Features
The SRP-X100 is a 1U audio mixer having a 6 channel
monaural input, and 3 channel stereo input.
This mixer is ideal as a public address (PA) mixer in small-
scale halls such as civic and banquet halls, and in schools,
AV systems in offices, etc.
6 channel Monaural Inputs
A 6 channel monaural input (XLR jack) for microphone
level inputs is provided.
Supplies power (+48V DC) to condensor microphones with
just one setting.
Input level selector buttons (for 3 - 6 channels) on rear
panel can also be used for stereo input (+4dBu) at line
level.
3 channel Stereo Inputs
Phono jack stereo inputs (-10dBu) for 3 channels are
provided.
A dedicated input connector(ST3) for recorders is provided
to prevent self-oscillation due to feedback from its own
signal.
The REC bus is isolated to prevent self-oscillation due to
feedback from the original signal.
Plentiful Output connectors
Compatible with many systems thanks to Plentiful outputs
including MASTER OUTPUT, SUB OUTPUT and REC
OUTPUT.
All Channels are equipment with Signal Indicators and
the MASTER OUTPUT is equipment a Peak Indicator.
Easy Mounting into 19’EIA Standard Rack.
Precautions
On safety
•Check that the voltage selector on the rear panel is set to
the local power line voltage. If not, set the selector to the
correct position using a screwdriver before connecting the
AC power cord to a wall outlet.
•This set includes 2 types of AC power cords.
Please select the one that is suitable for the region that
your are living in.
•Should any liquid or solid object fall into the cabinet,
unplug the unit and have it checked by qualified personnel
before operating it any further.
•Unplug the unit from the wall outlet if it is not to be used
for an extended period of time. To disconnect the cord,
pull it out by grasping the plug. Never pull the cord itself.
On installation
Do not install the unit in a location near heat sources such as
radiators or air ducts, or in a place subject to direct sunlight,
excessive dust, mechanical vibration or shock.
On operation
•Before making program source connections, be sure to
turn the power switch off and unplug the unit.
•When the unit is not used, turn the power off to conserve
energy and to extend the useful life of your unit.
On cleaning the cabinet
Clean the cabinet, panel and controls with a soft cloth
lightly moistened with mild detergent solution. Do not use
any type of abrasive pad, scouring powder or solvent such
as alcohol or benzine.
On repacking
Do not throw away the carton and the packing material. It
makes an ideal container for transport the unit in.
When shipping the unit for repair work or to another
location, repack it as it was.
If you have any questions or problems concerning your
unit, please contact your nearest Sony dealer.

Location and function of parts
Front panel
1POWER button & Power Indicator
This turns the power to the unit on and off. Power
indicator lights up (green) when power is on.
2MONO INPUT knobs
Use to adjust the mixing level on MONO INPUT
channels 1 - 6.
3STEREO INPUT knobs
Use to adjust the mixing level on STEREO INPUT
channels 1 - 3.
The ST3 audio is output from REC OUTPUT connec-
tors.
Therefore no signal loop occurs and sounds can be
safely recorded even if the ST3 INPUT knob is still
set high during recording. (See illustration).
4MODE button
Selects how to use the MASTER OUTPUT. At
MONO (O) issues a monaural output, at STEREO
(o) issues a stereo output.
5MASTER OUTPUT knob
Use this knob to adjust the output level at the MAS-
TER OUTPUT connectors.
6SUB OUTPUT knob
Use this knob to adjust the output level at the SUB
OUTPUT connectors.
7SIGNAL indicators
This indicator lights up when input with a signal
ranging from standard input level to more than -20dB.
8+48V indicator
This indicator lights up when power (+48V DC) is
supplied to the MONO INPUT connectors.
9PEAK indicator
Warns that the output signal is too high.
The INPUT knob must be adjusted when this indica-
tor keeps lighting up. (If indicator lights up only
occasionally then there is no problem.)

XLR-3-31 type. (balanced, reference input level
LINE+4dBu, MIC:-60dBu)
No.1 pin:GND No.2 pin:HOT No.3 pin:COLD
This is an input connector for the MONO INPUT
channel.
MONO 1/2 are for microphones but MONO 3 - 6
connect to either microphones or line level devices.
Set the input level selector button to LINE position
(O) when a line level output device is connected to
MONO 3 - 6.
The LCF for Fc=100Hz functions when setting the
mic level.
7INPUT LEVEL Selector buttons
These buttons switch the MONO INPUT 3-4, MONO
INPUT 5-6 input levels according to the connected
equipment.
When these buttons is set to LINE (O) to a line level
(+4dBu) input and automatically assigns Ch. 3, 5 to
the L channel, and Ch. 4, 6 to the R channel.
8+48V button
This button supplies power (+48V DC) for the
condensor microphone to MONO INPUT connectors
1 - 6.
Setting this button to ON (O), supplies +48V DC to
the MONO INPUT connectors that is set to mic level.
9AC Inlet
Attach the supplied AC power cord here.
0VOLTAGE SELECTOR
Set the VOLTAGE SELECTOR to your areas

1MASTER OUTPUT connectors
XLR-3-32 type. (balanced, reference output
level:+4dBu)
No.1 pin:GND No.2 pin:HOT No.3 pin:COLD
Outputs signal from MASTER OUTPUT VOLUME.
2SEPARATE button
Pressing this button to ON (O) outputs only STEREO
INPUT signals or MONO INPUT signals that is set to
line level from the MASTER OUTPUT connector,
output only MONO INPUT signal that is set to
microphone level from SUB OUTPUT connector.
Used for separate to the line level output signals and
microphone signals.
3SUB OUTPUT connectors
Phono jack (unbalanced, reference output level:-
5dBu)
Outputs a mono-mixed signal from SUB OUTPUT
VOLUME.
Outputs the same signal from two phono jacks.
4REC OUTPUT connectors
Phono jack (unbalanced, reference output level:-
10dBu)
Outputs the signal not passing through MASTER
OUTPUT VOLUME.
5STEREO INPUT connectors
Phono jack (unbalanced, reference output level:-
10dBu)
These are input jacks for the STEREO INPUT
channel.
ST1, 2 are usually only for playback equipment. ST3
is connected to a recording equipment wired to the
REC OUTPUT connector of this unit (SRP-X100).
Note
• Before removing cables, or using the +48V button, always
be sure to turn the MONO INPUT button all the way down.
