USER MANUAL
CONTROLS ON THE FRONT:
1. MIC INPUT JACK: Combo jack. Accepts either a balanced microphone with an
XLR connector or an unbalanced microphone with 1/4" mono jack. This input is
mainly used as DJ-microphone. The talk over does not affect the signal level of this
input.
2. 3-BAND TONE CONTROL: The frequency of both Mic1 & Mic2 can be controlled
over a +/-12dB range: Treble@13kHz ~ Middle@1kHz ~ Bass@70Hz.
3. CHANNEL FADERS: Used to control the level of each channel. These high quality
faders can be changed by the user, even when the mixer is working! (on another
channel of course ☺) For instructions, please read the "Changing the faders"
section.
4. MIC ON/OFF/TALK OVER SWITCH: Used to switch the microphones:
• OFF: Both mic1 & mic2 are switched off.
• ON: Both mic1 & mic2 are switched on.
• TALK OVER: mic1 & 2 are switched on; the sound level of all the other
channels will decrease to around -14dB.
5. MIC1 VOL: Used to adjust the input level of micro 1.
6. MIC2 VOL: Used to adjust the input level of micro 2.
7. CROSS FADER: Adjusts the curve of the cross fader:
• LEFT POSITION: you can make a nice, smooth cross fade between 2
channels. Excellent for beat mixing.
• RIGHT POSITION: you can make very sharp "switch like" cuts. Excellent for
scratching and other aggressive mixing techniques.
• POSITIONS INBETWEEN: you can adjust the cross fader curve to your
taste. Any curve between the 2 extremities can be selected.
8. FADER START ON/OFF SWITCH: When you have a compatible CD-player
connected to the fader control connectors, you can control its start/stop (re-cue)
functions with the cross fader of your SMX-1. With this switch you can turn the
fader start control on and off.
9. FADER START INDICATORS: During the Effect mix mode the indicators display
the output of sounds from the channels selected with the CROSS FADER ASSIGN
A OR B buttons.(10)
