Holes for microphone
stand adapter
The bottom panel of the 1402VLZ4 has three non-threaded
holes that allow it to be fitted with an optional microphone
stand adapter. This lets you support the mixer on a standard
mic stand and adjust its height and level to whatever suits
your preferences.
The Atlas AD-11B mic stand adapter is available at many
music stores. It is made and distributed by Atlas Sound.
Use three self-tapping machine screws 6-32 x 1/4” long to
secure the adapter to the bottom of the 1402VLZ4.
Do not use screws longer than 1/4” as these could damage
the circuit boards. Do not use screws shorter than 1/4”,
or the adapter will not be securely fixed to the mixer.
