[. . . ] TX8202 8 Channel Stereo Mixer with Direct Outputs Operating Manual TX8202, 8 Channel Stereo Mixer The TX8202 is a single rack height, 8 channel stereo mixer with direct outputs suitable for desk or 19" rack mounting. The TX8202 has 4 balanced mic or line inputs and 4 stereo auxiliary inputs. Each input channel has individual bass, treble and pan controls. The first 4 channels also feature a line level direct output which can be used to feed additional amplifiers, mixers or recording devices. [. . . ] The direct outputs are accessed via balanced TRS 1/4" sockets for each channel. The level of each output is 1 Volt (nominal). Internal jumpers (JP1) allow signal from any of the first six channels to be disconnected from the main left/right outputs (See the `Internal Adjustments' section of this manual for more information). The direct outputs are adjustable to be pre or post the channel level control. Factory default setting is post fader. Vox Muting Priority muting is provided for channels 1 and 2. Both channels have equal priority and will mute channels 3-8 when signal is present. The muting function may be disabled by moving the jumper labeled JP2 (located on the pcb behind the channel 8 volume control). ON and OFF positions are clearly indicated on the pcb beside the jumper. The unit ships from the factory with muting enabled (JP2 OFF) ­ that's right, OFF; it is a muting disable function, not a muting enable function. When channels 1 and 2 are disconnected from the main left/right outputs, the muting function is automatically disabled. Internal Adjustments Note: The following adjustments involve access to the inside of the TX8202 and should only be attempted by a qualified technician. Always turn off the AC power and remove the AC power cord before accessing the inside of the TX8202. Tone Generator There is a plug in option for a separate tone generator module. VCA Control There is a plug in option for a separate VCA module. You will need a module for each of the left and right channels. Master Left/Right Direct Out Assignment: A jumper labeled JP1 is provided for each of the first 4 channels. The jumpers are located near the front of the unit. When in the ON position, signal from that channel is fed to both the master outputs and the direct outputs. When the switch is in the OFF position, signal from that channel is fed to the direct line level output only. The pre or post assignment is set via a jumper situated mid way towards the right on each channel labeled "Pre Post". This is used to make the Direct Outputs either pre or post channel fader volume. Set to the rear the Direct Output is post fader (i. e. the channel fader volume affects the Direct Output). [. . . ] Damage caused by connection to improper AC voltage is not covered by any warranty. Have gain controls on amplifiers turned down during power-up to prevent speaker damage if there are high signal levels at the inputs. Power down & disconnect units from mains voltage before making connections. Never hold a power switch in the "ON" position if it won't stay there itself! [. . . ]
