Dub Mixer Front & Back Panel Controls

FRONT PANEL FUNCTIONS

Below is the description of the front panel controls and features.

BLOC 1 : AUX INPUTS (AUX 1 & AUX 2)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
VOLRotary potentiometer to control the volume of the AUX input:
• At minimum (fully anti-clockwise), the volume is the lowest.
• At maximum, the volume is the highest.
FX SENDRotary potentiometer to set the effect send level of the AUX input signal.
MIC / LN SWITCHSelector switch to choose between microphone or line input:
• MIC position enables microphone input with built-in compressor.
• LN position enables line-level input.

BLOC 2 : INTERNAL EFFECTS UNIT (INT. FX)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
TIMEAdjusts the delay time of the internal effect. (When in Manual Time Mode)
MODControls modulation depth for the internal effect.
VOLRotary potentiometer to set the effect volume.
TAPPush the button to manually adjust the delay tempo, here’s how it works :
1. TAP LED OFF : In Manual Time Mode, you adjust the Time with the TIME potentiometer.
2. Begin tapping at the Rythm you want : the TAP button begin to blink.
3. TAP LED BLINKING : Continue tapping until the TAP stop blinking.
3. CONTINOUS LIGHT : Meaning it has found the tempo you tapped. You’re now in TAPPED MODE and the TIME potentiometer is disabled.
4. Turn the TIME potentiometer until you reach the Tapped Temp, then the TAP LED will be off again and you’re back at step 1.

BLOC 3 : SIREN / SOUND GENERATOR

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
TYPERotary selector to choose between different sound types: Synare, NJD, Lickshot, and more.
MODControls modulation depth of the sound.
VOLPotentiometer to adjust the overall volume of the generated sound.
TRIG– Short press to trigger sound .
– Long press to stop sound during playback.

BLOC 4 : FILTERS SECTION

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
FREQ (Low-Pass & High-Pass EQ)Two rotary potentiometers to set the frequency
• One for the Low-Frequency Boost (in EQ Mode) or Low-Pass Filter (in HP/LP)
• One for the High-Frequency Boost (in EQ Mode) or High-Pass Filter (in HP/LP)
MODE SWITCHEQ Mode (Peaking Filters) or HP/LP Mode
ONPush switch to activate or deactivate the filter section.


BLOC 5 : ISOLATOR SECTION

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
FREQ SELECTION (LOW & HIGH)Two rotary potentiometers to control the crossover frequencies between bands.
BASS / MID / TOP VOLUMEThree rotary potentiometers to adjust the volume of each frequency band.
KILL/MUTE SWITCHESPush switches to mute or cut each frequency band individually (Bass, Mid, Top).
  

BLOC 6 : CHANNEL CONTROL (CH A & CH B)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
INPUT SELECT (A/B)Rotary selector to switch between four different input sources per channel:
• A & B are Phono Inputs (with compressor)
• C & D are Line Inputs
CUEPush switch to cue the selected channel in the headphone output.
VOLRotary potentiometer to control the volume of each channel.
MUTE SWITCHPush switch to mute the channel audio.
  

BLOC 7 : MASTER OUTPUT SECTION

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
MASTER VOLPotentiometer to adjust the overall output volume of the mixer.
VU-METER (LED DISPLAY)Indicates the output level of the mixer.
CLIP LEDWarns when the signal is too high and clipping/limiting occurs or is about to occur.
You may encounter various situations that are different :
– Only the Clip LED Blinks (L, R or both), it means the output level of the mixer is limiting / hardly compressing, you should reduce the Master or the Channel Gain
– Clip LED + Cue Led Blinks : It means the Input signal going into the dub mixer is too high. If the CUE led from CH1 blinks, it means you should reduce the output level of the machine you’re using to input into the CH1. Respectively, the same for CH2 if CH2 Cue led is blinking.
– Clip LED + Signal Led Blinking from AUX 1 or AUX2 : Meaning the input signal going in the Dub Mixer’s AUX1 or AUX2 is too High. You should reduce the output level of the machine you’re using to input the signal into thoses inputs (AUX1 or AUX2 depending on wich one is blinking)

VARIOUS

FX SEND SWITCHSwitch to select internal or external FX send for the next FX send potentiometer that is adjusted.
How it works:
1. Change the FX send destination switch (set it to INT or EXT).
2. Move an FX send potentiometer (any one).
3. That’s it, the effect send destination is now modified !

Note: you absolutely must change the switch position to activate the change of destination, so if it’s already set to INT and you want to change an effect send for the internet effect, you’ll need to move the switch twice ( INT -> EXT -> INT) and then turn an effect send potentiometer.
FADER SWITCHDisables the fader, allowing both A & B channels to pass through simultaneously.

BACK PANEL FUNCTIONS & CONNECTORS

For more information, see also the articles on Output Modes Configurations

BLOC 1 : EFFECTS LOOP (FX SEND / RETURN)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
FX SEND (STEREO TRS)Sends audio from the mixer to an external effects unit.
FX RETURN (STEREO TRS)Receives the processed audio back into the mixer.

BLOC 2 : MASTER OUTPUT SECTION

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
MASTER OUTPUT (L/R TRS)Main outputs of the mixer.
OUTPUT MODESThe master output can be configured to different modes:
1. Master Output Stereo (L+R) TRS: Standard stereo mode.
2. Master LR x 2: Two identical stereo outputs.
3 : Master LR + BASS + SUB: Stereo signal with additional sub-bass output.
4 : TOP + MID + BASS + SUB: Four-way mono output with frequency division.
5 : 4-Way Output (Mono): Mono signal split into four bands.
6 :  3-Way Output (Mono): Mono signal split into three bands.
7 : 2-Way Output (Stereo): Stereo signal split into two bands.

BLOC 3 : AUX INPUTS (AUX 1 & AUX 2 – MIC/LINE COMPATIBLE)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
AUX INPUT 1 & 2 (TRS)Balanced TRS inputs for connecting microphones or line-level sources.
MIC/LINE SWITCHSelects between microphone or line input mode (with built-in compressor for MIC mode), DOES NOT ACCEPT PHANTOM POWER.

BLOC 4 : CHANNEL INPUTS (IN C & IN D – LINE INPUTS)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
IN C & IN D (TRS)Balanced TRS inputs for line-level sources (CD players, laptop, mixers, etc.).

BLOC 5 : PHONO INPUTS (IN A & IN B – TURNTABLE INPUTS)

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
IN A & IN B (RCA – PHONO)Inputs for turntables with built-in RIAA preamp and compressor.
GND (GROUND SCREW)Grounding terminal to prevent hum and noise when using turntables.

BLOC 6 : POWER & PROGRAMMING SECTION

FUNCTIONSUSAGE
PRG (USB-C PORT)Used for firmware updates and configuration.
