Introduction
Thank you for purchasing this Cadac Live1 audio mixing console.
First founded in 1967, Cadac products have indisputably become the
benchmark for sound reinforcement consoles. The Cadac Live1 Series is the
fi rst truly compact Cadac mixer, and makes available many of the features of
our world-famous large-scale theatre and touring desks in a smaller, simpler
and more portable package. Nevertheless, you will still fi nd the attention to
detail, high quality audio circuitry and reliability on which the reputation of the
Cadac brand is built enshrined in your Live1
.
Overview
The Live1 is a high-quality, portable, non-modular audio mixing console
designed primarily for either FOH or monitor use as part of a live sound
reinforcement system in small to medium-sized venues. It is also suitable
for use as a high-quality tracking console for location or studio recording
applications. It is available in three frame sizes, with 8, 16 or 24 mono channels;
these confi gurations are referred to as the Live1 1642, Live1 2442 and Live1
3242 respectively.
In addition to the mono mic/line channels, all frame sizes contain four stereo line
input channels. The Live1 is also equipped with four pannable audio subgroups,
six mono auxiliary sends, six pannable mono auxiliary returns and two routable
stereo returns, as well as a comprehensive complement of talkback, metering
and master control facilities.
