0. Volume Knobs
These knobs adjust the level of each channel’s
relative volume and gain – of the selected source(s)
[#] – to the main mix [#20].This allows signals
from the outside world to be adjusted to run through
each channel at optimal internal operating levels.
The volume levels range from – dB (o)
to +6.0 dB (max).
Lef knob = Ch.  (XLR or headset)
Middle knob = Ch. 2 (Line input or computer/USB)
Right knob = Ch. 3 (Phone)
. Input Selector Switches
These source switches determine which channel
inputs are active.
The activated channel  input may either be mic 
(XLR mic, lef side of Ch.  input selector switch down)
[#2] or mic 2 (/8" gaming headset, right side of Ch. 
input selector switch down) [#4].
The activated channel 2 input may either be aux 
(/8" instrument / line input jack, lef side of Ch. 2
input selector switch down) [#6] or USB (computer
connection, right side of Ch. 2 input selector switch
down) [#5].
The icon of the currently selected input will
illuminate white.
2. ContourFX Preset Selector
Rotate the ContourFX preset selector to choose
between seven dierent digital signal processors
(DSPs), such as EQ, compression, filtering and more.
The “audio quality enhancement” is chosen with this
knob, but the amount of processing is determined
by the level of the channel’s ContourFX Control Knob
[#3].
Only one ContourFX preset may be selected at a time.
We implore you to use trial-and-error to find the best
ContourFX preset for your application.
3. ContourFX Control Knobs
These knobs control how much the selected
preset [#2] aects the channel’s signal, thereby
“shaping” it. The FX level ranges from o (knob
fully counter-clockwise) to max (knob fully clockwise).
These control knobs are post-volume [#0],
but pre-StreamFX control knobs [#5].
4. StreamFX Preset Selector
Rotate the StreamFX preset selector to choose
between seven dierent, crazy signal-altering eects!
The eect is chosen with this knob, but the intensity
of the eect is determined by the level of the channel’s
StreamFX Control Knob [#5].
Only one StreamFX preset may be selected at a time.
We implore you to use trial-and-error to find the best
StreamFX preset for your application.
5. StreamFX Control Knobs
These knobs increase and decrease the channel’s
FX intensity of the selected preset [#4]. The FX
level ranges from o (knob fully counter-clockwise)
to max (knob fully clockwise). These control knobs
are post-volume [#0] and post-ContourFX control
knobs [#3].
