2.4.2 Voltage supply, phantom power and fuse

Fig. 2.15: Voltage supply and fuse

FUSE HOLDER

The console is connected to the mains via the cable supplied

which meets the required safety standards. Blown fuses must

only be replaced by fuses of the same type and rating.
IEC MAINS RECEPTACLE

The mains connection is via a cable with IEC mains connector.

An appropriate mains cable is supplied with the equipment.
POWER

Use the POWER switch to power up the mixing console.

PHANTOM

The PHANTOM switch activates the phantom power supply

for the XLR connectors of the mono channels which is required

to operate condenser microphones. The red +48 V LED lights up

when phantom power is on. As a rule, dynamic microphones

can still be used with phantom power switched on, provided

that they are wired in a balanced configuration. In case of doubt,

contact the microphone manufacturer!

+

After the phantom power supply has been

switched on, do not connect microphones to the

mixer (or the stagebox/wallbox). Connect the

microphones before you switch phantom power

on. In addition, the monitor/PA loudspeakers

should be muted before activating the phantom

power supply. After switching on, wait approx. one

minute to allow the system to stabilize.

+

Caution! You must never use unbalanced XLR

connectors (PIN 1 and 3 connected) on the MIC

input connectors if you want to use the phantom

power supply.

SERIAL NUMBER

Please take the time to fill out and return the warranty card

within 14 days after the date of purchase. This will entitle you to

benefit from our extended warranty. Alternatively, you can use

our online registration option available on the world wide web

(www.behringer.com). You will find the serial number on the

rear of your mixing console.

3. DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR

Fig. 3.1: Digital effects module (only UB1204FX-PRO)

99 FIRST-CLASS PRESETS

Here is an overview of all of the multi-effects processor’s

presets. The effects module gives you various standard effects,

such as reverb, chorus, flanger, delay, pitch shifter and several

combination effects that have already proved to be indispensable

in our 19" effects processor, the VIRTUALIZER PRO DSP2024P.

You can route signals to the effects processor via aux send 2 in

the channels and the aux send 2 master control. The built-in

stereo effects processor has the advantage that it does not

need to be cabled up. This eliminates any danger of hum or level

mismatch right from the start providing straight-forward

operation.
PARALLEL FX

These effect presets are designed to be added to dry signals.

If you move the STEREO AUX RETURN FX control, you mix the

channel signal (dry) and the effect signal. You can control the

balance between the two signals with the channel fader and the

STEREO AUX RETURN FX control.
INSERT FX (channel muted)

The right column contains effect presets that are used for

complete signal processing. This must not be confused with the

previously discussed “mixing effect”. If you are using insert

presets, you must mute the relevant channel (MUTE/ALT 3-4

switch) and assign only the effect signal to the main mix (STEREO

AUX RETURN FX control).
FX FOOTSW.

Connect a standard foot switch to the foot switch connector;

use this to switch the effects processor on and off. A dot at the

bottom of the display indicates if the effects processor is muted

via the foot switch.

+

On the following page, you will find an illustration

showing how to connect your foot switch correctly.

LEVEL

The LED level meter on the effects module should display a

sufficiently high level. Take care to ensure that the clip LED only

lights up at peak levels. If it is lit constantly, you are overloading

the effects processor and this could cause unpleasant distortion.

The FX control (AUX SEND 2) determines the level that reaches

the effects module.
PROGRAM

You can select the effect preset by turning the PROGRAM

control. The display flashes the number of the current preset. To

recall the selected preset, press the button; the flashing stops.

You can also recall the selected preset with the foot switch.
