Mackie M1400/M1400i Hook-Up Guide - Page 2

PRINTING NOTE: These pages were built 21cm wide (8.26in) by 27.94cm (11in) tall to accommodate the printers of both our North American users and our users around the globe. This PDF will print at 100% on both "Letter" sized and "A4" sized paper (with room in the left margin for hole punching). Hello and welcome to one of many downloadable web editions of Mackie's Product Hook-Up Guide. Since 1992, we've been including these helpful "connection maps" in our In Your Face product guides, and we've been urged to continue doing so because they're so gosh-darned helpful. Now, we've split our hook-ups into product famlies, and made them available to you over this new-fangled "Internet" thingy that everyone is talking about these days. There will be documents that cover hooking up our compact VLZ® PRO Series, Analog 8•Bus Series consoles, CFX Series effects mixers, DFX Series compact effects mixers, the D8B digital console, the HDR24/96 hard disk recorder, PPM Series powered mixers, the FR Series amplifiers, SR Series front-of-house mixers, and our Active loudspeakers. Inside you'll find lots of useful information - most likely your questions will be answered here. We realize that there's no possible way to cover every single question or application in so few pages because new ways to use Mackie products are invented every day. You may come up with some ideas on how to do what you want by looking at the various diagrams we've included here. Keep in mind that a good half of the battle in hooking up our products is having the proper connections. Check the cables 'n' plugs that you already have with the diagrams on the next page. We know it may look boring, but one of these drawings could save your life. Well, maybe not your life, but probably a lot of weeping and sorrow. And don't forget to check out the tech tips/FAQs document also available for download on the web at www.mackie.com/techsupport If you don't find the answers you're after, then why not give our mighty Tech Support gang a call? These folks have tons of experience in the real world, and they've got lots of equipment and mixers at their beck and call. They're aching to share their knowledge with you. (And calling them would be a very humanitarian thing to do - they're located in the dank sub-basement of our building and they rarely get visitors. Your call just may be the one that keeps their spirits alive.) Call Mackie Tech Support toll-free (in the U.S.) at 800-258-6883 (Monday through Friday, 7 AM to 5 PM Pacific Time) with any Mackie productquestion you can conjure. Put them through the wringer! We encourage it. Incidentally, the Mackie Product Hook-Up Guide (Web Editions) were put together from within the confines of the Mackie Digital Mosh Pit - located on the second floor near the Area Of Refuge - by the well-meaning, super-preening Mackie Macintosh Department. We used Adobe InDesign®, Illustrator®, Photoshop®, and Acrobat® on a number of suped-up big daddy Macs. Oh yeah: Copyright © 2002 Mackie Designs Inc. All Rights Reserved.
