Operating Manual -MX-206 Stereo Microphone Mixer

6. TYPICAL APPLICATIONS:

6.1 Small Sound
Reinforcement System:
In the setup shown here, the MX-206 is used to
mix typical sound sources that might be found in a small
club, meeting room, school theater or similar environment.
Six input channels are used for microphones for vocal or
instrumental pickup. The Stereo Line In (from front or
back panel input jack) and Out provide feeds to and from
a laptop or other recording/playback device for playback
of recorded material, or for making a recording of the mix.
The main PA power amplifiers (or any additional equaliz-
ers or electronic crossovers which may be used) are fed
from the Stereo Output connectors, while a stage or con-
trol room monitor is fed from the Mono Output.

6.2 Location Recording or Broadcast Mixing:

In this setup the MX-206 is used to mix sources
typically found in location recording or broadcast situa-
tions (mostly microphones). In this case, all six inputs are
microphones, as would be used in a roundtable panel dis-
cussion. The Stereo Line In receives the output of a laptop,
CD player, or other personal audio device, and the Stereo
Line Out provides a feed to a recording device for making
a recording of the mix. For live remote broadcast applica-
tions, the transformer-isolated Mono Output connector can
feed a suitable video, telephone or press-box interface.

6.3 Submixer In Larger Sound System:

In this application the MX-206 is used to upgrade
an existing sound system by providing a vocal or instru-
mental sub-mix to the main mixer without tying up a num-
ber of channels on the main console. This technique allows
the system input capacity to be expanded without install-
ing more buried mic cables and without changing a mix-
ing console that everyone is already comfortable with.
Use the Headphones Output to achieve a "pre-mix" before
adjusting the main console.
