INSTALLATION

The HPFX may be used in a variety of setups including with computer-based recording

systems, digital audio workstations, and ‘traditional” multitrack analog recorders. Self-

contained in an all-steel, single-height 9.5” wide enclosure, the HPFX is designed for

continuous professional use. Because the unit is compact and lightweight, mounting location is

not critical. However, for greater reliability we recommend that you not place the HPFX on top

of power amps, tube equipment, or other sources of heat.

AC POWER HOOKUP

The HPFX has an external power supply designed to operate at 110 VAC @ 50 to 60 Hz. Units

manufactured for use outside the United States of America have been modified to comply with

the required electrical specifications. Only use the adapter that came with the HPFX. If the

adapter becomes lost or damaged, contact ART Customer Service for replacement.

AUDIO CONNECTIONS

Audio connections to and from the HPFX are balanced XLR (Pin 2 = Hot (+), Pin 3 = Cold (-),

Pin 1 = Ground) and unbalanced ¼” (Tip = Hot (+), Sleeve = Ground). We recommend using

only high-quality shielded cables equipped with high-quality connectors.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Warning: To avoid the risk of shock or fire, do not expose this unit to moisture. Refer all

servicing to qualified personnel. Do not remove the metal covers; there are no user-

serviceable parts inside. Only use the power adapter that came with this unit or one obtained

from ART’s Customer Service Department.
