LEFT/RIGHT OUTPUT MIC/LINE: DIP switches 1 and 2 adjust the left and right outputs for line- or mic-level
operation.
MIC 1/MIC 2 Ducking: When ducking is on, the SCM262 will automatically lower the gain of all STEREO inputs
when someone is speaking into one of the microphones.
DUCKING LEVEL: Adjusts the amount of STEREO channel gain reduction when ducking is activated.
STEREO 3 JUKEBOX MUTE: This DIP switch turns the Juke Box Mute feature on or off. When on, any source
connected to STEREO 3 will mute STEREO 1 and 2 inputs.
PHANTOM POWER: When in the down position, this switch activates a 12 V phantom power source for
condenser microphones. Phantom power does not affect the operation of balanced, dynamic microphones, so
one can be connected to the SCM262 in combination with a condenser microphone.
Applications
General Application
This is a general setup for most situations which require the combined use of a professional microphone and
consumer stereo equipment. Using this general setup, there are several other options available for further
adjusting the SCM262 for your sound system. See the diagram on the facing page.
1. Turn all gain controls counterclockwise.
2. Connect L/R STEREO INPUTS of the SCM262 to the L/R stereo outputs of the desired stereo audio
equipment (CD players, VCRs, televisions, juke boxes, etc.).
3. Connect microphone(s) to the MIC INPUTS on the SCM262.
4. For microphones which require phantom power, such as condenser microphones, place DIP switch 7 in the
down position (phantom power on).
5. Connect the L/R outputs of the SCM262 to the L/R inputs of the amplifier.
Note: If you are using a consumer stereo amplifier, use the AUX OUTs. If you are using a professional audio
power amplifier, use the LINE OUTs. The MIC/LINE and AUX OUTPUTs can be used simultaneously to feed
two separate amplifiers.
6. Apply power to the mixer by connecting the supplied power cable between the power connector on the
mixer and the appropriate AC power supply. The green POWER LED will illuminate to indicate that the mixer
is powered on.
Note: The SCM262 has no power switch*. It is designed to be plugged into a power strip which supports
the whole sound system. A typical power strip will have a power switch, so that when the power strip is
powered on, the SCM262 is powered on. (*Power Switch, country dependent).
Paging with Ducking Application
With Ducking on, the SCM262 will automatically sense when someone is talking into one of the microphones and
lower the volume of the music so the talker can be heard more clearly. Once the talker is finished, the music
resumes.
Use a microphone with an ON/OFF or pushbutton switch for the Paging with Ducking Application. A microphone without a
switch will false-trigger, causing unwanted interruptions in the program material.
1. Connect the SCM262 to the sound system as described in General Application.
