The Deck has switched to Live Input. You can now speak into the microphone.
2. Set the incoming microphone signal to an adequate level by turning the GAIN knob on the
Mixer channel.
9.2. Integrating Turntable
The Mixer channels on the S4 allow you to connect up four audio devices, or up to two phono level
devices and two line level devices simultaneously.
A Turntable requiring a separate phono pre-amplifier stage needs to be connected to Mixer chan-
nel A or B. A turntable having an integrated phono pre-amplifier stage generates a line level audio
signal and can be connected to any Mixer channel.
This section  provides you with  the steps  for connecting a  turntable without  an integrated phono-
pre-amplifier stage. Firstly, connect the turntable to the S4, then enable the phono pre-amplifier for
the Mixer channel, and switch the Deck to Live Input.
Connecting Turntable
To connect your turntables to the S4:
1. Switch off the S4.
2. Connect your turntables to the inputs PHONO / LINE IN A  or  B on the rear panel of the S4
using a stereo RCA cable.
3. Attach the ground wire of your turntable to the ground post GND on the rear panel of the S4.
Enabling Phono Pre-Amplifier for Mixer Channel
For the Mixer channel to  receive phono level signal, you  need to enable the phono  pre-amplifier
stage for the Mixer channel:
1. Switch on the S4.
2. Press and hold the SHIFT button on the S4 Deck to access the secondary S4 functions.
3. While holding press the EXT button on the corresponding Mixer channel.
The PHONO LED lights up indicating the phono pre-amplifier is enabled for the Mixer chan-
nel.
Switching the Deck to Live Input
