LACHAPELL AUDIO MODEL 500CS
The 500CS Channel Strip from LaChapell Audio is a complete channel strip featuring a pristine
OpAmp based solid state preamp, high and low pass filters, full 3-band EQ and VCA compressor in
one unit. Each “half” of the unit can function independently for maximum value and versatility. Track
with the preamp, eq and compressor together, then switch to independent mode and use the eq/
compressor side as an outboard processor.

500CS.

UNPACKING: Inspect thoroughly. Although we take extreme care at final assembly and
packing, things can happen during transit. It is very important that you contact Digital Audio
Labs if there is anything broken or damaged upon receipt of package. Included in every
package should be: (1) getting started guide, (1) packet of mounting screws, (1) registration
card. It is a good idea for you to retain the packaging (box & foam case) in case there is a need
to return the unit for service or repair at a later date.
•
SERVICE/REPAIR - WARNING: The user should NOT attempt to service this unit in any way, due
to the risk of electrical shock and the presence of potentially lethal voltages inside the 500CS.
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
•
Always provide adequate ventilation by allowing the top vents of your 500 series power supply
chassis to remain unobscured.
•
Never position the power supply directly above other heat generating sources such as a power
amplifier.
•
Always provide a source to ground (earth.) Never under any conditions should a power cord that
has the third prong for ground missing or defeated be used with the power supply.
•
Do not place the 500CS in an area where there is a potential for fluids to fall, spill into or come in
contact with the 500CS. If you notice fluids or moisture present inside the 500CS DO NOT turn
power on! Contact Digital Audio Labs for direction.
