Fender Musical Instruments 7975 North Hayden Road, Scottsdale, Arizona 85258 U.S.A. Fender knows the importance of sound reinforcement. From the simple box-top mixer to today's professional touring concert systems, the need to communicate, to make the connection between the performer and the audience is foremost in Fender's mind. Perhaps no other single piece of gear can make or break your band's sound. You see, your sound system is more than just a combination of dials, wires and speakers.
THE FENDER LTB POR TABLE POWERED MIXER INTRODUCTION The LTB: an 80 watt professional powered mixer from your friends at Fender® Pro Audio. We are sure you will find your new LTB sound system to be both a unique and effective sound reinforcement product, providing years of trouble-free service. With ease of setup in mind, the integrated mixer/amplifier design combined with the full-range LTB-10 speaker enclosures makes your LTB a versatile, yet simple to operate sound system.
INPUT CHANNEL CONTROL FUNCTIONS A B C D E A. EQ - Adjusts the tone / frequency boost or cut of its respective channel. When the tone control is set at the 12 o’clock (notched) position, the channel is “flat” with no frequencies cut or boosted. As the dial is rotated clockwise, the treble response increases. Likewise, as the dial is rotated counterclockwise the treble response decreases. D. HIGH Z - Plug your high impedance microphones, keyboards, drum machines, outboard effects, etc. in here.
MASTER CONTROL PANEL FUNCTIONS B A F C G D E F. POWER LED - This LED illuminates when the LTB is on. G. POWER SWITCH - Turns the AC power ON and OFF. H I J H. MAIN - This 1/4 inch, TS, unbalanced, line level output is designed to feed the LTB’s main bus signal to an external power amplifier or main house mixer. K A. LOW - Adjusts the amount of low frequency boost or cut in the LTB.

GROUNDING AND HUMS TROUBLESHOOTING Ground loops are one of the most common causes of hum and buzz in sound reinforcement systems and other audio products. A ground loop usually occurs if the separate pieces of equipment are plugged into different AC circuits. Also, if the audio wiring is placed too close to the power cords, hums or buzzes can bleed into the system. Still, improperly maintained power and audio cables are yet another cause of bothersome noise.
