Stanton RM.404 - Manual (Page 17)

This is a typical setup you’ll find in many nightclubs: 2 turntables, 2 CD play-
ers, plus a microphone for the DJ. Here’s how you would set up your equip-
ment with the RM.404:
1. Be sure all equipment is powered “OFF” and all of the RM.404’s Channel
faders and Level knobs are at minimum volume.
2. Connect the turntables to the Phono inputs of Channels 1and 4. Be sure
the rear-panel toggle switch for Channel 4 is set to “PH2” or you won’t hear
anything. To avoid hum, don’t forget to connect the ground wires to the
grounding terminals.
3. Connect the CD players to the inputs of Channels 2 and 3.(if your CD play-
er supports fader start connect applicable cables)
4. If you want to use the crossfader, set Channels 1 and 2 to “A” and
Channels 3 and 4 to “B”. Otherwise, set them all to “Bypass”.
5. Depending on the type of cable you have, connect your microphone to the
Mic 1 (1/4” / XLR) input.
6. Connect the Master Output jacks to the club’s power amp, EQ or
crossover. Then connect your monitor amp to the Booth output. If you have a
separate amp for a particular area of the club, connect this amp to the Zone
outputs.
7. Set the Input Selectors on the front panel to the appropriate inputs for each
channel.
8. Power everything up and carefully adjust the input levels using the Input
Gain knobs and Mic Level knob.
9. Slowly raise the Channel faders, Master fader, Booth level, Zone level and
Mic level as appropriate and start mixing!
