      First, ensure that all external devices, including microphones and speakers, are correctly connected. Then, check that all the input channel [LEVEL] controls and the AUX1, AUX2, and STEREO MASTER [LEVEL] controls are set to appropriate levels. For channel 11/12, if both RCA and stereo mini jacks are connected, the stereo mini jack will take priority. Finally, verify that the speaker cables are not shorted.

      If the AMPLIFIER [PROTEC- TION] indicators are constantly on, this indicates that the output has been muted due to amplifier overheating. Please wait until the amplifier has cooled down to an acceptable level. If it does not reset, turn off the [ ] (Power) switch and restart the mixer after leaving it for a few minutes.

      Ensure that the equalizer controls [HIGH]/[MID]/[LOW] are adjusted appropriately. Check if the [HPF] switch is turned on. Turning the [MASTER EQ] control to the left of the center position “MUSIC”, which is the basic setting, will suppress low and high range audio frequencies.

      Turn off the [ ] (Power) switch and recheck the connection. Be sure that you are using the included power cord, and that it is correctly connected to the [AC IN] jack and plugged into a working power outlet. If the power still does not come on when pressing the [ ] (Power) switch after waiting a few minutes, the mixer may be malfunctioning. If this is the case, contact your nearest Yamaha dealer.

      Connect a powered speaker (a speaker with an internal amplifier) to the [AUX1 SEND], [AUX2 SEND] jacks. For the [AUX1 SEND] jack and [AUX2 SEND] jack output signals, adjust each channel’s [AUX1] send control, [AUX2/FX] send control, as well as the AUX1 and AUX2 MASTER [LEVEL] controls. Set the AMPLIFIER [MODE] switch to “L+R/AUX1” to enable the monitor signal (AUX1) to be output from the rear panel [SPEAKERS B] jack. The STEREO L/R mixed signal is output from the [SPEAKERS A] jack.
