Configuració

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

1. Connexió d'alimentació: 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. Entrada de micròfon: 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. Entrades de línia: 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. Connexió de sortida: 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. Configuració inicial del volum: 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.
