3 Applications
The 3-channel mixer MPX-30DMP is designed
for any private or professional DJ applications. It
offers connections for units with line level (e. g.
CD player), turntables and a DJ microphone.
The integrated MP3 player is an additional audio
source: It will replay MP3 audio files from USB
storage media (e. g. USB flash drives) and
SD/SDHC cards (32 GB max.). Prefader listen-
ing to all audio sources via headphones is avail-
able.
Set up the mixer on its own or install it into a con-
trol console.

Connect units with line level output (e. g.
CD player, tape deck, radio) to
– the input LINE 1/PHONO 1 of channel CH 1;
the button (27) next to this input must be
disengaged
– the input LINE 2 of channel CH 2
