Istruzzjonijiet Operattivi
1. Channel Controls (Mono Channels 1-4)
- QLIGĦ: Adjusts the input sensitivity for the microphone or line input. Set this to achieve a healthy signal level without clipping.
- COMP (Kompressur): A "one-knob" compressor for dynamic processing. Turn clockwise to increase compression. The LED indicates compression activity.
- EQ (Ekwalizzatur):
- GĦOLJA: Jaġġusta l-frekwenzi tat-treble.
- MID: Jaġġusta l-frekwenzi tan-nofs il-medda.
- BAXX: Jaġġusta l-frekwenzi tal-bass.
- AUX: Sends a portion of the channel signal to the AUX send output, typically used for monitor mixes or external effects.
- PAN: Jippożizzjona s-sinjal tal-kanal fil-kamp stereo (mix-xellug għal-lemin).
- MUTE: Jissikket il-kanal.
- LED CLIP: Illuminates when the input signal is too high, indicating potential distortion. Reduce the GAIN if this LED lights up frequently.
- Fader tal-Kanal: Adjusts the overall volume of the channel in the main mix.

2. Stereo Channels (5/6, 7/8)
These channels offer similar controls but are designed for stereo line-level sources. They typically have fewer EQ bands and no compressor.
3. Main Mix Section
- AUX SENDS: Controls the overall level sent to the AUX output.
- AUX RETURNS: Controls the level of signals returning from external effects processors connected to the AUX return inputs.
- FADER TAT-TAĦLITA EWLENIJA: Jikkontrolla l-volum ġenerali tal-ħruġ tat-taħlita stereo prinċipali.
- METRI TAL-LIVELL: Il-miters LED juru l-livell tal-ħruġ tat-taħlita prinċipali. Immira għal livelli ta' madwar 0 dB biex tevita l-qtugħ.
- PHONES/CTRL ROOM: Adjusts the volume for the headphone and control room outputs.
- USB/2-TR TO MAIN: Routes the USB or 2-Track input signal to the main mix.
4. USB Audio Interface Operation
When connected to a computer, the Q1204USB acts as a standard audio interface. No special drivers are typically required for basic operation on most modern operating systems. You can record the main stereo mix to your computer or play back audio from your computer through the mixer's main outputs.
