Power LED This is lit when the power supply is switched on. + STANDBY ON L R STEREO OUT DC IN 9V MIC MIC ALC ON Peak LED X-15 PAN PAN PAN MIC (ALC ON; -50~-20dBV) This is also the position when using a microphone. When this position is selected, the ALC circuit becomes active and the input level is automatically adjusted within a -50dBV~-20dBV range (The LED will light in green when switched to this position and change to red when the ALC circuit is in operation). PAN This LED will be lit when the output signal adjusted by the master fader overloads. Set the master fader so that the LED dose not light too frequently.

STEREO OUT jacks are adjusted with this fader. The headphone sound level is also adjusted by this fader. Input fader Adjusts input level of the sound source signal applied to input jacks 1~ 4. Input jacks 1 ~ 4 External sound sources such as mic, keyboard, guitar, etc. As a level selector for mic/line is provided in channel 1, this should be used when connecting a microphone. Line level output signals only should be connected to channels 2 ~4 as these jacks are designed for line output sound sources. PHONES jack Monitor headphone is plugged in here. CONNECTING THE AC ADAPTOR/INSTALLING THE BATTERY Plug the AC adaptor cable into the X-15 DC IN jack and plug the AC adaptor into the wall outlet. Battery Compartment Open the mixer bottom battery compartment lid by hand, correctly connect the plug to the battery, and place battery in compartment and replace lid as before. <NOTE> Be sure to remove the battery if it is not to be used for long hours or extensive periods of time. If not, it could result in leaking electrolyte from the battery which can ruin your new mixer. DC IN jack AC adaptor <NOTE> Unplug the AC adaptor from the wall outlet if the X-15 is not to be used for long hours or extensive periods of time. Plug Battery INTERCONNECTING EXAMPLE WITH EXTERNAL EQUIPMENT As shown in example below, by interconnecting X-15 as a sub mixer with a multitracker having few input ports, a multitude of sound sources can then be mixed and recorded by the multitracker.
