A Tour of the iMultiMix USB 2

Rear of the Mixer
Here’s what you’ll find at the rear of the mixer.
Power Input
Here’s where you plug in your mixer’s external power supply.
You should always connect your power supply to the mixer before
you plug the power supply into an electrical outlet.
Power Supply Unit
This unit provides 18.5 VAC at 1000 mA, more than enough to
keep your iMultiMix 8 USB running smoothly. As with nearly all
power supply units, this one tends to get warm when left on for a
while. This is perfectly normal.
Power On
Another easy one. Switch this one on and your mixer has power.
Switch it off and it doesn’t. Make sure that all master output knobs
are turned all the way down when powering your mixer up or
down.
Phantom On
This switch activates and deactivates the phantom power
described in “Mic Inputs (Channels 1 – 4),” page 9. This switch
controls phantom power for all four mic inputs.
USB port
This port allows you to connect the Multimix to a computer for 2-
way, 16-bit stereo digital audio communication.
The POWER INPUT is built
to accept only the power
supply unit provided with
your iMultiMix 8 USB, or an
AC power supply that has the
same specs. Others probably
will not work.
As we said earlier, it’s very
important that you plug in
your microphones and mute
your system before you turn
on phantom power.
