SFX-10 Video Mixer Basic Operations

Audio Mixer
The audio mixer controls permit you to mix and control the input and output levels of the audio
tracks during your editing session. In addition to the audio tracks that accompany your video inputs,
you can add audio from a microphone and an auxiliary source. These additional inputs allow you to
do voice-overs and add music tracks easily and efficiently.
Overview: Audio tracks for Input #1 and Input #2 are routed through the audio mixer controls. If Input #1 and #2
are being used, you can use the auxiliary input as a third audio track.
Step 1 The far left-hand slide control mixes the audio
tracks from Input #1 and Input #2. Move the
slide from top to bottom to dissolve from Input #1
to Input #2.
Step 2 The Max/Min slide controls the overall volume
level output of the mix between Inputs #1 and #2.
Step 3 The AUX slide control controls the volume level
of the audio track routed through the auxiliary
input.
Step 4 The MIC slide control controls the volume level of
the audio track routed through the microphone
input.
Step 5 The MASTER OUTPUT slide control controls the
overall volume level of the mixed audio tracks of
all the inputs. This is the volume level control for
your output to tape.
TIP: The audio level is displayed by the Audio Level
meter, located in the top right hand corner of the
SFX-10 (shown at right). Use this meter to
monitor the master output volume level.
Occasional peaks in the red zone (above 0 dB) are
okay
