INTRODUCTION Congratulations and thank-you for purchasing the latest addition to the growing Stanton family. Sporting a new attitude, and a fresh, modern look, the M.505 is a 5-channel mixer loaded with features and innovations giving club and mobile DJs a complete, powerful, yet simple tool to mix, create, and perform their best. Thoughtfully designed and engineered to give you the most intuitive and instinctual experience possible, the M.
DESCRIPTION OF FEATURES 1. Mic 1 Input: Combo connector to plug-in XLR or TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) 1/4” microphone cables. 2. Mic 1 Level: Controls the level of the microphone connected to (1) mic 1 Input. 3. Mic 1 EQ: Adjusts the high and low frequencies of the signal coming from mic 1. Note: Any changes made to EQ settings will affect the overall output level of the microphone. 4. Mic 1 Effect Send: Sends the mic 1 signal to outboard sound processors connected via the Send & Return circuit. 5.
DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS 10. Input Selection: Each input channel features several input sources. These selector switches let you toggle between the various sources. All channels have a phono and line input. Channels 1-2 also have an AUX input which can be switched from mic to line. 11. Input Channel Gain: Controls the input level of the selected audio source for each channel. Each gain control has an LED clip indicator. • TIP: Turn the gain knob until the LED flashes lightly to the beat of the music.
DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS 26. Master Output Pan: Pans the master output left to right. 27. Effects Master Return: Returns the wet signal from the outboard sound processor to the master output. 28. Master Output Level: Controls the overall output level of the mixer. 29. Level Meter Assign: Assigns the level meter to display the master output level (Master) or the pre-fader input level of any cued channels (PFL). 30.
DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS 38. Channel Trims: In similar fashion as the master trim, the input trims are used to attenuate the audio coming into each channel. Again, this is useful in club settings to restrict DJs who may be unfamiliar with the unit from overloading the inputs. 39. AUX Input Selector: Switches the AUX inputs between line and microphone level. 40. AUX Inputs: Combo connector to plug-in XLR or TRS (tip, ring, sleeve) 1/4” cables.
GETTING STARTED • Once your system is set up, make sure the MASTER (28) is turned all the way down. • Turn on the mixer and check your levels. Start with the channel faders (16) down, GAIN (11) and EQs (12) at 12 o’clock. Start the music. Adjust the GAIN until the LED indicator is blinking. You can also use the main LED meter to view the input level of each channel by setting the LEVEL METER ASSIGN (29) to PFL (Pre-Fader Listen) and pressing the CUE button on the channel you want to monitor.
