3, 5 and 7 and in the second pass, on tracks 2, 4, 6 and 8.
CONTROL ROOM OUTPUTS

The control room output is normally connected to the monitor

system in the control room and provides the stereo mix or, when

required, the solo signal.

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 note the important information on the serial number

given in chapter 1.3.3.

3. DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR

24-BIT MULTI-EFFECTS PROCESSOR

Here you can find a list of all presets stored in the multi-effects

processor. This built-in effects module produces high-grade

standard effects such as reverb, chorus, flanger, delay and

various combination effects. The integrated effects module has

the advantage of requiring no wiring. This way, the danger of

creating ground loops or uneven signal levels is eliminated at the

outset, completely simplifying the handling.

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

If you move the FX TO MAIN control, you mix the channel signal

(dry) and the effect signal.

This also goes for mixing effects signals with the monitor mix.

The main difference is that the mix ratio is adjusted using the

FX TO MON control. Of course, a signal has to be fed into the

effects processor via the FX control in the channel strip for both

applications.

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.
