ATTENTION: RISQUE DE CHOC ELECTRIQUE NE PAS OUVRIR An equilateral triangle enclosing an exclamation point is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and service instructions in the literature enclosed with this unit. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS When using this electronic device, basic precautions should always be taken, including the following: 1. Read all instructions before using the product. Do not use this product near water (e. g. , near a bathtub, washbowl, kitchen sink, in a wet basement, or near a swimming pool, etc. ). This product should be used only with a cart or stand that will keep it level and stable and prevent wobbling. [. . . ] If the unit is damaged, do not return to us, but notify your dealer and the shipping company immediately to make a claim. Such claims must be made by the consignee in a timely manner. ) CONTENTS: · Instruction manual · RPA-2 (verify that the unit's serial number is same as shown on shipping carton) · AC Power cord · Warranty Card POWER CONNECTION The RPA-2 has an internal power supply and is designed to operate from an external AC source. Power requirements for electrical equipment differ from area to area. Be sure to confirm that the voltage selected by the voltage selector switch on the back panel is proper for your area (120VAC/60 Hz or 230VAC/50Hz) per the information below: Europe (except UK): 230V, 50Hz UK and Australia: 240V, 50Hz USA and Canada: 120V, 60 Hz For other areas, please check with local authorities. When ready to operate, plug the AC cord into the power source. Make sure that the unit is turned off before connecting to the AC power source to avoid possible loud transients which can damage your speakers or your ears, especially when monitoring with headphones. 4 FRONT PANEL CONTROLS & CONNECTIONS (1) (2) (3) (6) (7) (8) (9) (10) (11) (12) (4) (5) FRONT PANEL Note: 1 through 5 below are referenced to Channel 1. The other channels are identical. (1) GAIN CONTROL The Gain Control determines the proportion of the channel signal in the mix. (2) CONTOUR CONTROL Adjusting this control will contour the audio, either bringing out more highs and definition or increasing low and mid frequencies to provide more punch. (3) REVERB CONTROL The Reverb Control adjusts the level of signal sent by each channel to the internal Reverb DSP (Digital Sound Processor). The signal sent is mono, post-Contour and will be affected by the channel Gain Control. (4) LINE INPUT The Line input is designed to accept balanced or unbalanced linelevel signals such as those from keyboards, drum machines, or samplers. Use the GAIN control (1) to adjust for the desired level. If a balanced signal is to be connected to the line input, then a 1/4" TRS (stereo) phone plug should be wired for: Tip = positive (+), Ring = negative (-), Sleeve = ground. (5) MIC INPUT The Mic input is an electronically balanced XLR type designed to accept signals from any balanced low impedance (Low Z) microphone. It will be necessary to adjust the channel gain with the input GAIN control (1) to achieve a nominal operating level. The XLR jack is configured for: Pin1 = ground, Pin2 = positive (+), Pin3 = negative (-). 5 (Note: Only either the Mic or the Line input of a given channel can be connected at one time. Do not connect both simultaneously to the same channel. ) (6) MASTER -- VOLUME CONTROL This controls the final level of the signal output. (7) MASTER -- REVERB CONTROL This controls the level of the reverb effects sound. (8) MASTER -- HIGH CONTROL The control has a shelving response giving 15dB of boost or cut at 12KHz. (9) MASTER -- MID CONTROL The control has a shelving response giving 15dB of boost or cut at 1. 5KHz. (10) MASTER -- LOW CONTROL The control has a shelving response giving 15dB of boost or cut at 100Hz. (11) MASTER -- DEPTH CONTROL This controls the amount of feedback of the reverb reflection, i. e. [. . . ] (18) VOLTAGE SELECTOR SWITCH For selecting the proper voltage (115/230VAC) to match the power supply in your area. Note: To avoid damage to your unit, always make sure this switch is set to the correct supply voltage. Damage caused by improper use is not covered by the warranty. 6 SPECIFICATIONS AMPLIFIER AND SPEAKER Power . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . 65W RMS @ 4 S/N Ratio . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
