You have just purchased your DJ Setup and want to get everything connected so you can have a mix. However, you want to make sure you look after your equipment in the best way well this will be the guide for you:
Powering On
Firstly connect up all the power cable for your Players, Mixers and Speakers. However, do not power any thing on just yet. You will want to power up your devices a safe way so I would recommend firstly making sure that all of the Gain and Level controls are turned down fully.
Next you will want to power on the Mixer and Players. Let these boot up fully without touching any Gain & Level controls. Now you can power on your speakers.
By doing this you will minimize the event of blowing the speakers or causing any other issues to your equipment.
It recommended that you always slowly bring a level into the mixer so you can see how much you will be sending to the speakers before turning the speakers up. That way you can slowly turn up the speakers until you have reached your desired level.
Powering Down
Firstly turn down the music you are playing on the mixer by reducing the channel faders. Then you can turn down the gain controls for each channel and the master level control until everything has been reduced.
Important: Do not unplug any cables from the units or speakers until all Gain & Level controls have been turned down to the minimum on the units involved in your setup.
Now you turn down the speakers and then power off the speakers. Once done Power down your mixer & players and then carefully unplug your cables so you can pack up and store while the setup is not in use.
