[. . . ] 1 IMPORTANT Please read this manual carefully before using your mixer for the first time. © Harman International Industries Ltd. 2005 All rights reserved Parts of the design of this product may be protected by worldwide patents.

[. . . ] Note: when this switch is set to [MASTER], the headphones will be post-eq; when it is set to [CUE], the headphones will be post-eq. EQ This control adjusts the tone of the monitored sound, cutting the highs or lows about the centre off position. At the 12 o'clock centre position the EQ will be flat (no cut). As the control is moved clockwise the HIGHER frequencies will be progressively cut until, at the fully clockwise position the maximum high frequency cut will be applied (-85dB). As the control is moved anti-clockwise from the centre position the LOWER frequencies will be progressively cut until, at the fully anti-clockwise position the maximum low frequency cut will be applied (-85dB). NOTE: fully clockwise=dark, fully anti-clockwise=bright. HEADPHONE SOCKETS Outputs are provided on 1/4" and 3. 5mm jacks. This is to maximise compatibility with headphones, not to allow two sets of headphones to be used. If two sets of headphones are used the volume of signal in the headphones will be reduced. 28 X-F MONITOR 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 be gradually introduced until, at half-way, CH1 and CH2 sound will be equal. As the control is moved to the RIGHT from the centre position the CH1 sound will gradually reduce until at full RIGHT only CH2 sound will be audible. When the [MASTER/CUE SELECT] is set to MASTER the [X-F MONITOR] control has no function. The signal from main mix will be routed to the headphones. 29 THE BPM FX MODULE OPERATING CRITERIA This product has been designed to operate most effectively with dance music , i. e. music based on strong regular beats and patterns. However, as the range of pre-recorded dance material is virtually limitless (and the audio mix of individual tracks unknown) we cannot guarantee the performance of 1601E with every style of dance music. 1601E's synchronisation performance may be affected if the beat information is either unavailable or indefinable within the audio track. Please consider this when selecting your audio material. TOP PANEL CONTROLS 1) BANK: (MODE) This rotary switch selects the operating modes. In [A] mode only one effect at a time can be activated. In [B]~[F] modes the factory presets, which feature a wide spectrum of multiple effect combinations, can be accessed. 2) BEATS: (FX SPEED) 1/4 1/2 3/4 1/1 2/1 This rotary switch sets the effect speed. There are additional speed settings for FILTER/FLANGER/PANNER: 1 bar, 2 bar, 4 bar, 8 bar & 16 bar. 3) BEATS INDICATOR The [BEATS] indicator lights when the BPM engine is locked on to the beat. 30 4) TAP/CLEAR [TAP/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 GATE effect. The [X] encoder controls the [DEPTH](MARK:SPACE RATIO) of the waveform. The [Y] encoder controls the cutter [SLOPE] parameters. 6) PAN (2) This button selects the PANNING effect. [. . . ] The processed (wet) signal is returned to the mix through a channel where it adds to the direct (dry) signal routed from the channel fader. The measurement of turntable speed, 33, 45 and 78 RPM. Another performance effect popular with DJs. The channel signal is sent to a digital processor that samples (stores) a short duration of sound.
