PRODUCING SOUND 

FROM THE TT1000M

Having ensured that all connections to the Mix2 and TT1000s are correct, and that a record (vinyl) is 

playing on the TT1000, you are now able to produce sound from the system.
Initially we suggest that the master level control (15, Pg 7) is adjusted  to approximately 10 o’clock 
(a third of its travel). This will give enough sound to be heard, but is not enough volume to damage 

speakers should an accidental overload result.
Please ensure that the crossfader (5, Pg 7) is in the central position.
Ensure that the input selector switches (3, Pg 7) & (8, Pg 7) are set to phono.

By pushing up the Channel 1 fader (4, Pg 7), music should now be heard coming from the speakers.
By pulling down Channel 1 fader (4, Pg 7), and by pushing up channel 2 fader (9, Pg 7), 
the sound of the other channel can now be heard.
The further the channel faders are pushed up, the louder the music source will be heard.

ADJUSTING THE 

TONE OF THE MUSIC

The Mix2 is equipped with 2 band tone equalisation on each music channel. These controls can be 

used for creative mixing once basic mixing techniques have been mastered.
Initially the tonal qualities of the music can be adjusted by rotating the bass and treble controls 
anti-clockwise to decrease these frequencies, or clockwise to increase them.
The tone of the music is generally down to individual taste, however we would not recommend that 

these controls are not used in the maximum position for prolonged lengths of time, especially at high 

volumes, or damage to associated equipment will probably result.
