4.2.6 User panel
After two decades of manufacturing audio mixers, we find out that all customers have some
different manner to connect the mixer to the rest of their equipments. The user panel is here for
this. You can add any type of connector you need on this place. To do this, you must be a
qualified technician, or refer to an official SONOSAX service center or at the factory.
Look at the bloc diagram to find what you need, unscrew the user panel with a 2mm hexagonal
wrench and modify the panel for your connector. If you made any mistake, the user panel can
be reordered as SONOSAX part number: SX 951630.
