Cautions
1. All operating instructions should be read before using this
equipment.
2. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, do not open the unit. There are
NO USER REPLACEABLE PARTS INSIDE. Please refer servicing to a
qualified service technician.
In the U.S.A., if you have any problems with this unit,
call 1-800-476-8633 for customer service. Do not return
equipment to your dealer.
3. Do not expose this unit to direct sunlight or to a heat source such as
a radiator or stove.
4. This unit should be cleaned only with a damp cloth. Avoid solvents
or other cleaning detergents.
5. When moving this equipment, it should be placed in its original carton
and packaging. This will reduce the risk of damage during transit.
6. DO NOT EXPOSE THIS UNIT TO RAIN OR MOISTURE.
7. DO NOT USE ANY SPRAY CLEANER OR LUBRICANT ON ANY
CONTROLS OR SWITCHES.
Connections
1. Before plugging in the power cord, make sure that the VOLTAGE
SELECTOR (38) switch is set to the correct voltage.
NOTE NOTE
NOTE NOTE NOTE: This product is double insulated and not intended
to be grounded.
2. Make sure that the POWER (1) switch is in the off position. The
POWER LED (2) will be off.
3. The KL-19 PRO is supplied with 2 sets of amp output jacks. The
BALANCED OUTPUT AMP (39) jacks are used to connect to your
main amplifier using standard XLR cables. We recommend using the
balanced amp outputs if the cables to your amp are 25 feet or more.
Balanced outputs have three separate conductors, two of which
are signal (positive and negative) and one shield (ground). Pin 1 is
ground (shield). Pin 2 is signal hot (positive). Pin 3 is signal cold
(negative). The OUTPUT AMP (40) jacks are unbalanced and used
to connect to your main amplifier. The OUTPUT REC (42) jacks can
be used to connect the mixer to the record input of your recorder
enabling you to record your mix. The OUTPUT BOOTH (41) jacks
allow you to hook up an additional amplifier.
4. The DJ MIC-1 (3) input (found on the front panel) accepts a 1/4" or
XLR connector and the DJ MIC-2 (54) input (found on the rear
panel) accepts only a 1/4" connector. Both accept balanced and
unbalanced microphones.
5. On the rear panel are 2 stereo PHONO/LINE (50, 51) inputs, 4 stereo
LINE (49, 48, 47, 46) inputs and 1 set of AUX (45) inputs. The
PHONO/LINE SWITCHES (52, 53) enable you to set the (50, 51)
inputs to Phono or Line. The phono inputs will accept only turntables
with a magnetic cartridge. A GROUND SCREW (55) for you to
ground your turntables is located on the rear panel. The stereo line
inputs will accept any line level input such as a CD player, a cassette
player, etc.
6. Headphones can be plugged into the front panel mounted
HEADPHONE (11) jack.
7. There are LOOP INPUTS (44) and LOOP OUTPUTS (43) located on
the rear panel. If you are using an outboard signal enhancer, you
can use the LOOP OUTPUTS (43) to send the signal to the device
and the LOOP INPUTS (44) to bring the signal back in to the mixer.
The unit comes with jumpers to be used with the loop inputs and
outputs. Keep the jumpers in the unit if you are not using the loop to
prevent interruptions in your music program by the accidental
touching of the loop button.
Using the Ground Lift Switch
Depending on your system configuration, sometimes applying the
ground will create a quieter signal path. Sometimes lifting the ground
can eliminate ground loops and hum to create a quieter signal path.
1. With the mixer on, listen to the system in idle mode (no signal
present) with the ground applied (the GROUND LIFT SWITCH (56) in
the left position).
2. Then turn the power off before moving the GROUND LIFT
SWITCH (56). Lift the ground by moving the GROUND LIFT SWITCH
to the right, turn the power back on and listen to determine which
position will provide a signal devoid of background noise and hum.
Keep the GROUND LIFT SWITCH in the ground position if the noise
level remains the same in either position.
CAUTION: DO NOT TERMINATE THE AC GROUND ON THE POWER MIXER
IN ANY WAY. TERMINATION OF THE AC GROUND CAN BE
HAZARDOUS.
Operation
1. POWER ON: Once you have made all the equipment connections to
your mixer, press the POWER SWITCH (1). The power will turn on
and the POWER LED (2) will glow RED.
2. CHANNEL I: The GAIN (12), BALANCE (13), HIGH (20), MID (19),
and LOW (18) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source.
Switch # (14) allows you to select the PHONO 1/LINE 1 (51), LINE 3
(49), LINE 4 (48), or the LINE 5 (47) input. The CHANNEL SLIDE (16)
controls the output level of this channel.
3. CHANNEL II: The GAIN (12), BALANCE (13), HIGH (20), MID (19),
and LOW (18) controls allow you to fully adjust the selected source.
Switch # (15) allows you to select the PHONO 2/LINE 2 (50), LINE 4
(48), LINE 5 (47) or the LINE 6 (46) input. The CHANNEL SLIDE (17)
controls the output level of this channel.
4. AUX CHANNEL: The AUX LEVEL (31) controls the AUX INPUT (45).
5. CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (21) allows the mixing
of one source into another. The left side of the CROSSFADER (21) is
channel I and the right side is channel II. The CROSSFADER (21) in
your unit is removable and if the need arises can be easily replaced.
Crossfader units are available in three varieties. Part # RF-45 (which
