MT-X Expansion Box User Guide
Thank you for purchasing the MT-X Expansion Box,
designed for use with the A-16 or
A-16II
Personal Mixer in combination with its
MT-1 Mic Stand Mount in a Pro16® personal mixing system.
The MT-X Expansion Box attaches easily to the personal mixer using the
same mounting holes used by the MT-1, which is required when using the MT-X. Only a Phillips screwdriver
is required for
installation.
Features
When added to a Personal Mixer, the MT-X Expansion Box
provides robust protection to the personal mixer’s case and
connectors as well as additional audio connectivity options.
All connectors are located on the underside of the MT-X, with
an internal wire harness that connects to the Personal Mixer’s
existing audio output jack and A-Net® input jack. Audio connections include both 1/8-inch and 1/4-inch stereo headphone jacks along
with separate XLR left/right line-level audio outputs, simplifying connections to nearly any monitoring device. The A-Net In on the
MT-X utilizes a heavy-duty locking EtherCon® connector.
PNo t e Personal Mixers equipped with an MT-X must be powered over the Cat-5 cable from an A-16D or A-16D Pro A-Net Distributor.
Assembling and Attaching the MT-X
The MT-X attaches to the built-in mounting holes on the underside of the Personal Mixer along with an MT-1 Mic Stand Mount. Longer
mounting screws (size 6-32, 5/16-inch long) are supplied with the MT-X Expansion Box to accommodate the extra thickness of the MT-1
plus the MT-X.
If you are installing the MT-X on a Personal Mixer with an MT-1 Mic Stand Mount already attached, start by removing the three 6-32,
1/4-inch screws that hold the MT-1 in place. Set them aside in a safe location in case the installation process needs to be reversed in the
future. Set the MT-1 aside until the audio and network connections have been made.
Cable Connections
The MT-X Expansion Box comes with pre-attached TRS stereo
audio and Cat-5e jumper cables that plug into the existing audio
output and A-Net In jacks on the Personal Mixer. The first step is
to attach these jumper cables to the Personal Mixer.
Start with the Personal Mixer sitting upright on a flat surface.
Position the MT-X behind the Personal Mixer with the Expansion
Box’s Aviom logo facing rear. Plug the 1/4-inch TRS jumper cable
from the MT-X assembly into the Ph o N e s /Li N e ou t jack on the
Personal Mixer. Then plug the Cat-5e jumper cable from the MT-X
assembly into the A-Ne t iNjack on the Personal Mixer. The A-Ne t
ou t and DC Po w e r jacks on the rear of the Personal Mixer are left
unused and will be covered by the MT-X.
Mounting the MT-1 and MT-X
Carefully turn over the Personal Mixer and MT-X assembly (with
the jumper cables attached) on the work surface to access the
mounting holes on the bottom of the Personal Mixer. Place
the MT-1 under the MT-X, aligning the mounting holes in the
MT-1 Mic Stand Mount and the MT-X Expansion Box with the
mounting holes in the Personal Mixer. Attach both to the
Personal Mixer with the supplied 5/16-inch 6-32 screws using a
Phillips screwdriver. (See the diagram that follows.)

Do not over tighten the screws, as damage to the Personal Mixer case can result. The assembly process is complete and the Personal
Mixer is now ready to be mounted on a mic stand or optional EB-1 Extension Bracket.
Align the screw holes in the MT-X and MT-1 and secure both
brackets to the Personal Mixer using the screws provided.
Audio and Network Connections
Once assembled and mounted on a stand, the Personal Mixer and MT-X combination is ready to use. Connect the Personal Mixer to a
Pro16 personal mixing system by running a Cat-5e cable (with or with out EtherCon connector) from a powered A-Ne t ou t jack on an
A-Net Distributor (A-16 D or A-16D Pro) to the A-Ne t iNjack on the MT-X.
Plug headphones or earbuds into the 1/4-inch or 1/8-inch headphone outputs on the MT-X; both outputs receive the same stereo
mix. The 1/8- and 1/4-inch stereo outputs also function as line-level outputs and can be connected to stereo sources such as desktop
speaker systems (use a TRS to dual TS adapter cable for this application). To connect to a line-level source such as a power amplifier,
processor, or mixing console, use the XLR left/right audio outputs.
All audio outputs on the MT-X are active at all times while a Personal Mixer is connected to a Pro16 monitoring system. While it is
possible to connect audio devices to all of the MT-X outputs simultaneously, note that there will likely be an impedance difference
amongst the different types of audio devices that would be connected to each output. This may cause the output level to be different
at each device. If you need to connect two sets of headphones, for example, try to use devices with similar impedances to minimize
volume differences for each user.
Cautions
The 1/4-inch stereo plug from the MT-X wire harness that is permanently attached to the Personal Mixer audio output jack defeats the
stereo/mono auto detect feature of the A-16II
Personal Mixer (this does not apply to the original, discontinued
A-16
Personal Mixer).
Do
not connect a mono (TS) 1/4-inch or 1/8-inch plug to the headphone outputs; while you will not harm the Personal Mixer, low output
level and/or distortion may occur. Use the XLR audio outputs if you need a mono output.
For mono applications such as connecting the Personal Mixer to a powered speaker or monitor, do not connect a balanced mono TRS
plug from the 1/4-inch or 1/8-inch stereo audio outputs to the balanced input of another audio device—use the XLR outputs instead.
Connecting a balanced TRS plug to the headphone outputs will cause a low output at the connected audio device because a balanced
signal is differential—it subtracts the positive (+) signal from the negative (-) signal in the balanced circuit to eliminate noise.
