[. . . ] UB1002FX/UB1202FX Users Manual Version 1. 0 February 2005 EURORACK ENGLISH EURORACK UB1002FX/UB1202FX IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS DETAILED SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: 1) Read these instructions. CAUTION: To reduce the risk of electric shock, do not remove the top cover (or the rear section). No user serviceable parts inside; refer servicing to qualified personnel. 5) Do not use this apparatus near water. [. . . ] Often, limiters are already built into active crossovers (e. g. BEHRINGER SUPER-X PRO CX2310 and ULTRADRIVE PRO DCX2496). Active crossovers are implemented directly before the power amplifier, and they divide the frequency range into several segments that are first amplified in the amplifiers and then passed on to the corresponding loudspeakers. Recording: For mastering, using a stereo compressor such as the COMPOSER PRO-XL MDX2600 can be recommended. Use it to custom-tailor the dynamic characteristics of your signal to the dynamic range of the recording equipment you are using. The signal is in this case passed on from the compressor into the recorder. CD/TAPE INPUT The CD/TAPE INPUTs are used to bring an external signal source (e. g. CD player, tape deck, etc. ) into the console. They can also be used as a standard stereo line input, so the output of a second EURORACK or BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882 can be connected. Alternatively the line or tape output of a hi-fi amplifier with source selection switch could also be hooked up here, allowing you to easily listen to additional sources (e. g. cassette recorder, minidisk player, sound card etc. ). TAPE OUTPUT These connections are laid out as RCA connectors and are wired parallel to MAIN OUT. Connect the inputs of a computer sound card or a recorder here. The output signal level is set up using the highly accurate MAIN MIX fader. one minute to allow for system stabilization. + Caution!You must never use unbalanced XLR connectors (PIN 1 and 3 connected) on the MIC input connectors if you want to use the phantom power supply. POWER The blue POWER LED indicates that the console is powered on. LEVEL INDICATOR The 4-segment display accurately displays the relevant signal level. LEVEL SETTING: To correctly set the gains of the channels, first set the LEVEL controls of the input channels to their center positions. Then use the TRIM controls to increase the input amplification until signal peaks show 0 dB on the level meter. When recording to digital recorders, the recorders peak meter should not go into overload. While analog recorders can be overloaded to some extent, creating only a certain amount of distortion, digital recorders distort quickly when overloaded. In addition, digital distortion is not only undesirable, but also renders your recording completely useless.
