SETUP DIAGRAM C SPEAKER CABINET BACK Speaker Input Jack (Y) This jack is used to connect the Speaker Output Jack (R or W) to the speaker. This should be connected with a good quality speaker cable.
Setup Instructions: Making Connections: • Using the Profile speaker cables, or a set of your own, connect an end of each cable into the speaker outputs of the mixer (R & W). Then connect the opposite end of each cable to the appropriate speaker cabinet input (Y). Hint: For ease of use, connect the right output jack (R) to the speaker cabinet on the right side of the mixer front and connect the left output jack (W) to the speaker cabinet on the left side of the mixer front.
About the Master Section The master section gives you final control over the sum of what is happening in the input section. In other words, the adjustments you make in this section will affect all channels evenly. Sub Volume Control (1) When using a powered subwoofer that is connected into the sub output jack (U), this control becomes a volume control for the subwoofer. The output signal level can be adjusted by + or 12dB.
About the Input Section The input section is where you connect microphones, guitars, drum machines, keyboards, and other audio sources. Effects Control (A) This control is used to send the signal from the individual channel to the digital effects. The effects volume control (6) adjusts the overall volume for this control. Monitor Control (B) This control is used to send the signal from the individual channel to the monitor output jack (T).
Methods for connecting inputs to channels Method 1: Microphone using XLR balanced inputs This is the most popular method for connecting microphones. It works with both dynamic and condenser low impedance microphones. Acoustic guitars that have XLR balanced outputs can also use this input. Because of the phantom power on these inputs, a battery may not be needed. Check the 2 1 3 manufacturer of your instrument for use without a battery.
About the Input Section (Cont.) Combination Input Jack (M) This jack functions the same as the other combination jacks (L) except the 1/4” input can be stereo, mono, or hi-Z mono. String instruments, such as acoustic guitar that have a passive pickup (nonbattery powered) are typically hi-z mono and will work best in this channel.
About the Output Section The output section (mixer back) is where you connect your speakers, recording equipment, and any other external sound conditioning device. Left Preamp Output (N) This jack can be used to connect the left output to an external audio device such as a power amp. This output is line level. Right Preamp Output (O) This jack can be used to connect the right output to an external audio device such as a power amp. This output is line level.
FAQ Frequently Asked Questions: 1. How many speakers can I use with the Profile Two? ANSWER: Most speaker cabinets today are 8-ohms. For the sake of this question we will assume this is the case. You can use a total of four 8-ohm speakers with the Profile Two: Two for the Left power-amp and two for the Right power-amp. The Profile Two cabinets are 4-ohms each. DO NOT connect more than one of these cabinets per power-amp. DO NOT plug more than two 8-ohm speakers or one 4-ohm speaker into each poweramp. 7.
The Profile System Two mixer and speakers have been specifically designed and optimized for use together as a package. The mixer has been designed to deliver maximum power with a 4-ohm load on each channel. If you choose to use different speakers with the mixer, refer to the chart below for loading information.
