Introduction
Thank you for buying a SPIRIT FOLIO 4 mixer, brought to you with pride by the SPIRIT team of Peter, Graham,
Malcolm, Martin, Peter, Brian, George, Colin, Tony, James, Mukesh, Andy, Candy and Simon. We hope you have
as much fun as we did!
Owning a SPIRIT console brings you the expertise and support of one of the industry’s leading manufacturers and
the results of over 20 years experience supporting some of the biggest names in the business.
Built to the highest standards using quality components, FOLIO 4 has evolved from the acclaimed FOLIO mixer
with the addition of 4 Audio Subgroups, 8 Auxiliary Sends, Stereo Effects Returns, Dual VU/PPM Metering and
comprehensive monitoring.
We have designed FOLIO 4 to be an instinctive and simple console to operate, but a few minutes spent reading
this manual will help you to become familiar with the product away from the pressure of a live session, and allow
you to gain full benefit from the superb performance which it offers.
Above all, remember that your SPIRIT mixer is designed to extend your creativity. The more that you explore the
controls and the effect they have on the sound output, the more you will appreciate how you can influence and
enhance the final sound.
