MixMode When to Use the Mono Setting
MixMode
allows
performers
to
adjust
the
blend
between
two
monitoring
mixes
(an
instrumental
mix
and
a
vocal
mix,
for
example).
When
using
MixMode:
In
some
cases,
only
a
single
input
on
the
transmitter
is
used
(if
the
mixer
only
features
a
single
monitor/auxiliary
output,
for
example).
To
ensure
that
audio
is
heard
on
both
the
left
and
right
earphones:
•
Each
mix
is
heard
through
both
the
left
and
right
earphones
•
Use
the
LEFT/CH1
input
on
the
transmitter
•
The
MixMode
knob
adjusts
the
volume
blend
between
the
two
monitor
mixes
(channel
1
and
channel
2)
•
Set
the
transmitter
to
MONO
•
Each
bodypack
receiver
can
dial
in a
unique
blend
to
meet
the
monitor-
ing
needs
of
each
performer
Note:
When
the
transmitter
is
set
to
mono
operation,
the
MixMode
knob
will
not
affect
the
sound.
Adjusting mix levels
In
this
scenario,

Troubleshooting
Problem
Solution
Distorted
Audio
.
Check the volume levels at the P3T transmitter and verify that the meter
is
not reaching the overload indicator
.
Check levels going
in
and out of the mixer.
If
audio
is
distorting anywhere
in
the signal chain,
it
will
be
distorted even
if
the PSM300 sys-
tern
is
not overloading.
.
Make sure batteries
in
the receiver are fresh
Verify that the cables are 1 /4 inch balanced.
If
an
unbalanced instrument or speaker cable is used, it may introduce noise.
Tip: To tell the difference, look at the connectors
on
the cable. The metal connector
on
a balanced cable has two plastic rings that divide
it into three separate sections (tip, ring, sleeve).
An
unbalanced cable only has a single plastic ring that divides
the
metal portion into two
sections (tip, sleeve).
Check that all cables are plugged all the way into the mixer and the P3T inputs. Sometimes, if a cable is not fully inserted, the signal will
be faint and distorted.
Make sure you are using the line-level outputs from the mixer.
If
you have a powered mixer, do not use the main speaker outputs,
as
they are amplified signals and will overload the P3T inputs.
