CONNECTION
Connect microphones to the MX34 via balanced XLR cables.
Stereo auxiliary sources such as the output from another mixer, AM/FM tuners,
CD Players, and MP3 players may be connected to the AUX IN via a stereo 1/8î
(3.5mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve plug.
Connect the STEREO OUT to the Input of your recording device also using a
stereo 1/8î (3.5mm) Tip-Ring-Sleeve plug.
If you wish to use AC power for the MX34, connect the Rolls PS27 12VDC power
supply.
OPERATION
Once your MX34 is properly connected, apply power by pressing in the POWER
button on the rear panel. The blue pwr LED on the front panel should light.
If you are using condenser type microphones, apply the phantom power by
moving the jumper(s) to the proper setting (see page 2). Test the microphone
levels by speaking into the microphones at a normal operating volume, and adjust
the Mic Level controls until you achieve desired levels. Adjust each Pan control to
place the signal in the stereo field.
Adjust the Headphone Level control for a comfortable listening volume.
For best results, we recommend recording a couple of test runs to ensure you
have proper levels set.
When the signal becomes weak and distorted, and the pwr LED dims, the
batteries will need replacing. See page 2; Battery Installation for details.
NOTE: ON CONNECTING A WIRELESS MIC TO THE AUX INPUT
DO NOT CONNECT A MONO PLUG TO
THE AUX IN OR STEREO OUTPUT.
DOING SO WILL RESULT IN SIGNAL
LOSS OR DAMAGE TO THE MX34.
If you need to connect a MONO signal (like the
output of a wireless microphone) to the AUX IN
of the MX34, you will need to make or purchase
a MONO TO STEREO cable.Shown here is a
diagram of this cableís wiring.
