Introduction
Congratulations on purchasing a Gemini model PMX -350 mixer. Thisstate-of-the-art mixer includes the latest features and is backed by a three year warranty, excluding crossfader and channel slides. Prior to use, we suggest that you carefully read all the instructions.
ź

4. CROSSFADER SECTION: The CROSSFADER (20) allows the mixing of one source into another. The left side of the CROSSFADER is CHANNEL 1 and the right side is CHANNEL 2. The CROSSFADER in your unit is removable and, should the need arise, can be easily replaced. Crossfader units are available in two varieties: part RF-45 (which is identical to the crossfader supplied with this mixer) has a 45 mm travel from side-to-side, while the PSF-45 is equipped with a special "curve" designed for scratch mixing. To install a new crossfader: 1. Unscrew the outside FADER plate screws (B). Do not touch the INSIDE SCREWS (C). 2. Carefully lift the fader and unplug the CABLE (D). 3. Plug the new fader into the cable and place it back in the mixer. 4. Screw the fader to the mixer.

Features
· · · · 2 Phono/Line Convertible, 1 Phono, 1 Line and 1 Mic input Gain controls for each channel Removable Crossfader Cue Section

DO NOT USE SPRAY CLEANERS OR LUBRICANTS ON CONTROLS OR SWITCHES.

5. TALKOVER SECTION: The purpose of the talkover section is to allow the program playing to be muted so that the mic can be heard above the music. When the TALKOVER (11) button is pushed, the TALKOVER INDICATOR (10) will glow and the volume of all sources except MIC are reduced by -16 dB. MIC (17) controls the level of the talkover MIC. 6. CUE SECTION: By connecting a set of headphones (26), you can monitor either Channel 1 or Channel 2. Select Channel 1 by moving the CUE SWITCH (19) to the left. Move to the right for Channel 2. Use the CUE (18) control to adjust the headphone volume without affecting the overall mix. 7.
