CONSOLE
Your choice of a SPIRIT Monitor console has provided you
with a professional product capable of top quality sound mix-
ing. Good results will however only come through
experience and time spent understanding the facilities on
your console. Rehearsal sessions and live performances must
focus on the skill and creativity of the artists, which must not
be hindered by unfamiliarity and difficulty with the operation
of the console. It is important to recognise, and learn by ex-
periment, the importance of correct choice of inputs,
microphone placement and control settings, particularly with
respect to feedback avoidance.
Suitable initial control positions are shown on the front panel
drawing inside the rear cover.
Initial Set Up
The diagram on page 7 demonstrated how the matching of in-
put gain to the signal source was crucial to avoid distortion at
one extreme and excessive noise at the other. Set up individ-
ual input channel as follows:
•
Connect the input required (microphone, keyboard etc.)
Note: Phantom powered mics should be connected before
the +48V is switched on.
•
Set Output faders at 0, input faders at 0, channel monitor
sends fully anticlockwise (off) and set power amplifier lev-
els to about 70%.
•
With a typical performance level signal present, press the
PFL button on the particular channel, monitoring the level
on the Wedge(PFL) meter.
