Front Panel - JB Systems CONTROL 5.2 Mode D'emploi

ENGLISH
• Due to safety reasons it is prohibited to make unauthorized modifications to the
unit.
INSTALLATION GUIDELINES:
• Install the unit in a well-ventilated location where it will not be exposed to high
temperatures or humidity.
• Placing and using the unit for long periods near heat-generating sources such as
amplifiers, spotlights, etc. will affect its performance and may even damage the
unit.
• The unit can be mounted in 19-inch racks. Attach the unit using the 4 screw holes
on the front panel. Be sure to use screws of the appropriate size. (screws not
provided)
Take care to minimize shocks and vibrations during transport.
• When installed in a booth or flight case, please make sure to have good ventilation
to improve heat evacuation of the unit.
• To avoid condensation to be formed inside, allow the unit to adapt to the
surrounding temperatures when bringing it into a warm room after transport.
Condense sometimes prevents the unit from working at full performance.
CLEANING THE MIXER:
Clean by wiping with a polished cloth slightly dipped with water. Avoid getting water
inside the unit. Do not use volatile liquids such as benzene or thinner which will
damage the unit.
CONNECTIONS
Except for microphones, headphone and zone outputs, all connections are cinch.
Use good quality cinch-cinch cables to prevent bad audio quality. (example: JB
Systems code: 2-0370)
For more information on connections, please refer to the next chapter.
Be sure to turn off the mixer before you make changes to the different connections.
In this manual we talk about "line inputs". This is a global name for inputs with a level
between 750mV and 2V. This includes tuners, videos, CD-players, etc.

FRONT PANEL

1. DJ MICRO input: The DJ micro can be connected to the XLR/Jack input on the
front plate or to the stereo jack on rear panel. This input is balanced but accepts
any kind of microphone equipped with an XLR or jack connector.
2. TALKOVER level: When you switch the talkover(3) on, you can adjust the
amount of muting on input channels 2 to 5. The more you turn to the right, the
more these channels are muted while talking through the DJ Micro(1).
3. TALKOVER switch: Use this switch to automatically mute the input channels 2 to
5 while you are talking through the DJ microphone. Use the zone selectors(4) to
choose on which output the talkover should work.
Attention: the talkover will only work on the zone you selected for the DJ Micro. The other zone
won't be affected.
4. ZONE switch: for every input channel you can choose to which zone (master) it
should be routed. This means that you can use this mixer to serve two different
rooms with completely different music!
Example:
You want channels 2&3 to be routed to Master A (room1). Channels 4&5 must
be routed to Master B (room2). But you want to be able to make
announcements in both rooms. This is what you should do:
• Select "zone A" on channels 2&3
• Select "zone B" on channels 4&5
• Select "zone A" and "zone B" on DJ Micro input.
Now you can do announcements in both rooms, while the music you play in
both rooms is completely different.
5. INPUT SELECTOR switch: On channels 2 and 3 you can choose between line
or balanced micro inputs.
6. INPUT SELECTOR switch: On channels 4 and 5 you can choose between line
or balanced micro inputs but you can also connect a turntable. (line/phono switch
on the back)
7. MONO/STEREO switch: used to switch Master A in mono or stereo mode.
8. BALANCE: used to adjust the balance between left and right output on Master A.
9. VU-meters: Used to monitor the level of the audio signals selected with the CUE
selector(13). With the channel faders you can change the input level of each
connected audio source. Make sure the levels do not exceed 0dB (or 100%). The
