PLEASE READ CAREFULLY BEFORE USE

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THE INSTRUCTIONS PRINTED BELOW MAY VOID WARRANTY

• Follow all security advice printed on your mixer

• When removing the unit's AC plug from the power source, grasp and pull

the plug, NEVER the cord itself!

• Avoid placing your mixer near heat sources, such as power amplifiers.

• When in use, place your mixer on a stable surface, away from vibration.

Always use care when carrying your mixer. Impact, or heavy vibration may

compromise the unit's mechanical integrity. The manufacturer is not

responsible for damage resulting from an impact, or misuse.

• When in use, place your mixer away from sources of hum or noise, such as

transformers, or electric motors.

• To prevent overheating, always provide your mixer with adequate

ventilation air space.

• Avoid stepping on your mixer's AC cord. Repeated compression of the cord

may lead to electrical shorting.

• To avoid damage due to AC voltage peaks, always disconnect your mixer

from the power source during electrical storms. If possible connect mixer to

a surge protector.

• Your mixer contains no user-serviceable parts. The manufacturer is not

responsible for any damage or personal injury resulting from unauthorized

user-servicing or modifications. In addition, the warranty will be void if any

unauthorized service by the user is detected. Always return your mixer to

an authorized Stanton dealer for servicing.

SA.3 FEATURES

DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS

TOP PANEL

1. Microphone level - Controls the attenuation level of the

microphone input. Use the microphone level adjustment to find

the right gain for your microphone, then use the microphone

mute button (3) to mute the input when not in use.

2. Microphone Mute LED - Indicates when microphone mute

button (3) has been engaged.

3. Microphone Mute - Mutes the microphone input.

4. Input Gains - Controls the input sensitivity level for each

channel. Use the input gain in conjunction with the LED meters

(19) to properly set the levels of your input.

5. Input Equalizers - Individual controls for high frequency,

mid-range, and low frequency equalization with 9db of boost and

25dB of kill. Note: Any changes made to EQ settings will change

the overall output level of that input.

6. Input Pan - Controls left / right output balance of each chan-

nel.

7. Cue Level - Controls the output level of the headphone amp.

8. Master / Cue Switch - Selects signal to be sent to head-

phone output. In “CUE” position, the cue pan fader (9) is used

to select which input channel is to be monitored. In “MASTER”

position the master output is sent directly to the headphones.

9. Cue pan fader - Fades the headphone output from input 1 to

input 2 when Master / Cue switch is in “Cue” mode.

10. Master Level - Controls the overall output level of the mas-

ter output.

11. Master Mute Indicator - LED indicates when Master Mute

switch (12) has been engaged.

12. Master Mute - Mutes the master output of the mixer. Use

the master mute in situations where you need to mute and

unmute the mixer without having to re-adjust your Master Level

(10) control.

13. Reverse Indicator - Bi-color (red & green) LED indicates

when fader’s direction has been reversed (green = normal, red =

reversed).

14. Reverse Button - Reverses the direction of the fade on the

corresponding fader.

15. Line fader Curve Control - Selects taper of upfader curve

between a fast cut, medium curve, and long fade.

16. Input Select - Toggle switch selects the input source

between the phono and line inputs located on the back of your

mixer.

MIXER FUNCTIONS

17. Power Indicator - Blue LED indicates when power has been

switched on.

18. Line Fader - The linefader controls the level of each chan-

nel to the master outputs.

19. Level Meter - LED meter indicates level of each channel.

The left LED meter is for channel 1. The right LED meter is for

channel 2. Use the Input Gain (4) to adjust the signal to 0dB

(yellow LED). The red LED on the meter indicates when the sig-

nal is close to clipping and distorting the output of the mixer.

20. Headphone Mute - Mutes the headphone output. This fea-

ture is very useful for quick cueing during mixing and scratch-

ing.

21. Headphone Mute Indicator - Indicates when Headphone

Mute (20) has been engaged.

22. Crossfader Reverse Indicator - Indicates when crossfader

reverse has been engaged.

23. Crossfader - The crossfader fades between channel 1 and

channel 2. The taper (curve) of the crossfader is determined by

the crossfader curve control (23). The direction of the curve is

determined by the crossfader reverse control (24).
