Your mixing console was carefully packed in the factory to guarantee safe transport. Nevertheless, we recommend that you carefully examine the packaging and its contents for any signs of physical damage that may have occurred during transit. Be sure that there is enough space around the unit for cooling purposes and to avoid overheating please do not place your mixing console on high-temperature equipment such as radiators or power amps.
First connect the power supply unit to the console, then connect the power supply unit to the mains. For your own safety, never remove or disable the ground conductor from the unit or on the AC power cord. The unit should always be connected to a mains socket outlet with a protective earthing connection. To arrange for warranty service, please contact the retailer from whom the equipment was purchased. Should your country not be listed, please contact the distributor nearest you.
A list of distributors can be found in the support area of our website www. Registering your purchase and equipment with us helps us process your repair claims quicker and more efficiently. This chapter describes the various control elements of your mixing console. All controls, switches and connectors will be discussed in detail. Use the TRIM control to adjust the input gain.
This control should always be turned fully counterclockwise whenever you connect or disconnect a signal source to one of the inputs. If that unit has an output signal level display, it should show 0 dB during signal peaks.
All mono input channels include a 3-band equalizer. All bands provide boost or cut of up to 15 dB. In the central position, the equalizer is inactive. The circuitry of the British EQs is based on the technology used in the best-known top-of-the-line consoles and providing a warm sound without any unwanted side effects.
The upper HIGH and the lower band LOW are shelving filters that increase or decrease all frequencies above or below their cut-off frequency. The cut-off frequencies of the upper and lower band are 12 kHz and 80 Hz respectively.
The MID band is configured as a peak filter with a center frequency of 2. Unlike shelving filters, the peak filter processes a frequency range that extends upwards and downwards around its middle frequency.
These can be noises created by hand-held microphones, subsonic noise or plosive sounds created by highly sensitive microphones. FX sends enable you to feed signals via a variable control from one or more channels and sum these signals to a bus. The return from the effects unit is then brought back into the console on the stereo channels.
If this were not the case, the effects signal of the channel would remain audible even when the fader is lowered to zero. The PAN control determines the position of the channel signal within the stereo image.
This control features a constant-power characteristic, which means the signal is always maintained at a constant level, irrespective of position in the stereo panorama. The stereo channels are designed to handle typical line level signals. Both inputs will also accept unbalanced connectors. The FX send of the stereo channels functions similar to that of the mono channels. However, since the FX send bus is mono, a mono sum is first taken from the stereo input before it is sent to the FX bus.
The BAL ANCE control determines the levels of left and right input signals relative to each other before both signals are then routed to the main stereo mix bus.
If a channel is operated in mono via the left line input, this control has the same function as the PAN control used in the mono channels. A recording level of 0 dB is recommended for all signal types. A typical studio application of this function is recording music into a digital audio workstation DAW with simultaneous reproduction see ch.
Even though most of the tasks in a studio can nowadays be accomplished using a computer, a mixing console remains an unavoidable piece of equipment that lets you effectively manage audio inputs and outputs: microphone signals need to be preamplified prior to being recorded, and the quality of microphone sound is often worked on; recording and playback signals must be routed to the appropriate connectors or integrated into the mix; the volume of headphones and studio monitors needs to be adjusted, and so on.
The extensively equipped main section of the XENYX mixing consoles provides concrete benefits to you. Your monitor speakers are connected to the control room outputs; the headphones are connected to the headphone output. To make sure that the signal is actually being recorded, use either. Doing so, you can record additional tracks in addition to a signal already brought in so-called overdubs.
Use the direct monitoring function of your DAW. Below, you will find the most frequently asked questions about the Behringer Xenyx Is your question not listed? User Manual. Introduction 1.
