INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION
Follow the procedure below to have a signal processed for each channel:
1.
Turn down all Input and output gain controls.
2. Connect phantom powered microphones before switching on the +48 Volt phantom power switch.
3. Set the output level of your RMX508DFX at no more than 75%.
4. Set the MAIN level at no more than 50%. In this way you will be able to hear the signal by connecting a
pair of headphones or powered speakers.
5. Position EQ controls on the middle position.
6. Position panoramic (PAN) control on center position.
7. Increase the input gain properly for maintaining the good headroom and ideal dynamic range.
8. Depending on the actual application, slowly turn the input and output level controls to obtain the
maximum gain before distortion.
9. Repeat the same sequence for all input channels. The main LED meter may move up into the red LED
section. If this is the case, adjust the overall output level using the MAIN control to avoid this.
Notes:
y Microphones, monitors, amplifier, speakers, cables, etc. are not included.
y
To reduce electrical hum at high gain settings, keep the mixer's power supply away from your guitar cable and
the mixer's channel inputs.
y
To use an external effects rack unit, compressor, etc., use a Y-cable (1/4" stereo to two 1/4" mono) to connect
the AUX OUT to the left and right inputs your external device. Connect the outputs of your external device to
the mixers Stereo Return.
