mattus123 Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 hey heygot a gig on the weekend using a 4channel mixer, which i have never used beforefrom what i can gather the cross fader if pushed all the way to the right will play the 2 right channels, and if pushed to the left will play the 2 left channels, and if left in the middle it will play all 4 channels (is that correct?)so when i set up the mixer should i set it up that i only use the two left/right most channels and leave the cross fader to the one side (i only use volume faders to mix). or should i use the left most channel and right most channel and leave the cross fader in the middle.cheers guys Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
russell Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 what kind of mixer is it? should be able to switch the crossfader off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattus123 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 djm700its a basic question, its jsut ive never used a 4CH mixer before and im a lil worried ill get up behind the decks, have no clue whats going on and do a shit house set Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OxyKon Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 Does it have a middle setting that says thru?My 800 has that and I always have it set as thru, so I don't accidentally knock it over to 1 side Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattus123 Posted May 8, 2012 Author Share Posted May 8, 2012 i have absolutely no idea, the mixer is at the venue thats pretty much the exact thing im worried about. im guessing the thru setting is the same as having the cross fader in the middle, and plays all channels?

russell Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 the 700 will have a dial for each side of the cross fader that allows you to set it to any channel or like Defkon says, the 'thru' setting. stick it to that and the cross fader is essentially turned off.

Jaz Posted May 8, 2012 Share Posted May 8, 2012 What they said ^With a 4 channel mixer your better off using the level faders on each channel and turning off the crossfader dude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SolDios Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 I might just quickly explain it anywayThis is an 800, but the same thing still apply's.See just above the cross fader, those little switches with A B and THRU on them?Pushing it to the left will assign it to the left side of the cross fader, pushing it to the right will assign it to the right side.You can have more than one channel on one side.

lloydc Posted May 9, 2012 Share Posted May 9, 2012 in answer to OP, i'd make every channel thru and just use the volume faders rather than the cross fader.if you ever need to use the cross fader throughout your mix, just flick the switches accordingly and assign which ever channels you like to either side (A or Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
