7Line level inputs
These inputs allow you to connect a CD or cassette
player, Tuner, or any other line level device.
Turntables cannot be connected via these inputs.
8Phono inputs
These inputs allow you to connect turntables.
Do not connect any line level device to these inputs.
Connect the ground of your turntables to the ground
pins. This will prevent any "snoring" or parasitic noises.
9Source selector
Allow you to select the type of device connected on
these channels. Several devices can be connected on
the same channel but only one per way can be activated.
The "Phono" position is the standard settings to connect
a turntable.
10 Mic input
Allow you to connect a microphone with Jack 6.35
connector.
11 USB Port
This input allows you to connect a computer equipped
with USB ports. Your MYA5D acts like a sound card to
your computer. Your computer will take a few moments
to identify the internal interface. Once identified, your
MYA5D will be detected as audio device.
The USB port allows you to play and record audio data
directly from your computer.
All you need is plugging a USB cable from your computer
to your console and the drivers will automatically launch
their installation. You will then be able to read any audio
file such as MP3, WMA, WAV...
You can also directly record your set onto your computer.
The USB port can record and play at the same time
thanks to the Full duplex system.
The USB interface of your mixer is detected as a
standard USB sound card (USB Audio Device or USB
Audio CODEC).
All audio signals from your computer will be carried
to the console via USB cable, combining a vast audio
database with the ease of use of your MYA8C.

12 DJ microphone input
This combo socket allows you to connect a Jack 6.35 or
XLR microphone.
13 Equalization
Each channel features a 3-way equalizer. These control
knobs can increase or decrease low frequencies (LOW),
medium (MID) or trebles (HIGH) of the output signal.
- HIGH (High Frequency control): Allows you to adjust
the trebles volume from +12 and -26 dB at 10kHz for
each stereo channel, from +16 and -16 dB at 10kHz for
the microphone channel. Turn it clockwise to increase
the volume, counterclockwise to decrease the volume.
- MID (Mid/high Frequency control): Allows you to adjust
the medium frequencies volume from +12 and -26 dB
at 10kHzz for each stereo way, from +16 and -16 dB at
10kHz for the microphone channel. Turn it clockwise to
increase the volume, counterclockwise to decrease the
volume.
- LOW (low frequency control): Allows you to adjust the
basses volume from +12 and -26 dB at 10kHz for each
stereo channel, from +16 and -16 dB at 10kHz for the
microphone channel. Turn it clockwise to increase the
volume, counterclockwise to decrease the volume..
Caution: These settings may affect the clip level.
14 LEVEL (MIC 1)
DJ microphone volume settings.
15 ON (MIC 1)
Turns on/off the DJ microphone way.
16 Source selector
Allow you to select the type of device connected on
these channels. Several devices can be connected
on the same channel but only one per channel can be
activated.
17 Gain control knobs
These control knobs allow you to adjust the input level
on each channel. Adjusting the input level is crucial
to produce a perfect sound quality. High input levels
might create sound distortions which may damage your
amplifiers and speakers.
18 CUE Buttons
These buttons allow you to monitor the signal of a
particular channel and visualise its equalization.
19 CF ASSIGN Selectors
These selectors allow you to assign each channel to one
of the crossfader side or directly send the signal of a
particular channel towards the MASTER output.
The X position indicates the channel is directed towards
the left side of the crossfader while the Y position is
dedicated to the right side. The MASTER position
indicates the channel is directly sent to the crossfader.
20 Channel faders
These faders can be used to adjust the volume of each
channel.
21 Cross-fader
This fader allows you to mix together the output of
selected channels. When on the left (X), only the signal
carried by the X-assigned channel will be audible. Wen
on the right, only the Y-assigned channel will be audible.
When at the center, both channels are audible.
22 CF CURVE
Allows you to configure the behaviour of the cross-fader:
towards the left meaning the transition from one track to
the other is progressive while once position towards the
right indicates a direct transition.
23 Headphones output
This stereo Jack 6.35 allows you to connect your
headphones to monitor sound outputs..
Please make sure the headphones are at their
lowest volume before connecting them.
24 MIX / SPLIT
Allows you to select the type of monitoring.
In MIX mode, the headphones will receive the
CUE and MASTER channels, each channel
can be selected via the CUE mixing fader.
In SPLIT mode, the headphones will receive the mono
signal from the CUE channel in the left earcup while the
right earcup will be dedicated to the mono MASTER
signal. This function uses the VU meter in the same way.

25 MIX (CUE / MASTER)
This function allows you to listen to a selected channel
via your headphones. Use the CUE button and the
master settings (PGM) to adjust their volume in relation
to each other.
26 LEVEL
Allows you to configure the headphones output volume.
Turn it clockwise to increase the volume.
Please make sure the headphones are at their
lowest volume before connecting them.
27 VOL A
Allows you to adjust the volume of the main output
labeled MASTER A at the rear.
Please make sure the volume is at its lowest
before turning on your device.
28 VOL B
Allows you to adjust the volume of the main output
labeled MASTER B at the rear.
Please make sure the volume is at its lowest
before turning on your device.
29 VU meters
These indicators allow you to visualise the volume of
each CUE-selected channel: that is the PFL (Pre Fader
Listen). They also allow you to visualise the volume of
the Master output (PGM).
When reaching the red zone, the volume is too high and
the sound output might be distorted.
