Quick Start Guide We'll begin this guide by connecting a pair of speakers and generating some stereo output. Note that the operations and procedures will vary somewhat according to the input devices you are using. Step 1 Preparing the Power Supply 1. Make sure that the power switch of the unit is set to the " " position (off). 2. Connect the microphones and/or instruments you intend to use. For details on making connections, refer to the "Setup Examples" on pages 8, 9. Front Panel Rear Panel 2. Connect the socket of the included power cord to the [AC IN] connector. 3. Plug the power cord into a power outlet. When using a condenser microphone, set the +48V phantom switch to ON (page 18). Step 2 Connections 1. Turn all the faders and gain controls com- pletely down. GAIN controls Power switch (rear panel) DI Although electric guitars and basses can be connected directly to the mixer's inputs, the sound is likely to be thin and possibly noisy. For best results with these types of instruments use a DI box (direct box) or amp simulator between the instrument and the mixer. Faders Step 3 Powering Up the System To prevent an unwanted burst of noise from the speakers, power up the devices in the following order: peripheral devices (instrument, microphone, iPod) MGP mixer power amps (or powered speakers). Reverse this order when turning the power off. CAUTION • If you are using condenser microphones that require phantom power, turn the mixer's +48V switch on before turning on the power to the power amps or powered speakers. See page 18 for details. • Be sure to turn the power on/off in the order given in Step 3 above every time you use the device. Failure to do so may result in loud noise bursts that can damage your equipment, your ears, or both. 12 MGP16X/MGP12X Owner's Manual
