VERY IMPORTANT – MIXER CARE  
Please read this entire manual before connecting this unit to your system  
For optimum performance:  
All the slide faders are user replaceable items and subject to wear. Excessive force can wear out the fader quickly. This is not a  
warranted item.  
Never use spray cleaners on the slide controls. Residues cause excessive dirt build-up and this will void your warranty. In  
normal use slide controls can last for many years. If they malfunction (usually because of a dirty or dusty environment) consult  
a professional technician.  
Always make sure that AC power is OFF while making any connections.  
Use appropriate cables throughout your system. Do not use excessively long cables (i.e. over 50ft/14m) Be sure plugs and jacks  
are tightly mated. Loose connections can cause hum, noise or intermittents that could easily damage your speakers. Make the  
input and output connections with readily available low-capacitance stereo cables. Quality cable makes a big difference in audio  
fidelity and punch. See your Numark dealer or an electronics or audio specialist store if you are not sure which cables to get.  
Never attempt to make any adjustments or repairs other than those described in this manual. Take the unit to your dealer or to  
an authorized Numark Service Center.  
ALWAYS remember: “TURN AMPS ON LAST AND OFF FIRST”. Begin with master faders or volume controls on minimum and the  
amplifier gain/input control(s) down. Wait 8 to 10 seconds before turning up the volume. This prevents transients which may  
cause severe speaker damage.  
Use restraint when operating controls. Try to move them slowly. Rapid adjustments could damage speakers due to amplifier  
clipping.  
Avoid amplifier “clipping” at all costs: this occurs when the red LEDs (usually on the front panel of most professional power  
amplifiers) start flashing. “Clipping” is when the power amplifier is distorting and working beyond it’s limits. Amplifier distortion  
is THE major cause of speaker failure.  
To prevent fire or shock hazard, do not expose the unit to rain or moisture. Never place cans of beer, soda, glasses of water or  
anything wet on top of the unit!  
The headphone outputs can be set to levels which can cause damage to your ears. Use caution.

Microphone - Auxiliary Input Controls  
1. “MIC – AUX GAIN” (Microphone - Auxiliary Gain): This knob adjusts the volume of both the main microphone and  
auxiliary inputs. The gain should be turned completely to off when connecting and disconnecting equipment. If both inputs  
are used simultaneously the inputs will be mixed together.  
2. “Treble” (Microphone - Auxiliary High EQ): This knob adjusts the high-tone input sound of the microphone.  
3. “Bass” (Microphone - Auxiliary Low EQ): This knob adjusts the low-tone input sound of the microphone.  
4. “Microphone” (Quarter Inch Microphone Input): One microphone can be connected to this Quarter Inch input terminal.  
Primary Mixing Channel Controls  
5. “Gain Knob” (Input Level Trim): This rotary control adjusts the pre-fader input signal levels of the inputs. This level  
adjustment should be used with the pre-fader meter to match levels of both input channels.  
6. “Filter Mode Button” (Control Mode Select): This button toggles the control knob mode between EQ and Filter. When  
the indicator light is on, the three knobs control a classic filter (Type, Resonance, Frequency). When the indicator light is  
off, the 3 tone knobs control a 3-band EQ (Bass, Mid, Treble).  
WARNING: When switching mode the user should take care when setting and releasing levels.  
Excessive output can occur if levels or effects are released when set too high. This could lead to  
equipment or hearing damage.  
Note: If the user pushes and holds this button, the parameter of the knobs will be held constant until released. In  
this way the user can pre-set the knobs to a desired effect position without the change being heard until the button  
is released.  
7. Control Knobs: These knobs control the post gain and pre line fader audio signal. Their function is determined by the  
“Filter Mode Button” position  
EQ Mode  
“Treble” (Input Level High EQ): This rotary control adjusts the high-tone sound of the inputs. Turning the knob  
completely to the right increases the level, turning the knob completely to the left decreases the level to off. This  
music “KILL” control allows for unique mixing styles.  
“Middle” (Input Level Midrange EQ): This rotary control adjusts the high-tone sound of the inputs. Turning the  
knob completely to the right increases the level, turning the knob completely to the left decreases the level to off.  
This music “KILL” control allows for unique mixing styles.  
“Bass” (Input Level Low EQ): This rotary control adjusts the high-tone sound of the inputs. Turning the knob  
completely to the right increases the level, turning the knob completely to the left decreases the level to off. This  
music “KILL” control allows for unique mixing styles.  
Filter mode  
“Type Knob” (Filter Select): This rotary control continuously fades between Low-Pass, Band-Pass & High-Pass  
Filter.  
“Frequency Knob”(Frequency Select): This rotary control sweeps between 60-20kHz center frequency.  
“Resonance Knob” (Intensity Control): This rotary control controls the resonant peak at the center frequency.  
8. “Phono(AUX)/Line Switch” (Input Selector Switch): These two-position toggles select what input source is engaged  
among the connected units (see “Connection Diagram” for details on connecting sources.) These toggles can be rotated  
to suit your mixing preferences by removing the top Mixer Panel and adjusting their position.  
9. “Input Level Slider” (VCA Fader): These slide faders adjust the level for CH-1 or CH-2 respectively.  
Note: This fader is user replaceable if it should ever wear out. Simply remove the facepanel and then remove the screws  
holding it in position. Replace the fader with a quality authorized replacement from your local Numark retailer.  
10. “Slope Knob” (Input Fader Curve Style Control): The position of this knob determines the rate of volume level increase  
of the fader. When turned to the left, the fader will gradually fade in the volume as it is engaged. When it is turned all the  
way to the right, a very sharp fade of the volume will occur immediately when the fader is engaged.  
11. “Reverse Button” (Input Fader Reverse Control): Activation of this switch can reverse the fader direction.

REAR PANEL FEATURES  
Note: It is recommended that the mixer be turned off before connecting and disconnecting any  
sources to the inputs of the mixer.  
1. “AUX-SESSION INPUT” (Auxiliary Input): The line level input is used to connect the output from an external mixers or  
additional CD players and other line level devices such as samplers, tape decks, keyboards, and line output turntables. This  
input is mixed with any connected microphone.  
2. “Phono/AUX Inputs” (Turntable Input Connection): The Phono input is used for connecting your turntables or other  
devices. Input source is determined by the PHONO/LINE switch on the rear panel.  
3. “Phono/Line source switch”: This switch activates and deactivates the sensitive RIAA phono preamplifiers. Only  
turntables with phono level output should be assigned when the switch is in the phono position. Some  
turntables offer line level output. To use these turntables and other line devices like CD players, switch the input to Line.  
4.  
“GND” (Grounding Lug): This screw connector should be used to secure any devices connected to the mixer that need to  
be grounded. Many turntables that are connected to the mixer will need to have a ground wire that is designed to connect  
to the mixer’s chassis to eliminate hum and excessive noise.  
5. “Line Inputs” (CD player, Tape Deck, Sampler Input Connection): The line level input is used to connect CD players  
and other line level devices such as samplers, tape decks, keyboards, and line output turntables.  
6. “Booth Output” (Auxiliary Stereo Unbalanced Output): This RCA output is for connecting a secondary external  
monitoring device such as a booth monitor or second stereo output. The level of the booth output signal will increase as the  
“Booth” volume control is increased.  
7. “Master Unbalanced Output” (Main Stereo RCA Output): This RCA output is for connecting an external monitoring  
device such as a PA system, powered monitors or a home stereo. The level of the master stereo output signal increases as  
the “master” volume control is increased.  
8. “Master Balance Output” (Balanced Quarter Inch Stereo Output): These ¼” outputs are for sending a balanced level  
signal to a PA system or recording device. The level of the balanced output signal will also increase with the “master”  
volume control. These outputs are durable, offer a better output signal, and are well suited for long cable runs.  
9. “Digital Output” (Optical): 48kHz, 24-bit S/PDIF output. The format is type 2, form 1, also known as S/PDIF  
(Sony/Phillips Digital Interface Format). This output can be connected to compatible devices such as CD Burners, Hard  
Drive recorders, or other digital mixers. Higher audio fidelity is maintained from these outputs.  
10. “Digital Output” (Coax): 48kHz, 24-bit S/PDIF output. The format is type 2, form 1, also known as S/PDIF (Sony/Phillips  
Digital Interface Format). This output can be connected to compatible devices such as CD Burners, Hard Drive recorders, or  
other digital mixers.  
11. AC In: This mixer is designed to work with the power supply assembly that comes with the unit. While the power is  
switched off, plug the power supply into the mixer first, then plug it into the outlet.  
12. Power Switch: Use this switch to turn on the mixer after all input devices are already connected to prevent damage to  
your equipment. Turn the mixer on before you turn on amplifiers and turn of amplifiers before you turn off the mixer

CROSSFADER MODES  
This section describes the actions of your digital crossfader, depending upon mode settings.  
Normal Fade: The contour knob controls the slope of crossfader. As a slope control, when the  
contour is rotated to the left, the Crossfader will gradually fade from one channel to the other.  
When rotated to the right, a very sharp fade between channels will occur immediately when the  
fader is moved.  
Velocity Sensitive Flanger: The velocity of the crossfader controls the amount of flanger  
applied to the output. The contour knob controls the rate of the flanger.  
Velocity Sensitive Band Pass Filter: The velocity of the crossfader controls the mix and  
frequency of a Band-Pass filter applied to the output. The contour knob controls the slope of  
crossfader.  
Autopan: The current channel will be mixed in on either left or right only when the crossfader  
is initially moved inwards. As the crossfader is moved to the center, the pan for the other  
channel is re-balanced to the center. Every time the crossfader is brought inwards from an  
endpoint, the mix will toggle between left and right. The contour knob controls the slope of  
crossfader.  
Auto-Cut: This crossfader creates a gating effect when the user moves the crossfader inwards  
from an endpoint. The crossfader mode indicator will flash at the gating rate, which is controlled  
by the contour knob. When the crossfader is moved towards the middle, it passes a threshold  
which will stop the gating effect. The gating will not start again until the user returns to an  
endpoint and moves inwards again.  
Auto-Cut with Low Pass filter: This works similarly to “Autocut” except a LP filter is also  
applied to the channel. The LP filter sweeps from 120 to 20kHz(full spectrum) as the crossfader  
is moved towards the middle.  
Dual Phase Shifter: The audio will be phase shifted when the fader is moved inwards from an  
endpoint. The phase shifting will mix to dry as the xfader is moved to center. The contour  
knob controls the slope of crossfader.  
Vari-Cut: Using the contour knob, the user can position a brief audio cut in the crossfader. At  
one extreme of the contour knob, both sides of the crossfader have a centered cut, making the  
master audio output completely cut out in the center. At the other extreme, the cuts move  
towards their respective endpoints. Different cut points will allow the user to double their  
“crabbing” or “chirping” rate, or find a comfortable offset cut-in point.
