OWNERS MANUAL
Thank you for purchasing the ROLLS MX902 Professional Mixer. This unit is designed and manufactured to provide
years of useful service. Please read the following manual carefully.
The MX902 is a compact mixer for small mixing applications. It has an external power supply adding to it's already
quiet and transparent operation. An important feature of the MX902 is it's ability to operate on +12 to +16 Volts DC.
This means that the unit is perfect for mobile sound reinforcement where a car or camera battery may be the only
source of power. The MX902 is in a durable steel chassis, and may be optionally rackmounted.
FEATURES
• Runs on +12 Volts DC - perfect for mobile operation
• 3 XLR Mic Inputs each with trim control
• 9 Total 1/4" unbalanced inputs, RCA Tape Inputs
• +24 Volt Phantom Power
• 2-band EQ
• 2 Auxiliary Sends; 1 pre-fade, 1 post-fade
• 2 Stereo Auxiliary Returns
• Balanced 1/4" Outputs
Tape Outputs are pre-Master fader
Tape Inputs share the Aux 1 bus
• Headphone Output w/level control
INSPECTION
1. Unpack and inspect the MX902 box and package.
If obvious physical damage is noticed, contact the carrier immediately to make a damage claim. We suggest saving the
shipping carton and packing materials for safely transporting the unit in the future.
2. Please complete the Warranty Registration Card and return it to the factory.

STEREO EFFECTS DEVICE
SIGNAL PROCESSOR CONNECTION
Use Aux 1 Output to connect to the Input of your signal processor which may be an echo unit, a
reverb, or multi effects unit. Aux 1 is used because the signal is taken after the channel fader
which is a typical setup for a signal processor. The right and left outputs of the processor are then
connected to the Aux 1 Right and Left Return jacks. The level of signal going into the signal pro-
cessor is controlled by the Aux 1 control on each individual MX902 channel, and the signal
processors input level control. The level of signal going back into the MX902 is controlled by Aux 1
Return Level control on the MX902 front panel, and by the signal processors output level control.

LIVE CONNECTION EXAMPLE
The diagram shown below is a possible connection scheme for a live application. Connect instru-
ments and microphones to the appropriate input jacks. If condenser microphones requiring phan-
tom power are being used, press the Phantom Power switch in. Aux 2 is used as a monitor output
because the signal is taken before the channel fader - this is typically a monitor send. Aux 1 may
be connected to a signal processor as shown on page 4.
Connect the Right and Left main outputs to the main amplification system. If the system being
used is mono, either MX902 Right or Left output may be used.
