7. DO NOT USE ANY SPRAY CLEANER OR LUBRICANT ON
ANY CONTROLS OR SWITCHES.
CONNECTIONS:
1. Before plugging this unit into any outlet, make sure that the
VOLTAGE SELECTION SWITCH (1) is set to the proper volt-
age. To change the selection, unscrew the hard plastic protec-
tive top with a Phillips head screw driver. Then use a flat head
screw driver to move the switch to the proper selection
(115V/230V).
2. Located on the rear panel is the POWER CORD (2). Before
plugging the POWER CORD (2) into a power outlet, make sure
the POWER SWITCH (64) located on the face panel is turned
off.
NOTE: LOCATED BY THE POWER CORD (2) JACK IS A 250V FUSE (67) TO
PROTECT AGAINST ELECTRICAL SURGES. TO REPLACE THE FUSE,
PLACE A FLAT HEAD SCREWDRIVER INTO THE GROOVE LOCATED INSIDE
THE POWER CORD JACK (2) AND POP THE FUSE OUT. REPLACE THE FUSE
WITH ONLY A 250V FUSE.
3. The MM-04 has 4 sets of outputs:
- The MASTER OUTPUT (4) jacks also connect to the main
amplifier with RCA cables.
- The BALANCED MASTER OUTPUT (3) jacks connect the
mixer to main amplifier using standard cables with 1/4" TRS
connectors. We recommend using balanced cables if the dis-
tance to your amp is 10 feet or more.
- The REC OUTPUT (5) jacks can be used to connect the mixer
to the record input of your recording unit, thus enabling you to
record your mix by connecting these units with RCA cables.
- The ZONE OUTPUT (6) jacks allow the connection of an addi-
tional amplifier with RCA cables.
4. Located on the rear panel are 2 PHONO(PH)/LINE(LN) con-
vertible RCA inputs (13, 10), and 4 LN RCA inputs (16, 14, 11,
7). The CONVERTIBLE RCA INPUTS (13, 10) for CHANNEL
(CH) 2 (35) & CH 3 (42) allow PH and LN level equipment to be
connected to the mixer. To adjust the CONVERTER
SWITCH(es) (9, 12), just flip the switch up to operate PH 1 or
PH 2. Flip the switch down to operate through LN 2 or LN 4. The
PHONO INPUTS (10,13) only accept turntables with a magnet-
ic cartridge. When using (a) turntable(s), you will need to ground
the RCA cable(s) by screwing in the grounding fork(s) to the
GROUNDING SCREW (65) located in the rear panel of the MM-
04 mixer. This is located in between the CONVERTER
SWITCHES (9, 12). The stereo LN INPUTS only accept line
level inputs such as a CD, DAT, MiniDisc, etc.
NOTE: WHEN USING A TURNTABLE, NOT ATTACHING A GROUND MAY
CAUSE A SYSTEM "HUM."
5. Headphones may be plugged into the face-plate located 1/4"
HEADPHONE JACK (58).
6. The MIC 1 (17) input (located on the face panel) is a combi-
nation XLR & ¼" connector. The MIC 2 (15) & MIC 3 (8) inputs
(in the rear panel) accept only 1/4" connectors. The MIC inputs
accept balanced and unbalanced connections.
