 CONTROL ELEMENTS

22- METERS 

This stereo LED meter will indicate the level of the overall output signal.

23- MAIN MIX 

This control sets the level of main mix signals sent to the Main Outputs, 
Tape Outputs, CONTROL 

PHONES, and LED  Display. On the 

MX.5 and MX.6 USB, this is a rotary control; on 

MX.10 USB and 

MX.12 USB, this is a fader. 

 

 

 

  

 

  

 

 

Note:

When connecting a speaker to the speaker output jacks, please

   

 

    

  

  

pay more attention to the level setting for avoiding damaging the speaker.

 

  

  

 

 

      

Generally speaking, the faders will be positioned between 0 dB and the +5 dB.

25- CTRL ROOM OUT 

26- AUX SEND OUT 

27- PHONES OUTPUT 

These 1/4" TRS are used to assign the control room signal to the studio monitor speakers. 
They can also be used to provide another main mix output, or to monitor the CD/TAPE 
Inputs (when engage the TAPE TO CTRL RM/PHONES switch), or to monitor the aux 
send signal (MX.10 USB/MX.12 USB only with FX TO CTRL ROOM switch is engaged)

These 1/4" TRS are used to send out the signal from the AUX bus to external device such 
as effects equipment. Each channel has an AUX SEND control knob that adjusts how much 
of that channel's signal appear at each of the output. This output is affected by the channel 
LEVEL, but not MAIN MIX control.    

 

This jack is used to send out the mix signal to a pair of headphones, and the signal is the same as 
the CTRL RM OUTS outputs. The level is controlled by the CTRL ROOM/PHONES knob. You can 
listen to the Main Mix, the CD/TAPE, or the AUX SEND (MX.10USB/MX 12USB ) depending upon 
the position of the TAPE TO CTRL RM/PHONES switch and FX TO CTRL ROOM switch. 

24- MAIN OUT 

These 1/4" TRS jacks represent the end of the mixer chain, where your fully mixed stereo 
signal ent ers the real w orld. Connect these outputs to the inputs of your amplifiers, powered 
speakers, or serial effects processor (graphic equalizer, for example).
