4. Bedryfsinstruksies

4.1 Basiese kontroles

Maak jouself vertroud met die hoofkontroles:

• Kryknoppe: Adjust the input sensitivity for each channel. Set these to achieve a strong signal without clipping (indicated by the Peak LED).
• EQ (hoog, middel, laag): Drieband-gelykmaker vir die vorming van die toon van elke kanaal.
• AUX Send: Controls the amount of signal sent from each channel to the auxiliary output, useful for monitor mixes or external effects.
• Pan/Bal: Adjusts the stereo position of the channel's signal.
• Vlak: Controls the overall output level of each channel to the main mix.
• Fantoomkrag (+48V): Supplies power to condenser microphones. Activate only when using condenser microphones.

4.2 Uitsetverbindings

The ZMX862 provides flexible output options:

• Main Outputs (1/4" TRS): Koppel aan jou hoof PA-stelsel of opname-koppelvlak.
