Connection: Stereo Mini (headphone or line-out source) to Mono ¼ inch
Plug this into your MP3 Player (headphone or line out jack) (black end to MP3 Player)
and attach each coloured end to one of these, then connect to any of the ¼ inch inputs for Channels 1/2/3/4. If you are using the this kind of source as backing tracks, you will probably run these two connections to Channels 3 and 4. In this case you will need to control volume and tone control from the sound source. You will not have much control through the L1 .

If you prefer not to use two Channels you can use this (occasionally controversial approach of summing to mono without electronics to support it). This approach let's you merge both Stereo outputs to a single output. You can run this to Channel 2 and control it with the R1 Remote.
Attach coloured ends to this:
Male (pointy) end then plugs into
Channel 1 or 2 (allows control of tone and relative volume from R1 Remote)
-= or =-
Channel 3 or 4 (control from music source)
Since the L1 is mono, there is no particular reason to use two channels.
