                        Getting Started  1     Using Proper Cables    When connecting instruments and other equipment to the  MultiMix, it’s important that you use the appropriate types of  cables. Here are some simple but important guidelines:     For the mic inputs, use XLR cables.   For the line inputs and all other 1/4” connections, use 1/4”  mono TRS cables.   Use stereo RCA cables for the 2-track in and out.   Use a USB 2.0 cable to connect one of the USB 2.0 ports  to a computer.        Setting Levels    Before
