Operating the XM410

BASIC OPERATION

The following section explains the basic operation of the XM410.
CONNECTING MICROPHONES AND INSTRUMENTS
1. Before connecting mics or instruments,
make sure that the power of all your
systems components, including the
XM410, is turned off. Also, make sure
that the level controls of each channel
of the XM410 and the VOLUME control
of the MAIN section are turned all the
way down.
2. Connect the cables to your micro-
phones and instruments, and insert the
other end of the cable firmly into the
appropriate input on the XM410.
NOTE:
When connecting a line level
device to channels 1 through 6, it's a
good idea to start with the pad switch on.
(Note: You cannot use a channel's MIC and
LINE jacks at the same time.)
3. Switch on the power of any peripheral
devices, and then power up the XM410.
NOTE:
Since the XM410 contains two
power amplifiers, it is important to remember the Golden Rule of audio ... " LAST ON, FIRST OFF". Translated,
this means that when turning on your system, you should always turn your power amplifiers on LAST, and
when turning your system off, turn your power amps off FIRST. This helps avoid any loud pops caused by
rush current at power up or power down, which can sometimes damage loudspeakers .
4. Set the MASTER control of the MAIN section to the "5" position.
5. While speaking into the mic (or playing the instrument), adjust the channel VOLUME control so that the "0"
LED of the MAIN section peak level meter lights occasionally.
6. If you wish to adjust the tone of each channel, adjust the equalizer controls as desired. You may have to
re-adjust the channel volume.
7. Use the MAIN section graphic equalizer and MASTER control to adjust the overall volume and tone.
