Rack Mounting the Onyx 1640
The Rack Ear brackets supplied with the Onyx 1640 allow
the mixer to be mounted in a standard 19" rack.
The mixer will take up 14 rack spaces in its normal Pod po-
sition, and you should allow an extra 1 or 2 rack spaces above
to make your connections. (If you have rear-mounted the Pod,
the mixer will take up 12 rack spaces.)
The mixer comes with a left and a right rack ear bracket,
and a little plastic bag containing six countersunk screws
(longer than the original screws).
Tools Required:
One Phillips screwdriver.
Procedure:
1. Turn off the mixer, and disconnect the power cord, and all
connecting cords.
2. Place the mixer face up on a soft and dry fl at surface.
3. Remove the six screws as shown below, and keep them in
a safe place for further use. Do not remove all the screws
on each side, as two remain in place as shown. If you are
not planning on using the old screws again, take them
down to your local recycling plant. They may give you
some money just to go away.
4. Using only the new screws supplied, secure the rack ear
brackets to each side of the mixer as shown. Hand-tighten
the screws securely. The brackets are marked left and
right, so make sure they go on the correct side.
5. Offer up the mixer to your rack and secure it in place
with eight rack screws (not supplied). Remember to leave
enough room at the top so you can easily make your con-
nections.
6. That's about it really. Take the rest of the day off — you
have done well.
