3 Applications and Setting-up
With this 6-channel mixer, it is possible to mix
units with line output (e . g . CD player, tape deck,
tuner) and microphones (also phantom-pow-
ered) to a ster eo or mono output channel . Thus,
the MMX-602 / SW is suitable e . g . as pre-mixer
for a microphone group (chorus, drums, etc .) or
as mixer in PA systems .
The unit is provided for mounting into a
rack (482 mm / 19"), but it can also be used as
a table top unit . For the installation into a rack,
1 rack space = 44 .45 mm is required .
Note: if phantom-powered microphones are con-
nected, the phantom power must be switched on prior
.
to the rack installation (see chapter 4 .1) .

4 Connection of the Unit

Prior to making or changing any connections,
switch off the mixer and the units to be con-
nected .
For using the talkover function (see chapter 5 .3):
when connecting the channels make sure that
a signal on channel CH 1 or CH 2 can change
the volume of channels CH 2 to CH 6 or CH 3
to CH 6 . Example: CH 1 and CH 2 for the mi-
crophones of speaking or acting persons, the
remaining channels for the accompanying pro-
gramme or the background music .
1) Connect units with line level (e . g . CD
player, tape deck, tuner, etc .) to the six pairs
of phono jacks LINE (22):
white jack LEFT = left channel
red jack RIGHT = right channel
2) Connect microphones (balanced or un-
balanc ed) to the six XLR jacks MIC (23) . For
phantom-powered microphones, switch on
the phantom power – see chapter 4 .1 .
Caution! If the phantom power is switched
on, no unbalanced microphones must be
connected to the corresponding chan-
nels . Otherwise these microphones may be
damaged .
For disconnecting a microphone plug from
the mixer, press the button PUSH of the XLR
jack for unlocking .
