progression of colors from green to yellow to red thus you can easily identify
levels at a quick glance.
ADDITIONAL FEATURES:
A. SLATE MICROPHONE
The Mjr Mixer is equipped with a slate microphone. This microphone is activated
when the front panel “slate” momentary push button switch is pressed. The slate
microphone allows the operator to put voice slates (notes) on tape for later
reference. These are normally notes for editing tape. A level adjustment trim pot
is located on the bottom panel of the Mjr Mixer. Turning the adjustment
clockwise will increase the slate microphone level. Turning the adjustment
counter-clockwise will lower the level.
B. REFERENCE OSCILLATOR
The Mjr Mixer is equipped with a reference oscillator used for setting of levels
between the mixer and recorder. This known reference level is also used when
transferring tape during editing. The Mjr’s oscillator operates at 440Hz at “0” on
the meters. When setting up typical Betacams with LCD bar graph meters you
simply adjust the Betacams inputs until “0” is reached. From that point on, you
can monitor levels from the mixer only. We have chosen 440Hz simply because
it is much more pleasant in your headphones than the typical 1Khz used by other
manufactures. We have used 440 Hz on our mixers for many years. The
reference oscillator is equipped with a level adjustment trim pot located inside
mixer. This adjustment is factory calibrated and should not be adjusted without
proper measurement equipment.
C. BATTERY MONITORING
The Mjr Mixer is equipped with a two LED battery indicator located on the front
panel of the mixer. When the mixer is turned on, the green LED will light when
the battery is in good condition. When the battery needs to be replaced, the
Green LED will switch off and the Red LED will switch on alerting the operator to
replace the battery at his or her earliest convenience.
POWERING:
A. BATTERY POWER
The PSC Mjr Mixer is the first compact ENG mixer with 48 Phantom power to
offer the ability to be powered from a single 9V alkaline battery. This feature
provides a convenient way of powering the mixer without added size or weight.
Only high quality, fresh alkaline 9V batteries should be used to power the Mjr
mixer.
