HOOKUP DIAGRAMS
Quick Start
1. Start with the following settings on the
back of the SRM450:
Turn the
POWER
switch off (down).
Set the
TIMED TURNOFF, CONTOUR,
and
LOW CUT
switches out.
WARNING:
Turn the
LEVEL
control down
(counterclockwise)
before every use. If not,
you could be in for a
startling surprise, especially if the last
time you used it was with a microphone
and now you want to connect a line-
level source.
2. Connect the output from your signal
source (mixing console, microphone,
preamp, or other mic- or line-level
source) directly to the
INPUT
connector
on the back of the SRM450. It accepts
balanced line-level signals from mixers,
preamplifiers, CD players, tape decks,
etc., and accepts direct connections from
dynamic microphones.
3. Connect the supplied AC power cord to
the IEC socket on the back of the
SRM450. Plug the other end into an AC
outlet properly configured with the
correct voltage for your particular model.
4. Turn on your signal source. Make sure its
Master Volume control (if it has one) is
turned all the way down.
5. Turn on the SRM450
POWER
switch.
6. Start the signal source, whether it be
speaking into a microphone or starting a
CD player. Adjust any volume controls on
the signal source for normal operation.
7. Slowly turn up the
LEVEL
control on
the back of the SRM450 until the
desired volume is reached (and the
PEAK
light does not come on).
Always
wear hearing protectors if you are close
when it is playing at high levels.
8. If there is no sound,
always
turn down
the SRM450 LEVEL control before
investigating. There may be a mixer or
preamplifier mute or tape switch
engaged, or a mic switch off.
