9 GENERAL PRECA UTIONS Avoid storing or using the mixing console in conditions of excessive heat or cold, or in positions where it is likely to be subject to vibration, dust or moisture. Do not use any liquids to clean the fascia of the unit: a soft dry cloth is ideal.
10 INITIAL WIRING CONSIDERA TIONS For optimum performance, it is essential for the earthing system to be clean and noise free, as all signals are referenced to this earth. A central point should be decided on for the main earth point system, and all earths should be 'star fed' from this poin t.
11 POINTS T O REMEMBER In all cases, use good quality twin screened audio cable. Check for instability at the output. Always connect both conductors at both ends, and ensure that the screen is only connected at one end. Do not disconnect the mains earth from each piece of equipment.

17 1. MIC/LINE INPUT (see page 20): This section features [LEVEL], [EQ-HI] and [EQ-LOW] controls for the microphone/line level input stage. The combi-XLR connector accepts XLR connectors for microphone use and 1/4” Jack plugs for mono line level devices (CD/tape players, drum machines, synthesizers etc.
18 REAR CONNECT OR P ANEL 1. FX LOOP [AUX] -RCA Phono Connectors Use these sockets to connect any external effects processor . Alternatively , you can use the [FX RETURN] sockets to connect an additio.
19 FRONT P ANEL 1. CH1: 3 Position curve control and Reverse These controls allow you to change the curve of the input fader and reverse the fader action. See also page 23. 2. X-F ADER: Rotary position curve control and Reverse These controls allow you to change the curve of the x-fader and reverse the fader action.
20 OPERA OPERA OPERA OPERA OPERA TION TION TION TION TION GETTING ST ARTED Before use, please observe the following guidelines: CONNECTIONS: Before making any connections, make sure that the power on all your equipment is turned OFF . Connect the audio cables for a typical system setup as shown on page 13.
21 LEVEL CONTROL This control sets the input level for the microphone or line-level device. At the fully anti-clockwise position there will be no sound. As the control is moved in a clockwise direction the level will be gradually increased until, at the fully clockwise position, the level will be at its maximum.
22 CHANNELS 1 & 2 This section of the mixer features all the main controls for input channels 1 & 2, most of which come under the control of the digital signal processor (DSP).
23 When using high output playback devices it may be necessary to select the -10dB pad or the -20dB pad (or both) to stop the inpu t channel from overloading. The locations of these pads are shown on page 15. TRIM The trim controls allow a +/-15dB trim range to be applied to each channel’s signal.
24 FX SEND & RETURN / A UX This section features controls for the effects send/return loop, which can also be used as an auxiliary input/record output.
25 RETURN / A UX -LEVEL This control sets the amount of signal coming back from the connected effects unit. At the fully anti-clockwise position there will be no sound. As the control is moved in a clockwise direction the input level will be gradually increased until, at the fully clockwise position, the input level will be at its maximum.
26 MASTER / BOO TH OUTPUT This section of the mixer features controls and indications for the master and booth outputs. MASTER LEVEL This control adjusts the level of the master output volume on both the balanced and unbalanced outputs. At the fully anti-clockwise position there will be no sound.
27 THE EXCITER At the fully anti-clockwise position of the [MIX] control 0%, no EXCITER will be applied to the main mix. As the control is rotated clockwise the EXCITER is gradually added to the mix. At the fully clockwise position of the [MIX] control 100%, the amount of the EXCITER added to the mix will be 100%.
28 HEADPHONE MONIT OR This section of the mixer features all the headphone monitoring controls which, again, come under the control of the DSP . This allows the inclusion of a special cue EQ control which filters-out unwanted frequencies, letting you tune-in to defined elements within the sound and create a perfect mix.
29 X-F MONIT OR When the [MASTER/CUE SELECT] is set to CUE the [X-F MONITOR] control adjusts the relative mix balance between CH1 and CH2. When fully over to the LEFT position only CH1 sound will be audible. As the control is moved to the RIGHT CH2 sound will b e gradually introduced until, at half-way , CH1 and CH2 sound will be equal.
30 THE BPM FX MODULE THE BPM FX MODULE THE BPM FX MODULE THE BPM FX MODULE THE BPM FX MODULE OPERA TING CRITERIA This product has been designed to operate most effectively with dance music , i.
31 4) T AP/CLEAR [T AP/CLEAR] button is used to manually 'tap in” a tempo. This function also acts as the BPM range selector . 5) CUTTER (1) This button selects the GA TE effect. The [ X ] encoder controls the [ DEPTH ](MARK:SP ACE RA TIO) of the waveform.
32 BPM FX MIX This fader adjusts the balance between the un-processed sound (original) and processed sound (effect). ON-OFF switc hes These two switches apply the bpm-fx to either of the input channels or the master output. There is a switch in each of the inpu t channels’ areas.
33 QUICK ST ART If you want to quickly try out the performance of 1601E Effects, please read the following points carefully: CONNECTIONS Make sure all connections have been made correctly and the volume controls on mixer and amplifier system are all turned completely down.
34 OPERA TION This section features the BPM and its associated controls. Y ou can set the BPM range, manually override the BPM engine with the se controls and reset the synchronization. BPM RANGE This is where you set the working range of the BPM engine.
35 EFFECT ST ART SYNC The effect sync (LFO waveform) will re-trigger every time any of the following occurs: the BPM FX Mix fader is moved away from the [original] position, either of the BPM FX switches is moved to its [on] position, or the selected effect button (1-5) is pressed.
36 EFFECT CONTR OLS This section deals with the controls dedicated to adjusting and controlling the effect parameters. Elements of each ef fect can be altered in real-time using the X and Y Controls whilst the 3-band filter section lets you choose which part of the sound is af f ected.
37 3-B AND ISOLA T OR The 3-band isolator section allows you to apply the effects to certain frequency bands or the complete audio signal. As an exam ple, effects applied to just the HIGH frequencies will sound very subtle whilst passing the sound through all three bands simultaneously will offer more extreme results.
38 SINGLE/MUL TI MODE OPERA TION This is where you choose the basic operating mode for 1601E. In [A] mode only one of the five effects can be applied at a time.
39 Additional speed settings for FIL TER/FLANGER/P ANNER For example: FIL TER: In single mode, press & hold the FIL TER effect button and then rotate the FX SPEED rotary switch to one of its 5 positi ons to access 1 bar , 2 bar , 4 bar , 8 bar & 16 bar settings.
40 THE EFFECTS THE FIL TER This effect recreates (for many dance music producers and remixers) the most essential part of a classic analogue synthesizer , the filter , and puts it under the direct control of the tempo of the source music via the synchronised Low Frequency Oscillator (LFO).
41 SUB-MENU A special sub-menu for the filter effect lets you choose the LFO (low frequency oscillator) wave shape. There are three types to choose from, each having their own individual characteristics and subsequent affect on the music.
42 THE DELA Y This effect makes a copy of the source signal and then adds it back into the signal after a period of time as set by the BPM an alyser . The fidelity and number of repeats can be set to determine how much this affects the original signal.
43 THE P AN This part of 1601E is quite revolutionary . There have of course been auto-panning devices before, which could use an LFO to mov e a signal around the stereo field, but none which could trigger the LFO from a BPM analyser and certainly none which could move different frequency bands to different pan positions at the same time.
44 THE CUTTER This effect operates in a similar fashion to the filter but on the overall volume of the signal. The Cutter can be set to opera te either as a conventional 'gate' which, each time it is triggered, opens instantly to allow the signal through but then after a short period closes completely to cut off the signal.
45 THE FLANGE The Flanging effect's name was derived from the way it was first produced back in the sixties, by manually slowing a tape spool (touching the sides or 'flanges' of the spool) on a delay tape machine.

52 GL GL GL GL GL OSSAR OSSAR OSSAR OSSAR OSSAR Y Y Y Y Y Amplitude: Another term used for signal level. Attenuate: Reduce the signal level. Attenuator: A device which reduces the signal level. Auxiliary (Aux): An independent mix derived from the channels for various functions.
53 Earth Loop (Ground Loop): The result when the equipment sees more than one path to the system earth. Current flows because a resistive loop susceptible to radio and mains interference is formed. In severe cases this can result in audible hum or buzz in the system.
54 Polarity: Sometimes erroneously referred to as ‘phase’ this is the + / - sense of a balanced signal or loudspeaker connection. Reversed polarity should be avoided and checked for as it can cause uncomfortable phasing effects as the listener moves between the speakers.
