Настройка

Follow these steps to correctly set up your Samson S-Mix compact mixer:

  1. Падключэнне сілкавання: Connect the supplied 18V AC power adapter to the DC input jack on the S-Mix. Plug the adapter into a standard electrical outlet. Ensure the power source matches the adapter's specifications.
  2. Мікрафонны ўваход: For a balanced microphone, connect an XLR cable from your microphone to the XLR input on the S-Mix. If using a condenser microphone, ensure phantom power is enabled (refer to the device's specific instructions if an external phantom power source is required, as the S-Mix provides phantom power directly). Adjust the microphone's volume using its dedicated control knob.
  3. Лінейныя ўваходы: Connect line-level devices (e.g., instruments, audio players) to the two 1/4-inch Super-Z high impedance line inputs. Use standard 1/4-inch TS or TRS cables. Adjust the volume for these inputs using their respective control knobs.
  4. Stereo RCA Input: For stereo audio sources (e.g., CD players, media players), connect RCA cables to the stereo RCA input jacks. Adjust the volume using the dedicated stereo channel control.
  5. Выходнае злучэнне: Connect the 1/4-inch stereo outputs of the S-Mix to your amplifier, powered speakers, or recording device using 1/4-inch TS or TRS cables. Ensure the output device is powered off before making connections.
  6. Пачатковыя налады гучнасці: Before powering on, set all volume controls on the S-Mix to their minimum position. Gradually increase volumes after all connections are made and devices are powered on.

Інструкцыя па эксплуатацыі

The Samson S-Mix provides intuitive controls for managing your audio signals:

  • Individual Volume Controls: Each input channel (microphone, line 1, line 2, stereo RCA) has its own rotary volume knob. Rotate clockwise to increase volume and counter-clockwise to decrease it.
  • Master Output Level: While the S-Mix does not feature a single master output knob, the overall output level is a sum of the individual channel volumes. Adjust each channel's volume to achieve the desired mix and overall output level for your connected ampпад'ёмнік або запісвае прылада.
  • Фантомная магутнасць: The XLR microphone input provides phantom power for condenser microphones. No separate switch is required; it is always active when a microphone is connected to the XLR input.
  • Маніторынг сігналу: Listen to the output through your connected speakers or headphones to monitor the audio mix. Adjust individual channel volumes as needed to balance the sound.
