INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION 10-9 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%. 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 of powered studio monitor speakers. 5. Position EQ controls on middle position. 6. Position panoramic (PAN/BAL) control on center position. 7. With a pair of headphone or studio monitor speakers are connected, apply a Line Level input signal so that the PEAK LED does not light up. 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. Audio Connections You can connect unbalanced equipment to balanced inputs and outputs. Simply follow these schematics. Sleeve Tip OT IG 4. CONTROL ELEMENTS HT 1 MONO MIC/LINE Channels Your LYNX-MIX124 USB is equipped with 4 (8 for LYNX-MIX164 USB, 12 for LYNXMIX204 USB) low-noise microphone preamplifier 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.
