This is the fastest way to get something out from your LYNX-MIX USB Series, if you
have a keyboard and a microphone.
a. Plug the microphone into Channel 1 MIC IN.
b. Turn down AUX and LEVEL controls on the input channel.
c. Put the EQ controls on center position.
e. Turn on your LYNX-MIX USB Series.
g. If you like, you can adjust the EQ at this stage.
h. The LED on the Master LED meter should flash only occasionally, otherwise you
will hear distortion. If this LED is not active and you still hear distortion, please
turn down a little the input LEVEL control or reduce the output level of your
source instrument.
i. Connect your stereo keyboard into channel 5/6 and repeat the sequence.(for
LYNX-MIX124 USB)
Connect your stereo keyboard into channel 9/10 and repeat the sequence.(for
LYNX-MIX164 USB)
Here you are. It is your first gig with your LYNX-MIX USB Series.
f. Sing or speak into the microphone with normal volume and adjust the channel
LEVEL control of half.

Your LYNX-MIX124 USB is equipped with

MIX204 USB) low-noise microphone pre-
amplifier with optional phantom power,
50 dB of Gain and over 115 dB of S/N
ratio. You can connect almost any type
of microphone. Dynamic microphones do
not need phantom power. Use phantom
power only with condenser microphones
but make sure that the phantom power
button is disengaged before connecting
the microphone. Phantom power will not
damage your dynamic microphones, so
make sure to read the microphone
instructions manual before engaging
phantom power. Use switch (49) to
activate/deactivate phantom power. These
channels are also equipped with 1/4" TRS
balanced/unbalanced LINE-IN plugs to
connect line-level instruments such as
keyboards, drum machines and effect
devices.

These are channels 5 through 12 (9 through 16 for LYNX-MIX164 USB, 13
through 20 for LYNX-MIX204 USB). They are organised in stereo pair and
provided with XLR sockets (channels 5~6 for LYNX-MIX124 USB, channels
9~10 for LYNX-MIX164 USB, channels 12~13 for LYNX-MIX204 USB) and
1/4" TRS phone jacks. If you connect only the left jack, the input will operate
in mono mode, that is the mono signal will appear on both input channels. You
can use these inputs with a stereo keyboard, drum machine, etc.

Ok, you have got to this point and you are now in the position to successfully operate
your LYNX-MIX USB Series. However, we advise you to read the following section carefully
to be the real master of your own mix. Not paying enough attention to the input signal
level, the routing of the signal and the assignment of the signal will result in unwanted
distortion, a corrupted signal or no sound at all. So you should follow this procedure
for every single channel:
1. Turn down all Input and output gain controls.
2. Connect phantom powered microphones before switching on the +48 Volt phantom
power switch.
3. Set the output level of your LYNX-MIX USB Series or the connected power amplifier
at no more than 75%.
5. Position EQ controls on middle position.
6. Position panoramic (PAN/BAL) control on center position.
8. Increase the input gain properly for maintaining the good headroom and ideal dynamic
range.
9. Depending on the actual application, turn slowly the input and output level controls
for obtaining the maximum gain before distortion.
10. Now repeat the same sequence for all input channels. The main LED meter could
move up into the red section. In this case you can adjust the overall output level
through the main mix control.
You can connect unbalanced equipment to balanced inputs and outputs. Simply follow
these schematics.

4. Now, set the CONTROL ROOM/PHONES level at no more than 50%. In this way you
will be able to hear later what you are doing connecting a pair of headphones or a pair

below 80 Hz. In this way you can avoid
low-frequency vibrations and resonance
thus preserving the life of your woofers.

to the external effect or processor equipment, AUX SEND4 can also be
assigned to the internal onboard effect module.

Inside your LYNX-MIX USB Series the audio signal is monitored in several different

they are let into the mix. It is useful to set an instrument's input level and EQ,
and you can also solo any channel that you want to. The SOLO switch never
affects any mix other than the Control Room. The other three buttons can be
considered as signal assignment switches. Pressing the SUB 1-2 will assign the
channel signal to Subgroup1/2, you can depend on the PAN switch to adjust the
amount of channel signal sent to the SUB1 versus SUB2, when turns the PAN
to completely left, then the signal can be only controlled by Subgroup1 and vice-
