  INSTALLATION TIPS

1- Speakers should be placed in a position that allows for unobstructe sound projection. In many
 instances is beneficial for speakers to be elevated on tripod stands to achieve maximum 
dispersion and reach.

2- Use professional advice or service when hanging and installing speakers. Please  take 
precautions to secure them to prevent them from falling and hurting someone. Care should be 
taken as to not damage the cabinet or its components. Please comply with all pertinent 
Regulations.

3- Use quality cables. Using quality cables will ensure the best possible sound.

  INSTALLATION TIPS

29- USB interface 

The USB interface provides a digital audio connection to PC/MAC.

USB use

With this interface you can use the MX.6USB/10USB/12USB like sound card for recording 
at 16bit/44.1kHz and playback audio file(wave, aiff, mp3 etc.) With Windows and Macintosh 
computers. Use the computer built-in audio recorder or use dedicated Digital Audio Work
station software (DAW) to record and playback CD-quality audio within your computer. For 
connection MX.6USB/10USB/12USB to computer TOPP PRO suggested a standard A 
MALE/B MALE USB cable TOPP PRO recommend that you do not use hubs and other 
extenders, that often cause glitches and other problems. The USB port sends the MAIN MIX
left and right signals to the computer. The USB port receives a stereo audio stream from the
computer and assigns it to the 2-TRACK INPUT left and right channels of your mixer.

Note: 

if a device is connected to the 2-TRACK INPUT, the signal from this device is merged

with the signal from the computer.
To ensure that the 

 is recognized correctly by your computer, always 

turn the mixer on a few seconds before inserting the USB cable into the computer. When 
powering up both your computer and the 

, turn on the mixer first and

 the computer second. When powering down your computer and the 

turn off  the computer first. Wait to turn off the mixer until the computer has  completed the 
shutdown process.

4- For best results match the speakers to a good amplifier that matches the wattage and 
 impedance of your speakers. Proper amplification power results in good quality audio
 and longe r componen t life. Check out the power requirement for your cabinet.

5- Avoid pointing a microphone directly at an amplified speaker doing so, could cause 
feedback possibly damaging speaker components and your hearing.

Enjoy the sound!
