OPTIONS
The
MixWizard Series WZ16:2
has a versatile architecture designed to satisfy most
live sound or recording applications you may encounterwithout modification. However,
the following internal options are offered to provide alternative settings for those
applications that may demand them. These options require resoldering of circuit board
links and should only be carried out by competent technical personnel. Further
information is available from your service agent or the
WZ16:2
SERVICE MANUAL
.
PHANTOM POWER DISABLE
It is perfectly safe to connect non-phantom powered sources such as dynamic
microphones to powered XLR sockets providing that balanced leads and sources are
used. The +48V supply is current limited through 6.8k ohm resistors to each XLR to
prevent damage. However, you can disable phantom power to selected channels by
cutting out links on the rear connector circuit assembly. This work should be referred to
your service agent.
ST1, ST2 INPUT SENSITIVITY
The stereo return inputs are set for nominal low level -10dBV operation as is common
with much of the external equipment available today. The console level controls let you
adjust for varying input levels. Most outboard equipment include output level trims. If,
however, you wish to change the sensitivity to high level +4dBu the rear connector
circuit can be reconfigured. This work should be referred to your service agent.
AUX OUT AND A-B OUT BALANCE OPTION
These outputs are impedance balanced on TRS jack to provide interference rejection
when plugged into equipmentwith balanced inputs. It should not normally be necessary to
fit the electronic balance option available. This option also increases the output level to a
n4dBu. Refer this work to your service agent.
CHANNEL PRE-FADE AUX SEND OPTIONS
The pre-fade sends are set post-EQ and post-ON as standard. However, link options on
each channel assembly allow pre-EQ and/or pre-ON if required. This is shown in the
diagram below.
CHANNEL DIRECT OUTPUT SOURCE
The direct outputs are sourced post-fader as standard. A link option is available per
channel to select a pre-fade source. This is shown in the diagram below.
