EURORACK UB1002FX/UB1202FX
This illustration shows a typical arrangement for a live setup.
Two vocal microphones and the line outputs of a guitar and a
bass amplifier are connected to the mono channels of the
UB1202FX. A keyboard and a drum computer are connected to
the stereo channels. The power amplifier in your sound system
is connected to the main outputs; equipment such as
compressors, equalizers or crossovers are located between
the mixer and the amp in the signal path. If you wish to make a
live recording, you can connect your recording equipment (in
this case, a minidisk recorder) to the CD/tape outputs.
A CD player that is playing during intermissions is connected via
the CD/tape inputs. If you connect a recorder/player combo
(e. g. a tape deck recorder), the CD/TAPE TO MIX switch should
not be pressed during a recording because this way the signal
intended for recording would be directly re-routed back to the
mixing console, and then back to the recorder... this would cause
a feedback loop as soon as you hit the record button. A loud,
unpleasant, even painful sound would result.
If you are using an external effects processor (wired as
shown in the illustration), please make sure that the FX SEND
control in channel 11/12 is turned all the way down
counterclockwise to avoid creating a feedback loop.
4. INSTALLATION
4.1 Mains connection
AC POWER IN
Connect the power supply to the 3-pin mains connector on the
rear of the console. Use the AC adapter supplied to connect the
console to the mains. The adapter complies with all applicable
safety standards.
+
Please use only the power supply unit provided
with the console.
+
Never connect the EURORACK to the power supply
unit while the latter is connected to the mains! First
connect the console to the power supply unit, then
connect the power supply unit to the mains.
+
Please note that both the power supply unit and
the mixing console heat up considerably during
operation. This is completely normal.
4.2 Audio connections
You will need a large number of cables for different
applications. The illustrations below show how the connectors
should be wired. Be sure to use only high-grade cables.
Please use commercial RCA cables to connect the CD/tape
inputs and outputs.
You can, of course, also connect unbalanced equipment to
the balanced inputs/outputs. To do this, use either mono plugs or
stereo plugs with the ring and sleeve bridged (pins 1 and 3 in the
case of XLR connectors).
+
Caution! Never use unbalanced XLR connectors
(PIN 1 and 3 connected) on the MIC input connectors
when using the phantom power supply.
