MP 24z
DJ MIXER
Data Sheet-1
General Description
e Rane MP 24z Mixer is the standard for night club mix-
ers. Following the advice of the most renowned figures in the
night club market, Rane developed the MP 24z to break down
the limiting barriers of previous mixer designs.
Featuring four Stereo Input mixing Channels, each supplied
with a selection of several Phono and Line Inputs, the MP 24z
easily suits the needs of the most complex audio/video installa-
tions. A total of six Stereo Line Inputs are available plus three
Stereo Phono Inputs.
e Mic Control section of the MP 24z handles two mi-
crophones simultaneously. Both mics may be contoured by the
three-band Mic Equalizer as well as processed through a Mic
Loop jack. On the rear of the unit, an XLR low-Z Main Mic
Input with switchable Phantom Power, and a ¼" hi-Z Aux Mic
Input are both mixable.
e Output section of the MP 24z provides a Master Level
fader, four band Program Equalizer (independent of the Micro-
phone EQ), two auxiliary output controls (Zone and Booth),
a stereo 12-segment Peak Program Meter and full Headphone
Control monitoring and cueing system.
e rear of the MP 24z, besides holding all of the normal In-
put and Output connectors, features a transformer isolated Light
Control Output with associated Level control, balanced XLR
Main Outputs, Program Equalizer EQ Range switch (±4 dB or
±8 dB) and a System Mono switch.
All sliders on the MP 24z are studio-quality faders as found
on high quality audio mixing consoles.
New features have been added to the MP 24z. Active Cross-
fader™ technology combines state of the art voltage controlled
amplifier design with a professional quality crossfader control.
is combination sets new standards for performance, reliability
and serviceability. Virtually all crossfader noise is eliminated.
Channel to channel crosstalk is greatly reduced and the off isola-
tion of the faded channel is greatly increased. Active Crossfader
technology dramatically increases the service life of the cross-
fader. In the unlikely event of crossfader failure, there is no loss
of signal. If a crossfader becomes rough or noisy, it may be “hot-
swapped” during a performance with no interruption of the audio
signal. Simply use the input faders to set the audio levels while
the crossfader is out of service.
Each of the Phono Inputs can be converted to Line Inputs by
moving internal jumpers. Another internal jumper allows defeat-
ing the Booth Ducker circuit when the mic is activated — this
feature has been requested by those wishing to use the Booth
Output as a second record output or second zone. Another
jumper allows the Mic section to be mixed to the Tape Outs
— the default setting is “music only”.
