Page 6 STEREO INPUTS 13/14 & 17/18 These accept RCA phono jacks to allow easy connection to hi-fi equipment or DAT players. The input is unbalanced, and ideal for pre-show music sources or signals that do not require any EQ or effects. STEREO INPUTS 15/16 & 19/20 These accept 3-pole `A gauge jacks, or 2-pole mono jacks which will automat ...

Page 10 5 SENS This knob sets how much of the source signal is sent to the rest of the mixer. Too high, and the signal will distort as it overloads the channel. Too low, and the level of any background hiss will be more noticeable and you may not be able to get enough signal level to the output of the mixer. Setting the knob to the `U mark gives ...

Page 16 USING YOUR FOLIO SX CONSOLE T he final sound from your P.A. system can only ever be as good as the weakest link in the chain, and especially important is the quality of the source signal because this is the starting point of the chain. Just as you need to become familiar with the control functions of your mixer, so you must recognise the im ...
