Usage

1. Plug the AC adapter into the 12V DC input on the PowerMIX III and plug the other end into a 120V AC wall socket.

3. Connect the L/R Outputs to the inputs on your mixer, tape deck, PC, etc. with unbalanced, shielded patch cables.
4. Connect stereo headphones to either of the Headphone jacks. An additional set may be connected to the remaining jack. Turn up the Headphone Level slightly.
5. Adjust the channel Pan and Level controls for the desired mix through headphones.
6. Increase the Master Level control setting as required for optimum signal level and clarity from the recording or PA device (PC, cassette deck, mixer, etc.).
