Main characteristics This is a small, multi-functional eight-group buses audio mixer combined with a small/mid-sized S system and multi track recorder, etc. that supports recording systems. Equipped with 1 channels of mono input, channels of stereo input, and channels of auxiliary stereo input Despite its small size, it can provide support in various ways using a variety of input systems. Simple connection to multi-track recorders The TAPE IN connectors and GP/DIECT OUT connectors are equipped with channels enabling simple connection to multi-track recorders. Equipped with AUX channels AUX 1/ can be used as STEEO AUX of the pre-fader. AUX / can (simultaneously) switch between the pre and post faders. AUX/ can be switched to AUX/ using the fader. All output systems can be monitored AF is installed in all outputs. GOUP and AUX 1/ can be monitored in stereo. This (9U) size can be installed onto a standard 19 inch rack using the optional MU-11BK. Smooth operations are possible from recording to mixing down each track This enables all operations up until the mix down stage without changing connections by simply switching between the TAPE, MI, and DIECT buttons.

When connected to the connector, the input signal level can be controlled between 1 - dbu, and when connected to the INE connector, it can be controlled between +1 - dbu. In order to control the input signal at a suitable level, set the meter to VU operation, press the PF button of the channel to be controlled to display the signal level on the meter. In this state, turn the EVE control to control the signal so that VU display on the meter is lit sometimes. TAPE button This switches the signal input from the /INE connectors to the TAPE IN connectors. Using this function, sounds, such as those from a multi-track recorder connected to the TAPE IN connectors, can be input to each channel without changing connections. (Channels 1 - only) CF (ow Cut Filter) button This suppresses frequencies of Hz or lower from the channel signal at 1 db/oct (1 decibels per octave) when it is on. This function is very effective for removing touch noise that occurs when a microphone is being held, and blow noise caused by breathing. HIGH (High equalizer) level control This varies the high equalizer level between 1 - +1 db. The equalizer is a 1 khz shelving type. MID (Mid equalizer) frequency control This varies the central frequencies of the mid equalizer between 1 Hz - 1 khz. MID (Mid equalizer) level control This varies the mid equalizer level between 1 db - +1 db. The equalizer is a peaking type. OW (ow equalizer) level control This varies the low equalizer level between 1 db - +1 db. The equalizer is a Hz peaking type. -1-1 - - DIECT - - DIECT @

When turned to the maximum in either direction, the output level is increased by + db.!º AUX control This controls the level that is sent to the AUX 1/ buses. This AUX is a pre-fader (splitting the signal before the channel fader). It is used to create a separate balance mix and stereo monitor, as it does not depend on the position of the channel fader.! MI button This changes the function of the AUX 1/. When it is off, the AUX PAN control and AUX control operate as normal AUX. When it is on, the input signals from the TAPE IN connectors (or /INE connectors if the TAPE button is turned on) are sent to the AUX 1/ buses. Sounds, such as those from a multi-track recorder that has been connected to the TAPE connectors, can be monitored through the AUX 1/ output using this function. (MO INPUT 1 - only)! AUX and controls These control the levels that are sent to the AUX and buses.

When turned to the maximum in either direction, the output level is increased by + db.! PF button When turned on, the signals before they pass through the channel fader are routed to the PHES connector and the MITO connectors, while displaying the level on the meter. When PF buttons for a number of channels are pressed simultaneously, a mixed signal is routed. In this case, signals from channels whose AF button is turned on are not output.! PEAK indicator This is lit up whenever the signal level, after passing through the equalizer, is within db of the maximum level. When this ED is lit, the signal is excessive, and must be controlled using the EVE control.
