Features
This model is the official audio mixer for the DMC-sponsored World DJ Championship to be held each year in 1997 and beyond. The event will
bring together professional disc jockeys from all over the world to compete for top honors.
К is a top-of-the-line audio mixer with the kind of outstanding design, functions and sound quality that suits the requirements of disc jockeys
accustomed to giving scratch-mixing performances in a variety of different ways.
Operating ease
oThis audio mixer is designed with the same height as that of the
SL-1200MK2 for operating ease.
о By providing adequate space in the panel layout around the chan-
nel faders and cross fader and by eliminating the protruding parts,
full rein can be given to individual technique which exactly reflects
the mood of the moment even when it comes to high-powered
scratch-mixing.
Functions
eThe model comes with both high and low equalizers so that all
manner of sound sources can be accommodated to generate a
highly creative style of sound. A wide margin of creativity in produc-
ing sound is provided since the attenuation is set to a high —24 dB
(12 dB/oct):

eThe model is equipped with TRIM controls (+10 dB) which com-
pensate for differences in the source level.
•Ву adding a pre-fader monitor, the channels selected by the CUE
controls can be monitored regardless of the positions of the faders.
itis also possible to mix and monitor the line-out sources.
The model comes with line-out connectors for monitoring so that
sound can be monitored not only with headphones but through the
speakers inside the booth.
The line-out source L and А levels as well as the monitor source
levels can be checked out on the 12-point, 3-column level meter.
e An AUX IN connector is provided to enable a sampler, keyboard,
etc. to become part of the disc jockey scene.
Construction and materials
оМем 45 mm stroke faders with an excellent durability and smooth
operating touch have been developed for this model. The service
life of the channel faders and cross fader has been improved by a
quantum leap {an approximately 10-fold increase over existing
models; nominal service life: 100,000 operations).
ФА spare channel fader and a spare cross fader have been provided
on the back panel just in case, and the faders themselves are
designed to enable easy replacement.
© Lever switches are employed for the input selector controls (LINE,
PHONO) and, by providing adequate space around them, they can
also be used for operations involving the transformer scratch func-
tion.
eThe panels are made of aluminum, and the surfaces have a glossy
finish with a tough black coating which makes it hard for the mark-
ings to be worn away.
