Introduction
The EDUP MIX1000 is an ultra-compact, low-noise 10-channel stereo audio mixer designed for versatile audio applications. It features 10 independent input channels, each with individual volume control and the ability to switch between mono and stereo modes. This mixer is ideal for combining signals from various audio sources such as instruments, microphones, and playback devices into a single output.
Important Safety Information
- Power Supply: Use only the supplied 5V power connector. Ensure the power plug is easily accessible for quick disconnection.
- Volume Levels: Always turn all volume knobs to their minimum (far left) position before powering on or connecting/disconnecting audio sources to prevent sudden loud noises and potential damage to hearing or equipment.
- Placement: Place the mixer on a stable, flat surface. Avoid placing it in direct sunlight, near heat sources, or in areas with high humidity or dust.
- Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation around the unit to prevent overheating.
Setup Guide
-
Power Connection: Connect the supplied 5V power connector to the TYPE-C power interface on the mixer. Once connected, the 'POW' indicator light will illuminate, indicating the mixer is powered on.
Note: To power off the mixer, simply unplug the power connector.
-
Connecting Audio Sources (Inputs): Connect your audio sources (e.g., electronic keyboards, microphones, guitars, computers) to the 6.35mm mono jacks labeled INPUT1 through INPUT10. Each input corresponds to a channel.

Figure 2: Detail of 6.35mm TRS/TS input and output jacks. - Connecting Audio Output: Connect your amplifier, speakers, or recording device to the 6.35mm mono jack labeled 'OUTPUT'. This jack transmits the mixed audio signal.
- Initial Volume Settings: Before playing any audio, ensure all 'LEVEL' adjustment knobs for individual channels and the main 'OUTPUT' adjustment knob are turned completely counter-clockwise (to their minimum position). This prevents sudden loud sounds.
Operating Instructions
-
Adjusting Individual Channel Volume: Each input channel (IN 1 to IN 10) has an independent 'LEVEL' adjustment knob. Rotate this knob clockwise to increase the volume of the corresponding channel. Adjust to your desired level.

MONO/STEREO Switch: Each channel features a MONO/STEREO switch key. Press this key to toggle between mono and stereo input modes, depending on the audio source and desired effect. This allows for flexibility with different instruments or microphones.

- Level Indicator: The mixer includes a level indicator (labeled 'LEVEL' next to the OUTPUT knob) to visually monitor the output signal strength. Adjust input and output volumes to keep the indicator within optimal range, avoiding clipping (red lights) for clear audio.
Maintenance
- Cleaning: Use a soft, dry cloth to clean the exterior of the mixer. Do not use liquid cleaners or solvents.
- Storage: When not in use for extended periods, store the mixer in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures.
- Cable Care: Regularly check audio and power cables for any signs of damage. Replace damaged cables immediately to ensure safe and optimal performance.
Troubleshooting
| Problem | Possible Cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| No power indicator light | Power cable not connected or faulty. | Ensure the 5V Type-C power cable is securely connected to the mixer and a working power source. |
| No sound output | Output volume too low; input volume too low; incorrect cable connection; connected device off/muted. | Check the main 'OUTPUT' knob and individual channel 'LEVEL' knobs. Verify all audio cables are correctly and securely connected. Ensure the connected amplifier/speakers are powered on and not muted. |
| Distorted or noisy audio | Input volume too high; faulty cable; interference. | Reduce the 'LEVEL' knob for the affected channel. Ensure input levels are not clipping (check level indicator). Try different cables. Ensure proper grounding and distance from other electronic devices. |
| One channel not working | Channel volume too low; faulty input source/cable. | Increase the 'LEVEL' knob for that specific channel. Test the input source and cable with another channel or device to isolate the problem. |

User Tips
- Always start with all volume knobs at their lowest setting and gradually increase them to avoid sudden loud noises.
- Experiment with the MONO/STEREO switch for each channel to find the best sound for your specific instrument or microphone.
- For optimal sound quality, ensure that input levels are not too high, which can cause distortion. Monitor the level indicator to prevent clipping.
- The MIX1000 is designed with high-quality low-noise chips for clear audio. If you experience unexpected noise, double-check all cable connections and ensure your audio sources are not introducing noise.
