If any damage is found, notify the shipping company and call CARVIN immediately. In the event you have to reship your mixer, always use the original carton and packing material. [. . . ] The other common cause for the amp to protect is if it is connected to shorted speaker cables or an inappropriate speaker load. If your amp goes into protect mode for a shorted cable turn the mixer off, locate and replace the bad cable and then turn the mixer back on. The meter calibration as shipped from the factory is +4db at the balanced outputs equals a "0" VU indication on the LED meters. The meters can be calibrated to your tape deck or other equipment in your studio by inserting a small flat blade screw driver into the CAL adjustment holes and rotating the level trimmers to the desired level. 9 10 456 3. THE SENDS MASTER CONTROLS - Located just below 7 6 5 4 3 3 7 2 2 8 the graphic equalizer are four controls labeled MON 1, MON 2, 89 1 1 9 MON EFF 1, and EFF 2. The SENDS master level controls set the overall output 3 4 5 6 7 3 4 5 6 7 2 8 2 8 level that is sent to the monitor and effects output jacks. 1 9 1 9 0 10 0 10 EFF 1 SENDS EFF 2 The internal DSP effects unit is controlled by EFF2 send. For best results set this send as high as possible, this will give you the lowest noise situation. If this control is set too high digi tal clipping (grunge) may occur, this is a very un-musical sounding form of distortion that must be avoided at all cost. Monitor amp input level controls should be set at maximum (or at least half maximum). The overall volume of the monitor speakers is then controlled from the monitor SENDS master control(s) at the mixer. In general you may require two or even more separate monitor mixes to satisfy the needs of the performers. (For example: The singer usually wants to hear mainly vocals in his monitor mix but the drummer may want to hear more bass and less vocals in his monitor mix. ) Effects units may or may not have an input level control. If your unit has an input level control it should be set relatively high (at least half of the maximum setting) when used with the DX Series mixers. Then you can control the overall input level at the effects unit from the appropriate SENDS master control. THE RETURNS MASTER CONTROLS - All DX Series mix- 3 4 5 6 7 3 4 5 6 7 8 2 8 ers provide three stereo return inputs. Each EFFECTS RETURN 0 A 10 B knob adjusts the level of that effects signal that is returned to 3 4 5 6 7 3 4 5 6 7 8 2 8 the mix. Use the EFFECTS RETURN controls to adjust the 21 9 1 9 0 10 overall levels of your effects as they appear at your two-track 0MON10 1 C / TAPE or mono mix. This return controls the level of the signal as it leaves the internal digital effects unit. If you wish, you can override the internal DSP return and use the RTN A return for an outboard effect return simply by inserting a plug into the EFF RTN A jack. When using the built-in Digital Reverb it is best to set the EFF 2 send level at the channels and at the EFF 2 send master fairly high (at least half way to three quarters up) while keeping the RTN A control less than half way. The control RTN A/MON 1 allows you to mix a portion of the returned effect in RTN A into the monitor feed MON 1.
