This compact 5-channel audio mixer with USB
interface is suite d for univers al applicatio ns, e. g.
For audio record ing on the computer. The mono
inpu t c hannel all ows to connect a (phantom-
pow ered) microp hone; the stereo input channel
allows to connec t an audio so urce with lin e signal
leve l. In addition , the mixer is provided wit h
con nections for a recorder and headphones. The
mix e d signal is s ent to the out put via a 3.5 mm
jack and the USB port. It is al so possible t o use
the USB port as an input to tra nsfer audio data
from the computer to the mixe r. When connecting
the mixer to a computer, power is supplied via the
USB connection. When opera ting the mixer
with out a comput er, either us e a suitable p ower
sup ply unit with USB connect ion or operate the
mix e r via the inte grated rech ar geable lithi umion
batt ery. The batte ry is charge d when the mixer is
con nected to the power suppl y via the US B port.
This unit corr esponds to all relevant directives of
the EU and is the refor e marked with .

4 Audio Connections
Prio r to connecti on, always tu rn back the output
con trols MONITOR / PHONES (10) and M ASTER
(14) to 0 .
1) The input MIC IN (1) of the mono channel CH 1
allows to connect a microphone via XLR plug or
6. 3 mm plug. B oth the XLR jack and the 6.3 mm
jack of the com bined jack are balanced.
The XLR jack always supplies a 18 V p hantom
pow er and it thus suitable for a condenser
mic r ophone operated wi th this phantom p ower.
Do n ot connect a microphone with
unbalanced output via XLR plug; it my b e
D amaged by the phantom power
2) The input LIN E IN (2) of the stereo chan nel CH
2 allows to con nect an audio source wit h line
si gnal level (e. g. CD player) via RCA pl ugs: L =
left channel, R = right chan nel.
3) It is possible to use the RCA jacks TAPE IN (3)
and OUT (4) to connect a s tereo recorder:
-- Co nnect the recording outp ut of the reco rder to
the input TAPE IN.
-- Co nnect the recording inpu t of the recor der to
the output TAP E OUT;the o utput signal a dju-
sted with the MASTER contro l (14) is sent to this
outp ut.
How ever, it is als o possible to use the jack s for
othe r units with line signal lev el, e. g. to connect a
CD player or MP3 player to TAPE IN or to connect
an a mplifier to TAPE OUT.
4) The 3.5 mm jack MONITOR / PHONES (9)
a llows to connect stereo h eadphones
(i mpedance 16 ).
Thus, you wil l be able to m onitor the ou tput
signal adjuste d with the co ntr ol MASTE R (14)
o r the input signal of the ja cks TAPE IN (3) via
h eadphones.
5) At the stereo o utput MAIN OUT ( 7), the output
si gnal adjusted with the MASTER contr ol (14)
is present. Th is output allows to connec t e. G.
an amplifier or a second mixer via 3.5 mm plug.
6) W hen operatin g the mix er with a compu ter, it is
possible to use the USB po rt (5) for digi tal
output of the m ixed signal t o the compu ter and
fo r feeding dig ital audio da ta to the mix er. To
C onnect the port see c hapter 5.1.

5 Setting the Mixer into Operation
5.1 Oper ation with a computer
Note:
When op erating the m ixer with a computer, either
use the a udio software supplied w ith the
operatin g system or a n audio soft ware installe d
additiona lly.
Various programs for audio r eprod uction /
recordin g are availab le on the Inte rnet free of
charge.
1) Start t he computer. Connect the USB port (5 ) to
a USB connection on the compu ter via the USB
cable provided. Sw itch on the m ixer with the
switch POWER (8) [position ON ]. The L ED
ON/CH ARGE (6) lights up according to the
battery charge status (chapter 5.3).
The computer rec ognizes the USB interfa ce
of the mixer as an external devi ce for audio
input and audio ou tput, e. g. as USB Ear-
Microphone , depending on th e operating
sy stem. T herequir ed drivers (standard drive rs
of the operating system) are available on th e
Comp uter.
If not all driv ers required are available
on the computer, in stall them, e. g. via the
original CD of the o perating system. Restar t
the co mputer after installation, if necessary.
2) Open t he reproduction / record ing progr am and
make the required settings for audio reprod uc-
tion via the mixer o r audio recording from the
mixer ( user manu al of the prog ram). T hen
opera te the mixer a ccording to chapter 6.
If it is no t possible to record or re pr oduce any
sound, m ake sure to a ctivate the U SB interfac e
for audio input or aud io output in thesystem
settings o f the operat ing system of thecompute r.
If th e mixer is co nnected to a computer a nd
to any un its earthed v ia their mains cables (e. g .
amplifier s), there may be hum noi se due to
ground lo ops. To eli minate this no ise, connect the
mixer to t he correspo nding unit vi a a ground
isolator
