The Master Section:
15. LEFT, RIGHT AND MIX BALANCED OUTPUTS: Use
these jacks to send the mixer’s output signal(s) to the
house power amplifier(s) (see pages 9–13). For the XLR
jacks, pin 2 = “+,” pin 3 = “–,” and pin 1 = shield. For
the 1/4” jacks, tip = “+,” ring = “–,” and sleeve = shield.
16
16. TAPE IN/TAPE OUT JACKS: Use these jacks to connect
to the record and playback jacks of a cassette tape deck.
Because the tape in jacks are fed directly into the left
and right master faders, use the tape deck’s output level
control or an in-line attenuator to adjust the level of the
playback signal.
15
17
18
19
17. AUX SEND JACKS: Use these jacks to send the aux sig-
nals to your monitor amps and/or external effects. Aux 1
and 2 are sends only, while aux 3 and 4 can be used as
an effects loop along with the aux 3 and 4 return jacks
(#19). (See pages 8–13). The mix for each aux send jack
is set by the channel aux controls (#9, 10). The master
aux 1 fader (#30, page 6) sets the overall signal output
level for the aux 1 jack, while the aux 2, 3 and 4 send
controls (#24, page 6) set the overall signal output level
for the aux 2, 3 and 4 jacks.
20
21
18. PFL OUTPUT JACK: Use this jack to send the channel’s
PFL signal outputs to a studio monitor power
amp/speaker or to a headphone distribution box for
additional monitoring capabilities.
22
23
24
19. AUX RETURN JACKS: Use these jacks to return the
processed signal from an external effect into the master
mix. These jacks are stereo 1/4” connectors – ring =
right, tip = left, sleeve = shield.
25
26
27
28
20. POWER: This switch applies the power to the mixer. The
mixer is on when the top of the switch is depressed, off
when the bottom of the switch is depressed. The adja-
cent LED illuminates when the power is on.
29
21: OUTPUT LED METERS/PEAK INDICATORS: These LED
meters monitor the output signals sent to the balanced
output jacks (#15). The meter selector switch (#22)
determines whether the meters monitor the left and right
output signals or the aux 1 and mix output signals.
When the LEDs illuminate into the upper red areas, the
signals are near clipping and may need to be reduced to
avoid distortion.
30
31
32
22: METER SELECTOR SWITCH: When the switch is in the
out position, the LED meters (#21) monitor the left and
right output signals. When the switch is depressed, the
LED meters monitor the aux 1 and mix output signals.

25. AUX RETURNS: Use these controls to adjust the level of the
signals from the aux 3 and 4 return jacks (#19, page 5).
26. AUX PANS: Use these controls to set the balance of the aux 3
21
and 4 return signal sent to the left and right master faders (#31).
27. HEADPHONES/PFL LEVEL: Use this control to adjust the output
signal level at the headphones/PFL jack (#28).
28. HEADPHONES/PFL JACK: Use this jack to connect a pair of
stereo headphones to the mixer. The signal at this jack is taken
from the PFL bus, therefore the channel PFL buttons must be
depressed in order to hear their signals through the headphones.
22
23
24
25
27
28
29. PFL LEFT/RIGHT/MIX: These switches, when depressed, send
the corresponding PFL signals to the headphones/PFL jack (#28)
and to the PFL output jack (#18).
26
30. AUX 1 MASTER FADER: Use this control to set the overall out-
put signal level at the aux 1 send jack (#17, page 5). A fader has
been chosen to provide ease of control of aux 1 since this is typ-
ically used as an output signal for the stage monitors.
29
31. LEFT/RIGHT MASTER FADERS: Use these controls to set the
overall output signal levels at the left and right balanced output
jacks (#15, page 5), as well as the signal level sent to the mix
master fader (#32).
30
31
32
32. MIX MASTER FADER: Use this control to set the overall output
signal level at the mix balanced output jacks (#15, page 5). The
left and right master faders (#31) must be set at an appropriate
level so that a signal of sufficient amplitude is sent to the mix
master fader.

Equalization Diagrams:
Each input channel of the CSM8/12/16/24 has three bands of equalization which let you alter the tonal characteristics
of the input signal. The EQs may be used to add “color” or to compensate for inadequacies of the original signal. They also
may be used to cut frequencies to help eliminate unnatural sounds or to de-emphasize over-pronounced tones, and to help
prevent acoustic feedback. Each EQ has a range of 30dB (+/-15dB).
•The high EQ for each channel is a “shelving” type, with an action point (+6dB) at 6kHz, reaching maximum
effect at 10kHz and above.
•The middle EQ for each channel is a “peaking” type, which affects frequencies from 800Hz to 5kHz, centered
at 2kHz.
•The low EQ for each channel is a “shelving” type with an action point (+6dB) at 250Hz, reaching maximum
effect at 100Hz and below.

Differences in Cable Types:
This manual makes reference to different types of cables; in particular, balanced and unbalanced signal cables and
speaker cables. These are not the only types of cables associated with sound reinforcement, but they are similar enough to
each other to warrant a more descriptive explanation. For example, the three 1/4”-terminated cables below may look alike
at first, but upon closer examination their differences become apparent.

CSM8/12/16/24 Console Mixer
Connecting External Signal Processors:
There are several ways to use external signal processors with the CSM8/12/16/24. Each of the mixer’s input channels has its
own Insert jack, allowing a processor to be used on that particular channel. Figures 1 and 2 below show two ways of con-
necting a signal processor to the channel Insert jacks.
The mixer’s master section has two stereo effects loops available (Aux 3 and Aux 4), allowing a processor to be added to any
or all of the input signals. Figures 3 and 4 below show the basic connection of two types of stereo processors to the aux
loops.
Each channel’s Aux 3 and Aux 4 levels control the amount of signal sent from each channel to the aux loops. The master Aux
3 and Aux 4 Send, Return and Pan control the amount of signal sent to the processor, the amount of processed signal
returned to the mix, and how much of the processed signal is applied to the left and right output signals.
(See pages 4 through 6 for additional information on the insert jacks, the aux loops, and their controls.)
