1.INTRODUCTION 5.SPECIFICATIONS Congratulations! In purchasing the StudioMix 10 / StudioMix 12 series micing concole you have acquired a mixing console whose small size belies its versatility and audio performance. Mono inputs Microphone inputs Type XLR, electronically balanced, discrete input circuit Mic E.I.N. (20 Hz - 20 kHz) @ 0 Ω source resistance @ 50 Ω source resistance @ 150 Ω source resistance Frequency response -134 dB / 135.7 dB A-weighted -131 dB / 133.3 dB A-weighted -129 dB / 130.
Unbalanced use of 1/4"TRS connector ▲ Signal distribution: Summing of signals to the aux sends for effects processing and monitor mix, distribution to one or several recording tracks, power amp(s), control room and 2-track outputs. ▲ Mix: Setting the volume level, frequency distribution and positioning of the individual signals in the stereo field, level control of the total mix to match the recording devices/crossover/power amplifier(s). All other mixer functions can be included in this main function.
Please note that all unit must be properly grounded. For your own safety, you should never remove any ground connectors from electrical devices or power cables, or render them inoperative. 4.INSTALLATION 4.1 Mains connection AC POWER IN Connect the power supply to the 3-pin mains connector on the rear of the console. Use the AC adapter supplied to connect the console to the mains. The adapter complies with all applicable safety standards. Please use only the power supply unit provided with the console.
3.2 Live sound MIC Each mono input channel offers a balanced microphone input via the XLR connector and also features switchable +48 V phantom power supply for condenser microphones. The StudioMix preamps provide undistorted and noised-free gain as is typically known only from costly outboard preamps. CD player keyboard TAPE Please mute your play back system before you active the phantom power supply to prevent switch-on thumps being directed to your loudspeakers.
3. APPLICATION As the name suggests, the FX sends of the ME mixing consoles are intended to drive effects devices (reverb, delay, etc.) and are therefore configured post-fader. This means that the mix between dry signal and effect remains at the level determined by the channel’s aux send, irrespective of the level fader setting. If this were not the case, the effects signal of the channel would remain audible even when the fader is lowered to zero.
LINE IN 2.6 Rear Panel Section Each stereo channel has two balanced line level input on 1/4” connectors for left and right channels. If only the connector marked “L”(left) is used, the channel operates in mono. Stereo channels are designed to handle typical line level signals. Both inputs will also accept unbalanced connectors. COAXIAL COAXIAL OPTIC A stereo EQ is highly preferable to two mono equalizers.

When recording to digital recorders, the recorder s peak meter should not go into overload.
