General Description

1.01

The Cloud CXM mixer is primarily designed for 'live' discotheque use, yet it is equipped
with such flexible facilities that it may successfully be used in a wide range of applications
such as broadcast and production studios.

The console has advanced specifications and rugged construction. Its compact
dimensions make effective use of limited space such as in DJ booths and small studios.

1.02

The main frame, complete with master module, is available in three sizes, with space for
8, 12, or 16 channel modules. Two different types of input channel modules are available,
one being specifically designed for music programme, the other with features to suit a
microphone input. A stylish angle mounting kit is supplied with the main frame. If desired
this can be discarded to allow flat panel mounting. The 8 module main frame can be 19"
rack mounted and occupies 9U of rack space. See figure 1 for template and cut-out
details.

1.03

The PSU 1040 power supply is designed to be surface mounted remotely from the mixer.
The main 

±

 17.5V DC power rails have a slow rise characteristic to reduce switch on

thumps. In addition, a separate 

±

 15V DC provides power for headphone amplifiers and

display drivers. Microphone phantom power is provided and can be configured to operate
from + 17.5V DC or + 48V DC. A mains input in the range 220 to 240 volts at 40 - 60 Hz
is required and a moulded mains lead is supplied with the unit. When a fused plug is
fitted, this should have a rating of 1A.
