (MONO), R Jacks These are unbalanced phone-type input jacks. The signal received by these jacks is sent to the Stereo bus. These jacks are typically used to receive a return signal from an external effector (reverb, delay, etc.). NOTE These jacks can also be used as an auxiliary stereo input. If you connect to the L(MONO) jack only, the mixer will recognize the signal as monaural and will propagate the identical signal on both L and R jacks. 0 PHONES Jack Connector for headphones.

Use only the PA-10 adaptor included with this mixer. Use of a different adaptor may result in fire or electric shock. 1 2 2 POWER Switch Use this switch to set mixer power to ON or STANDBY. Note that trace current continues to flow while the switch is in the STANDBY position. If you do not plan to use the mixer again for a long while, be sure to unplug the adaptor from the wall outlet. 20 MG10/2 MG10_E.book Page 21 Monday, May 26, 2003 1:52 PM Setting Up Setup Procedure (1) Before connecting to microphones and instruments, be sure that all devices are turned off. Also be sure that all of the channel controls and all of the controls in the Master Control section are turned to their minimum settings. (2) For each connection, connect one end of the cable to the relevant microphone or instrument and connect the other end to the appropriate LINE or MIC jack on the mixer. NOTE Where an input channel provides both a MIC INPUT jack and a LINE INPUT jack, you may use either one of these jacks but you may not use both at the same time. Please connect to only one of these jacks on each channel. (3) To avoid causing damage to speakers, power up the devices in the following order: Peripheral devices → mixer → power amps (or powered speakers). NOTE When shutting the system down, turn off the power in the opposite order: Power amps (powered speakers) → mixer → peripheral devices. Setup Examples Synthesizer Sound Source (CD, MD, DAT, cassette, video, etc.) Sound Source (CD, MD, DAT, cassette, video, etc.) MTR Master Recorder (MD, CD-R, DAT, etc.) Rhythm Machine Powered Monitor Speakers Microphone Guitar Effector Headphones MG10/2 21 Setting Up Mounting to a Microphone Stand • When using the mixer on a microphone stand, be sure to set the stand on a level and stable surface. Do not set up the stand in locations subject to vibrations or wind. • Note that mixer may be damaged if the stand should fall over. Attach the connection cables carefully so that the cables will not catch on the equipment and cause it to fall. For example: arrange the cables so that they run parallel with the microphone pole down to the base of the stand. • Leave ample free space around the stand. (1) Turn the mixer upside-down, and hold the microphone-stand adaptor (BMS-10A; sold separately) against the bottom of the mixer so that the screw holes are aligned (1). Screw the adaptor firmly into place with the two screws (2). 2 1 (2) Turn the mixer right-side up, and mount it onto your microphone stand. (3) Loosen the angle adjustment wingnut (1), adjust the mixer’s angle as desired (2), and then tighten the wingnut securely (3). 2 3 1 For more information, refer to the BMS-10A Owner’s Manual. 22 MG10/2 MG10.fm Page 23 Thursday, July 3, 2003 5:10 PM Appendix Specifications ■ General Specifications Frequency Characteristics (ST OUT) Total Harmonic Distortion (ST OUT) Hum and Noise1 Maximum Voltage Gain2 Monaural/Stereo Input Gain Control Monaural/Stereo High Pass Filter Crosstalk (1 kHz) Monaural/Stereo Input Channel Equalization: Max.
