18 XENYX 1002SFX / XENYX 1202SFX XENYX 1002SFX / XENYX 1202SFX Controls (EN) Step 2: Controls (7) PAN - The PAN control determines the position of the channel signal within the stereo image. This control This chapter describes the various control elements of your mixing features a constant-power characteristic, which means console. All controls, switches and connectors will be discussed the signal is always maintained at a constant level, in detail. irrespective of position in the stereo panorama. (1) MIC - Each mono input channel offers a balanced (8) LEVEL - The LEVEL control determines the level of the microphone input via the XLR connector and also features channel signal in the main mix. switchable +48 V phantom power supply for condenser microphones. The preamps provide undistorted and noise-free gain as is typically known only from costly outboard preamps. (9) CLIP - The CLIP LEDs of the mono channels illuminate when the input signal is driven too high, which could cause distortion. If this happens, use the GAIN control to reduce the preamp level until the LED does not (2) LINE IN - Each mono input also features a balanced line light anymore. input on a ¼" connector. Unbalanced devices (mono jacks) (10) STEREO LINE IN - Each stereo channel has two balanced can also be connected to these inputs. Please remember line level inputs on ¼" jacks for left and right channels. that you can only use either the microphone or the line If only the jack marked "L" (left) is used, the channel input of a channel at any one time. You can never use operates in mono. The stereo channels are designed to both simultaneously! handle typical line level signals. Both inputs will also (3) GAIN - Use the GAIN control to adjust the input accept unbalanced jacks. The USB audio will be routed to gain. This control should always be turned fully the last pair of stereo channels. Inserting a jack connector counterclockwise whenever you connect or disconnect a will disconnect the USB signal and select the audio from signal source to one of the inputs. Turn the GAIN knob up the jack. The Left (MONO) function is not available on the while singing or playing until the loudest peaks cause the last stereo channel.

However, since the FX send All bands provide boost or cut of up to 15 dB. In the central buses are both mono, a mono sum is first taken from the position, the equalizer is inactive. stereo input before it is sent to the FX bus. (5) LOW CUT - In addition, the mono channels are equipped with a steep LOW CUT filter designed to eliminate unwanted low- frequency signal components. (6) FX - FX sends enable you to feed signals via a variable control from one or more channels and sum these signals to a bus. The bus appears at the console's FX send output and can be fed from there to an external effects device. The return from the effects unit is then brought back into the console on the stereo channels. If returning an external FX via a stereo channel, be careful to keep the FX control of that channel at minimum to prevent feedback in the FX loop. Each FX send is mono and features up to +15 dB gain. The FX send is routed directly to the built-in effects processor. (12) BAL - 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. (13) 12 dB BOOST - The stereo inputs have this switch to help match home-recording level inputs to studio level inputs. (14) FX TO MAIN - The FX TO MAIN control feeds the built-in effects signal into the main mix. If the control is turned all the way counterclockwise, no effects signal is present in the sum signal of the mixing console. Quick Start Guide 19 (15) FX SEND - The FX SEND connector outputs the signal (23) +48 V - The +48 V LED lights up when phantom power you picked up from the individual channels using is on. The PHANTOM switch activates the phantom power the FX controls. You can connect this to the input of supply on the XLR connectors of all mono channels. an external effects device in order to process the FX bus' master signal. Once an effects mix is created, the processed signal can then be routed from the effects (24) POWER - The POWER LED indicates that the console is powered on. device outputs back into a stereo input.

This LED should always be on. However, make FX signal. The PHONES/MONITOR control adjusts the level sure that the CLIP LED lights up only sporadically. If it is of both headphones and main monitor outputs. lit constantly, you are overdriving the effects processor, (17) MAIN MIX - The MAIN OUT connectors are balanced mono jacks. The MAIN MIX fader adjusts the volume of which leads to unpleasant distortion. If this occurs, turn the FX controls down somewhat. these outputs. (27) PROGRAM - The PROGRAM control has two functions: (18) STREAM INPUT - The STREAM INPUTs are used to bring an external signal source (for example, a CD player via the RCA connectors with 12dB gain or a computer via the USB connector) into the console. They can also be used as a by turning the PROGRAM control, you dial the number of an effect. The number of the preset you just dialed up blinks in the display.

This mutes the main mix signal in the monitor while routing the FX SEND output to the monitor(s).
