1. MIC-1 Volume Control
Similar volume controls are also provided for
MIC-2 to MIC-9 input channels as shown in the
diagram above.

10. MASTER Control
Switch to enable or disable the input channel.
Switches with similar functions are also provided
for MIC-2 to MIC-9 input channels as shown in
the diagram above.
Similar volume controls are also provided for
MIC-10 / AUX-1 and MIC-11 / AUX-2 as shown in
the diagram above.
Similar switches with bi-colour LED are also
provided for MIC-10 / AUX-1 and MIC-11 / AUX-2
as shown in the diagram above.
This control boosts or cuts the low frequencies.
Musical instruments like Tabla, Drum and
percussion instruments respond to boost of low
frequencies. When moved from ‘0’ position to 10’
position the low frequencies are reduced which
help eliminate feedback and howling on mic
operation thus allowing opening of higher
volume.
This control boosts or cuts the high frequencies.
It improves the brilliance of sound for string
instruments like Violin,Sarangi, Sitar and to some
extent human voice. Too much boost of this
control can cause oscillation and distortion of
sound.
The 10 LED array calibrated in dB indicates the
Line Output Levels.
It glows when the set is switched ON.
All MIC and AUX input signals are mixable and
these mixed signals are finally controlled by the
Master Control for overall opening of the volume
from the Mixer. For best performance operate
master control say at about ‘6’ to ‘8’ position.

For uninterrupted operation of the Mixer, a 12V
Car Battery is to be connected from this terminal
strip in correct polarity. No battery current is
consumed when the Mixer is working on AC
Mains. Changeover to battery operation is
automatic in case of AC Mains failure.
For connecting AUX input sources such as a
cassette player, additional mixer etc.
For connecting higher output level sources such
as a CD Player, Stereo Cassette Player,
Electronic Keyboard etc.
These jacks are for connecting Lo-impedance
Microphones.
These four jacks are connected in such a way
that they do not load each other. This output is
for connecting the Mixer to the LINE Input of an
amplifier.
These two jacks are for connecting to AUX input
of any amplifier or of a cassette recorder for
