1. Power Input: Use the included power adapter (12V DC, 5A, center-positive) to connect this
input to your power source.
2. Power Button: Press this button to power MCX8000 on or off. Power on MCX8000 only after
you have connected all of your input devices and before you power on your amplifiers and
loudspeakers. Power off your amplifiers and loudspeakers before powering off MCX8000.
3. Cable Restraint: You can secure the power cable to this restraint to help prevent disconnecting
it accidentally.
4. USB Port: Use a standard USB cable (included) to connect this USB port to an available USB
port on your computer. This connection sends and receives audio and control information to and
from the computer.
5. USB Hub to PC: You can connect an optional USB hard drive (not included) to this powered USB
port. This hub will connect to your computer; you cannot access its content using MCX8000.
6. Master Outputs (XLR, balanced): Use standard XLR cables to connect these outputs to
loudspeakers or an amplifier system. Use the Master knob on the top panel to control the
volume level.
7. Master Outputs (RCA, unbalanced): Use standard RCA cables to connect these outputs to
loudspeakers or an amplifier system. Use the Master knob on the top panel to control the
volume level.
8. Stereo/Mono: Use this switch to set the channel configuration of the Master Outputs: Stereo
(binaural audio using separate left and right channels) or Mono (summed monaural audio
through both left and right channels).
9. Booth Outputs (XLR, balanced): Use standard XLR cables to connect these outputs to booth
monitors or a booth amplifier system. Use the Booth knob on the top panel to control the
volume level.
10. Line Inputs (RCA, unbalanced): Use standard RCA cables to connect these line-level inputs to
an external audio source.
11. Line/Phono Inputs (RCA, unbalanced): Use standard RCA cables to connect these line-level or
phono-level inputs to an external audio source.
12. Phono/Line Switch: Flip this switch to the appropriate position, depending on the device
connected to the Line/Phono Inputs. If you are using phono-level turntables, set this switch to
Phono to provide the additional amplification needed for phono-level signals. If using a line-level
device, such as a CD player or sampler, set this switch to Line.
13. Grounding Terminal: If using phono-level turntables with a grounding wire, connect the
grounding wire to these terminals. If you experience a low “hum” or “buzz”, this could mean that
your turntables are not grounded.
Note: Some turntables have a grounding wire built into the RCA connection and, therefore,
nothing needs to be connected to the grounding terminal.
14. Mic 1 Input (XLR or 1/4” / 6.35 mm): Use a standard XLR or 1/4” (6.35 mm) cable (not included)
to connect a standard dynamic microphone to this input. Use the Mic 1 Level knob on the top
panel to control the volume level.
15. Mic 2 Input (1/4” / 6.35 mm): Use a standard 1/4” (6.35 mm) cable (not included) to connect a
standard dynamic microphone to this input. Use the Mic 2 Level knob on the top panel to
control the volume level.
16. Kensington

Lock: Use this slot to secure MCX8000 to a table or other surface.
