Mixer Controls
6. Input Selector: Set this switch to the desired audio source from this channel: PC (a track
playing on that layer in the software) or Line (a device connected to the Line/Phono Inputs on
NS6II's rear panel).
Note: The Line/Phono switches on NS6II's rear panel must also be set properly. Also, a
channel's controls will only send MIDI information when its Input Selector is set to PC.
7. Gain Trim: Adjusts the pre-fader, pre-EQ audio level of the corresponding channel in the
software.
8. LED Meters: Monitors the audio levels of the corresponding channel.
9. Channel High: Adjusts the high (treble) frequencies. When Touch Mode is activated, touching
this knob will mute the corresponding channel's high frequencies (an "EQ kill").
10. Channel Mid: Adjusts the mid-range frequencies. When Touch Mode is activated, touching this
knob will mute the corresponding channel's mid-range frequencies (an "EQ kill").
11. Channel Low: Adjusts the low (bass) frequencies. When Touch Mode is activated, touching this
knob will mute the corresponding channel's low frequencies (an "EQ kill").
12. Channel Fader: Adjusts the audio level on the corresponding channel in the software.
13. PFL: Press this button to send this channel's pre-fader signal to the Cue Channel for monitoring.
When engaged, the button will be lit. By pressing one PFL button at a time, you will cue that
channel alone (and deactivate PFL monitoring for the other channels). To cue to multiple
channels simultaneously, press the PFL buttons for those channels at the same time.
14. Crossfader Assign: Routes the audio playing on the corresponding channel to either side of the
crossfader (A or B), or bypasses the crossfader and sends the audio directly to the Program Mix
(center, Off).
15. Crossfader: Blends audio between the channels assigned to the left and right side of the
crossfader.
Note: The crossfader is user-replaceable if it should ever wear out. Simply remove the
facepanel, then remove the screws holding it in position.
16. Master Volume: Adjusts the output volume of the Program Mix.
17. Booth Volume: Adjusts the output volume of the Booth Output mix.
Playback Controls
18. Platter: Controls the playhead in the software.
Press and hold Shift and then move the platter to move quickly through the track.
19. Play / Pause: This button pauses or resumes playback.
Press and hold Shift and then press this button to "stutter-play" the track from the last set Cue
Point.
20. Cue: When the Deck is paused, you can set a Temporary Cue Point by moving the platter to
place the playhead at the desired location and then pressing the Cue Button.
During playback, you can press the Cue Button to return the track to this Temporary Cue Point.
(If you did not set a Temporary Cue Point, then it will return to the beginning of the track.)
If the Deck is paused, you can press and hold the Cue Button to play the track from the
Temporary Cue Point. Releasing the Cue Button will return the track to the Temporary Cue Point
and pause it. To continue playback without returning to the Temporary Cue Point, press and
hold the Cue Button, then press and hold the Play Button, and then release both buttons.
Press and hold Shift and then press this button to return to the beginning of the track.
21. Sync: Press this button to automatically match the corresponding Deck's tempo with the
opposite Deck's tempo and phase. Press and hold Shift and press this button to deactivate
Sync.
