MIXING THE INPUTS
You can connect input signals from up to six
audio sources, select any two, then mix the
two selected inputs so only one or both play
through your sound system.
Mixing requires three operations:
• Playing one input source
• Monitoring the next input source
• Switching to the next input source
You can play either of the two selected
sources first.
Notes:
• Ensure the slide volume control for the
other input channel source is set to 0.
•
CUE
allows you to select one source at a
time.

es the volume level of the source currently
