12- LEVEL
This control will adjust the overall level of this channel. If you set the LEVEL control in max, it's usually a sign
that your GAIN is set too low. If set the LEVEL control in min, your GAIN may be too high.
10- PAN/BAL
Abbreviation of PANORAMA control for mono channels, for stereo channels,
always says, BALANCE control. You can adjust the stereo image of the signal
via this control. For mono MIC/LINE channels, keep PAN control in centre
position and your signal will be positioned in the middle of stage that is to
say the mono signal appears equally in both sides. Turn this control fully
counterclockwise and the signal will be present only on the left speaker and
vice-versa. For stereo channels, by rotating the BAL control, you can attenuate
the signal of left or right. It means if turn the control to left, the right channel
will be attenuated; if turned to right, the left channel will be attenuated.
11- PEAK LED
When this LED blinks, it warns you that you are reaching signal saturation and
possible distortion. From this LED you can adjust the correct level, not too strong
to cause distortion and not too weak to be lost in noise.

13- CD/TAPE INPUTS
These RCA jacks will assign the main out signal to a tape recorder or DAT. The
TAPE OUT level is affected by MAIN MIX control.
Use the Tape Input if you wish to listen to your mixer from a Taper Recorder or DAT. When the TAPE TO MIX
switch is pushed in, the signal coming from Taper Recorder will assign to main mix; when the CD/TAPE switch
which on the front panel is engaged in the signal can also be assigned to the CONTROL ROOM/PHONES
outputs. If you connect a mono device, you will need a "Y-splitter" RCA adapter.

to add the CD/TAPE signal to the main mix. The volume level is controlled by
MAIN MIX control.
17- FX TO CTRL ROOM Switch
Engage this switch to monitor the aux send signal in the Control Room/
Phones outputs.
This control is used to adjust the signal level going to the CONTROL ROOM/
PHONES outputs. And it won't affect the Main Mix output.
