Front Panel

MONO INPUT CHANNELS

1Gain

This control establishes the nominal operating level for the channel. The input gain can be adjusted over a wide range (0 dB ??? 60 dB) to compensate for soft voices or very loud drums. To maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, the gain should be set to the proper level, with the Channel Fader (13) set to 0. It can be set by pressing the PFL Switch (12) and adjusting for 0 dB on the output meter. If the clip LED comes on and remains lit, reduce the gain.

2Lo Cut

The low-cut filter has a corner frequency of 75 Hz. When engaged??? it can improve clarity by removing low frequencies that make a mix sound muddy. This filter reduces handling and stage noise, breathing noise, and unwanted low frequency energy that can rob your sound system of power. Engaging this switch will remove those frequencies from the system and restore power where needed. We recommend engaging it for all channels except those with the lowest bass tones such as Bass guitar and Kick drum.

3Hi EQ

This shelving type tone control adjusts treble frequency levels (??15 dB at 10 KHz), resulting in less noise or more brilliance.

4Mid EQ

This active tone control is a bandpass (peak/notch) type that varies mid-fre- quency response by ??15 dB in a range from 100 Hz to 5 kHz. The center frequency is controlled by the Mid Freq (5) control.

5Mid Freq

This control determines the center frequency of the Mid EQ (4) control. Center frequency for the bandpass filter can be set from 100 Hz to 5 kHz.

6Low EQ

This shelving-type tone control adjusts bass frequency levels (??15 dB at 70 Hz), adding depth to thin signals or clarity to overly thick signals.

Caution: Excessive low frequency boost causes increased power consumption and increases the possibility of speaker damage.

7AUX 1-4 Sends

These controls send the channel???s pre-fader, post-EQ signal to each of four aux buses. These buses are normally used for monitor sends or for feeding a sepa- rate mix to external equipment. There are internal jumpers that can be switched to change the send point to pre-EQ. Unity gain is at the center detent position with up to 10 dB of gain in the fully clockwise position.

8AUX 5-6/EFX 1-2 Sends

These controls send the channel???s post-fader signal to each of two aux (effects) buses. These buses are normally used for effects sends or for feeding the inter- nal effects processors. Unity gain is at the center detent position with up to 10 dB of gain in the fully clockwise position.

Front Panel

9Pan

This control determines the signal???s position with respect to the assigned L/R and Group 1???4 buses. Rotating the control counterclockwise increases the amount of signal sent to L and odd-numbered groups; rotating clockwise increases the amount sent to R and even-numbered groups. For example, with the channel Bus Assign switch (10) in the 1/2 position, rotating the control counterclockwise increases the amount of signal sent to Group 1, while rotating clockwise increases the amount sent to Group 2. The C position sends equal amounts to each.

101/2, 3/4, L/R Bus Assign Switches

These post-fader switches determine where the channel signal is being sent. For example, to send a signal to Groups 1 & 2, depress the 1/2 button. The PAN control (9) determines the signal level that is sent to each signal bus.

11Mute Switch/Mute-Clip LED

This switch mutes all Aux, Group and L/R sends from the corresponding channel. This switch is equipped with a red LED that will illuminate when the channel is muted. When the MUTE button is out, the LED functions as a Clip indicator that will illuminate at 2 dB below clipping. Muting the channel does not prevent the PFL signal from being sent to the PFL/AFL mix when the PFL Switch (12) is in.

12PFL Switch/Signal-PFL LED

This switch connects the channel???s pre-fader signal to the PFL/AFL mix. When the PFL button is in, the channel???s signal can be monitored through the headphones and/or on the PFL/AFL display. A yellow LED in the Master section will blink to indicate that the signal on the Master LED display and at the headphone output is PFL. Selecting PFL allows the operator to monitor a channel even with the channel muted, and is especially useful for cuing CDs/tapes. When the PFL button is out, the yellow channel LED will function as a signal presence indicator (-30 dBu).

13Channel Fader

This control varies the signal level from -??? to +10 dB and sends the signal from the channel to the L/R and Group buses and to the Effects Sends. The optimum setting is the ?? (unity gain) position.

Front Panel

STEREO INPUT CHANNELS

14Mic Gain

This control establishes the nominal operating level for the mic input (XLR) of the channel. The mic gain can be adjusted over a wide range (0 dB ??? 60 dB) to compensate for soft voices or very loud drums. To maximize the signal-to-noise ratio, the gain should be set to the proper level, with the Channel Fader (13) set to ??. The mic gain can be set by pressing the PFL button (12) and adjusting for ?? dB on the output meter. If the clip LED comes on and remains lit, reduce the gain.

15Stereo Gain

This control establishes the nominal operating level for the stereo line inputs (1/4" jacks) of the channel. The Stereo Gain can be adjusted over a sufficient range (-??? to +20 dB) to accommodate almost any input level. It operates in conjunction with the L/R???CH Switch (16) to route the stereo signal directly to the L/R buses or through the channel strip.

Stereo Input Channels

ONLY

16 L/R???CH Switch

This switch establishes the routing of the stereo line input (1/4" jacks) signal. 6 When the switch is out, the stereo line input signal is routed directly to the L/R

buses, bypassing the channel strip. In this mode, the mic input (XLR) signal is routed through the channel. When the switch is in, the stereo line input signal is routed through the channel and the mic input signal is disconnected. The signal level is controlled via the Stereo Gain control (15).

17Input Select Stereo-USB Switch

This switch selects the input signal that will feed the stereo line input of the second stereo channel. When the switch is out, the signal from the stereo line inputs is routed to the Stereo Gain control (15). When the switch is in, the signal from the device connected to either USB port (60-61) is routed to the Stereo Gain control (15).

18Mid EQ

In the Stereo Input channels, this active tone control is a bandpass (peak/notch) type that varies mid-frequency response by ??15 dB at a center frequency of 850 Hz.

MASTER SECTION

19Auxiliary Masters 1-4

This control sets the output level of the AUX 1-4 mixes and is adjustable from -??? to +10 dB.

20Auxiliary Masters 5-6

This control sets the output level of the various AUX 5-6 mixes and is adjustable from -??? to +10 dB. These signals are also sent to the EFX1 and EFX2 internal effects processors, respectively.

21AFL Switch/AFL-Clip LED

This switch directs the post-fader (AFL) signal to the Headphone output (37) and activates the PFL/AFL LED display. An adjacent red LED illuminates to signify this selection. If AFL is not selected, the LED functions as a Clip indicator. Selecting AFL allows monitoring of AUX Masters with the full PFL/AFL Level Display as well as allowing the operator to hear the output.

Front Panel

22Phantom Power Switch

This switch applies +48 VDC voltage to the input XLR connectors to power condenser microphones requiring phan- tom power. This switch is recessed into the console and requires a small ???tool??? such as a pencil or pen tip to activate. A regular low impedance dynamic mic such as the PVM??? 22 will not be harmed. The Line inputs (49&50) are not connected to the +48 V supply and are safe for bal- anced or unbalanced inputs. An adjacent LED illuminates when Phantom Power is activated.

Caution:

If phantom power is used, do not connect unbalanced dynamic micro- phones or other devices to the XLR inputs. (Some wireless receivers may be damaged. Consult their manuals.)

Note:

Make sure the Master Level Faders (40) are completely down when switching on the phantom power and when connect- ing microphones to the Mic inputs to prevent pops from affecting the loud- speakers.

23Left, Right, Bus Assign Switches

These post-fader switches determine where the Group mix signal is being sent. For example, if each individual drum mic is assigned to Group 1, depressing the Left button will send the drum mix to the Left bus and to the Left Out (54) on the rear panel.

24Mute Switch/Mute-Clip LED

This switch mutes its respective Group send from the Group channel. This switch is equipped with a red LED that will il- luminate when the Group is muted. When the Mute button is out, the LED functions as a Clip indicator that will illuminate at 2 dB below clipping.

Front Panel

25AFL Switch/Signal-AFL LED

This switch connects the Group???s post-fader signal to the PFL/AFL mix. When the AFL button is in, the Group???s signal can be monitored through the headphones and/or on the PFL/AFL display. A yellow LED in the Master section will blink to indicate that the signal on the Master LED display and the Headphone Output is the PFL/AFL mix. When the AFL button is out, the yellow group LED will blink as an indication of signal presence (-30 dBu).

26Group Fader

This control varies the signal level from -??? to +10 dB and sends the signal from the Group to the Left and/or Right buses and to the Group Output jacks (53). The optimum setting is the ?? (unity gain) position.

27TO AUX 1 & TO AUX 2 Controls

These controls determine the level of the respective Effects Return signal that is sent to the respective AUX bus, allowing musicians/singers to hear internal and/or external effects in their monitors.

NOTE: Due to the creation of an electronic feedback loop, do not use AUX Sends 1 or 2 as the path to external equipment that is to be sent back to the corresponding AUX mix (1 or 2).

28BAL

This control determines the placement of the Effects Return signal's position with respect to the as- signed L/R and Group 1-4 buses. Rotating the control counterclockwise (L) sends more signal to the LEFT output and odd-numbered GROUPS; rotating clockwise (R) sends more signal to the RIGHT output and even-numbered GROUPS. The C position sends equal amounts to each.

29EFX LEVEL Control

This control determines the level of the Effects Return signal being sent to its assigned buses. It func- tions similarly to the Channel Faders (13).

301/2, 3/4, L/R Bus Assign Switches

Like the channel assign switches, these buttons determine the bus assignment of the Effects Return signal. They determine where the signal is being sent.

31Mute Switch/Mute-Clip LED

This switch mutes its respective Effects Return from being sent to the buses. This switch is equipped with a red LED that will illuminate when the Effects is muted. When the Mute button is out, the LED func- tions as a Clip indicator that will illuminate at 2 dB below clipping.

32AFL Switch/Signal-AFL LED

This switch connects the Effects Return post-fader signal to the PFL/AFL mix. When the AFL button is in, the Effects Return signal can be monitored through the headphones and/or on the PFL/AFL display. A yellow LED in the Master section will blink to indicate that the signal on the Master LED display and the Headphone Output is the PFL/AFL mix. When the AFL button is out, the yellow Effects Return LED will blink as an indication of signal presence (-30 dBu).

33Effects 2 Patch Switch

This switch determines whether the Effects 2 processor will be used in the Return 2 or will be patched to an Input Channel or Group insert point. This switch can also be used to perform the bypass function. When the effects processor is assigned to the EFX 2 Return, the I/O jack (56) is bypassed. Similarly, when the effects processor is being patched externally, only the external Stereo Return jacks (57) are used to return a signal.

34Media In Level Control

Controls the level of the Media Input signal from the RCA jacks (58) to the Left and Right buses when the L/R switch (35) is in.

37Headphone Output Jack

The Headphone Output is a 1???4??? TRS (Tip= Left; Ring = Right; Sleeve = Ground) jack. The signal sent to this output is normally the Left/Right mix. When the L/R???Media Switch (39) is engaged, the Media Input signal is selected and is monitored through headphones. An activated PFL or AFL button (indicated by a yellow flashing LED) switches the headphone output jack monitor to the selcted signal.

38Headphone Level

This control sets the Headphone Output level. To avoid damage to your hearing??? make sure to turn the control fully counterclockwise before using headphones. Slowly turn the knob clockwise until you reach a comfortable listening level. Normally, the signal in the headphones is the Left/Right signal. If the L/R???Media Switch (39) is engaged??? the Media Input signal is selected and monitored through headphones. An activated PFL or AFL button (indicated by a yellow flashing LED) switches the head- phone level monitoring to the selcted signal.

39L/R???Media Switch

This switch selects the signal that is monitored by the headphones. When out, the Main Left/Right post- fader signal is monitored. When in, the Media Input post-fader signal is monitored.

40Master Level Faders

The Master Faders control the levels sent to the Main Left/Right outputs (54). Best results are obtained when these controls are set near the 0 point.

41Left/Right ??? PFL/AFL Level Displays

These indicators graphically display the level of the signal selected by the L/R???Media Switch (38). When the switch is in, these indicators show the level of the post-fader level of the Media Input. When the switch is out, these indicators show the level of the Main Left and Right outputs. Signal is sampled at the summing amp and post-master faders to monitor clipping throughout the Left/Right section. The Clip LED indicator will illuminate when any level in the signal chain approaches (-2 dB) clipping.

NOTE: Clip LED can illuminate before the rest of the array indicating the summing amp reaches clipping.

42Power LED

This LED indicates that AC power is supplied to the unit??? the power switch is on, and the unit is function- ing properly.

43Lamp 12Vdc (24FX??? and 32FX??? mixers only)

These outputs are designed to power gooseneck lamps such as the Peavey ML-1.

DIGITAL PROCESSING ARENA

This is a brief overview of the digital processing capabilities of your new FX??? mixer. While you can expect incredible results following this guide, mastering the art of digital processing will be achieved through experimentation. Keep in mind that until you confirm your changes by pressing "save", no alterations have been made to the presets. Peavey engineers programmed your mixer with a variety of the most commonly used presets, which are ready to use right out of the box. However, your FX mixer will only reach its full digital processing potential through your acquired expertise. Review the process below and begin exploring the digital mixing world beyond factory presets.

44A Effects Screen

When you power up your FX Mixer, the Peavey logo will briefly appear on the LCD (47). In a few seconds, once the mixer software is fully loaded, the effects screen will appear on the LCD (47). Your FX Mixer fea- tures a variety of commonly used factory presets and plenty of user-defined, customizable presets. Each preset effect may contain 1-3 effects. The split screen display (EFX 1 and EFX 2) contains information for the current, active presets. The two active presets shown on the LCD (47) are independent and can be assigned to any channel(s) using EFX 1-2 Sends (8) . The screen displays the preset number (effects 1- 99), the title for that individual effect (Church Choir, for example), and which effects are included in that preset (compressor, reverb, delay, etc.). To change the preset for EFX 1 or EFX 2, use the corresponding Software Encoder knob (45) . When you reach the

of reverb on the "Joe's Bar" preset(preset 37). The

???lib??? (library) is a helpful place to start. Peavey has pre-programmed your FX mixer with a library of com- monly used effects settings (Delay, Reverb, Deesser, etc.). You may choose to use the library effect as programmed or tweak the parameters to your own personal preference.

DIGITAL PROCESSING ARENA

(56) can be patched directly into an Insert (48) on any channel or subgroup (Group Inserts (54)). Press the EFX 2 Patch Switch (33) to activate the patch. In this configuration, comb filtering is eliminated be- cause the only signal path is through the processor.

If you make a mistake, you do not have to start over. The ???undo??? button will revert the last change to its original setting, much like the undo command in a word processor. To make further refinements to any user-defined preset, you have two choices: press the "back" button and start completely over, or simply use the soft knobs (45-46) to return to the individual effect within a preset. Remember, factory presets cannot be altered by the user. If you choose to adjust or build on a factory preset (which we encourage you to do), your saved settings will be automatically directed to the next, unused, customized preset.

WARNING: When user-defined, customizable presets are saved, they will automatically replace the current settings for that preset UNLESS you assign a new preset number. If you overwrite the originally saved preset settings, the old settings are no longer retrievable.

QUICK TIP: From anywhere within the digital arena, you can return to the main effects screen simply by pressing the Effects Button (44A).

By default, the stereo output menu appears when the Output Processing button (44B) is pressed. If you prefer to work in dual-mono-output or

subwoofer mode, return to the main output processing screen by pressing the ???mode??? soft knob choice.

Stereo Output Mode

The stereo output option features four customizable output effects: Feedback Ferret??, EQ, Delay, and Limiter. To edit an effect, press the Soft Encoder button (45) and then enter the edit mode using Soft Switches (46). To save a new preset (save current) or to use a previously saved setting (load saved), enter the ???lib??? (library) mode using the soft knobs (45-46).

Remember, in stereo mode these parameter adjustments are made to both the left and right channels equally.

DIGITAL PROCESSING ARENA

Dual Mono Output Mode

The dual mono output mode functions exactly like the stereo mode except that parameters may be adjusted independently for left and right channels. To save a new preset (save current) or to use a previ- ously saved setting (load saved), enter the ???lib??? (library) mode using the soft knobs (45-46).

Subwoofer Output Mode

This mode features an internal crossover filter that allows you to adjust parameters of frequency levels (high frequencies feed to the left channel and low frequencies feed to the right). To save a new preset (save current) or to use a previously saved setting (load saved), enter the ???lib??? (library) mode using the soft knobs (45-46).

44C Digital I/O

Pressing the Digital I/O (44C) allows user access to the utility or USB menu options.

Utility Menu Options

Entering the utility function allows users to adjust screen contrast, assign two levels of user acces- sibility (security), change or access password, or restore the unit to the original factory presets.

To accommodate lighting, LCD (47) viewing may be adjusted simply by entering the "view angle" option from the main utility screen using soft knobs (45-46) to make all adjustments.

To accommodate varying users, your FX??? mixer is equipped with a two-level security system. The main mixer operator user controls who can do what with the digital effects board, granting passwords to people for specific processing rights such as disabling effects edit, disabling output edit, etc. Security settings can be adjusted simply by entering the security choice option from the main utility screen using the soft knobs (45-46) to make all adjustments.

MASTER USER TIP: Peavey highly recommends that you set a security password. Allowing someone else to operate your unsecured FX mixer grants that user complete access to change all of your settings. Security passwords protect the time you spent to get your presets just right while allowing you to safely provide digital processing access for even the most inexperienced users.

In the event you wish to change your password, press the "change password" button from the main Digital I/O menu (44C), and follow on-screen directions.

IMPORTANT: Write and store your password in a safe place. No one other than you should have access to this password; loss of your password could result in your inability to change settings.

CAUTION: Restoring the factory settings option resets your mixer???s presets, reformatting factory presets and erasing all other user presets. (This option is handy when your venue has permanently changed and all-new presets are required.) Once confirmed, the presets are not retrievable and will be permanently lost. Should you select this option in error, a warning screen allows you to cancel the procedure.

USB Menu Options

Entering the USB function allows users to play or record .mp3, .aiff and .wav files using a USB drive (pur- chased separately).

DIGITAL PROCESSING ARENA

This feature is perfect for playing a pre-recorded musical piece through assigned channels of your mixer. USB drives also allow you to record specific segments of your work or an entire gig up to the amount of free memory available on your USB drive. After connecting a USB drive to the USB port (60), enter the USB menu. Follow on-screen instructions to select files available for playback or to name files for recording, again using soft knobs (45-46) to make all selections.

Firmware Updates

To install a firmware update, hold down the left Software Encoder (45) while powering up your mixer. Follow on-screen prompts to complete your process. Necessary files can be downloaded from the In- ternet and installed using your computer or an optional USB drive. If the installation is successful, your mixer will automatically restart. If unsuccessful, or to exit the update mode, press the power button to restart.
