Mixer sounds noisy Check to make sure that the microphone levels are turned all of the way down if a microphone is not being used. The input signal may be too loud for the input gain control setting that you were using. If the distortion goes away, then you need to turn down the INPUT GAIN CONTROL. Microphone doesn't work Sound is distortedLine or CD input Troubleshooting Problem / Symptom Sound is distorted Phono Input Possible Cause/ Solution Only plug turntables into this input, do not plug in CD players or other Line Level sources.
