Beyond the Basics
monitoring a second input source
Monitoring a second input source requires listening to an
input source, finding the desired audio section you want to
mix, and adjusting it’s sound level to match the volume of
the first input source (the one designated ASSIGN A).
1. Connect and put on headphones. You can listen to one
source through the headphones while the other source
plays over the sound system.
2. Set ASSIGN B to the second input source (1, 2, 3, correspond
to CH 1, CH 2, CH 3).
3. Press CUE (next to the second input source’s CH control).
4. Set PHONO 1/LINE 1, PHONO 2/LINE 2, or LINE 3/LINE 4 to the second
input source.
5. Play the second input source.
6. Adjust the second input source’s volume (CH) to it’s
preset signal level. If using headphones, adjust CUE LEVEL
(headphones volume) to a comfortable listening level.
7. When you reach the desired section of music to mix, stop
or pause play.
switching to a second input source
1. Play the second input source.
2. When you are ready to hear it play on your sound
system, slide CROSS FADER from A to B.
3. Slide CROSS FADER to the left to fade in ASSIGN A (source one)
and fade out ASSIGN B (source two). Slide CROSS FADER to the
right to fade in ASSIGN B and fade out ASSIGN A. Slide
CROSS FADER to the center to equally mix the two.
• Do not slide CROSS FADER
to the center when monitoring a
channel while another is playing. Instead, slide CROSS FADER
to the channel you are not monitoring. For example, to
monitor channel 1 (ASSIGN A) while channel 2 (ASSIGN B) is
playing, slide CROSS FADER to B.
