Booth Controls

The DJ’s local loudspeakers are fed from the console BOOTH output. The
booth mix is sourced from the master mix. It is derived post insert so that the
DJ hears exactly what is being fed to the house system. The DJ microphone

signal can be included or removed from the booth mix. The same mix feeds
the recording outputs.

Mic To Booth switch

This rear panel switch is

recessed to protect it from accidental operation once
set. Use a pen or similar pointed object to change its
setting. Set the switch out (flush with panel) to
include the microphone signal in the booth and

recording mix. Set the switch in (pressed) for a
music only mix.

Booth EQ

Two controls adjust the frequency response of the overall mix.

10kHz is a shelving HF control, 100Hz is a shelving LF control. Both provide
up to 6dB cut or boost. The response is flat at the centre positions. Where
possible use only small amounts of EQ, or none at all. The LF control is tuned

slightly higher than the master EQ to better match the performance of the
speakers typically used. The booth EQ only affect the booth output. It does
not affect the headphones or recording feeds.

Booth level

Controls the overall level of the booth mix. It ranges from fully

off to 0dB unity gain. For normal operation it should be used near to or at its
fully clockwise position.
