INSTALLATION AND CONNECTION 4. CONTROL ELEMENTS HT MIC 1 1 MONO MIC/LINE Channels Your LYNX-MIX164 EVO is equipped with 10 low-noise microphone preamplifier with optional phantom power, 50 dB of Gain and over 115 dB of S/N ratio. You can connect almost any type of microphone. Dynamic microphones do not need phantom power. Use phantom power only with condenser microphones but make sure that the phantom power button is disengaged before connecting the microphone. Phantom power will not damage your dynamic microphones, so make sure to read the MIC instructions manual before engaging phantom power. Use switch (48) to activate/deactivate phantom power. These channels are also equipped with 1/4" TRS balanced/unbala nced LINE-IN plugs to connect line-level instruments such as keyboards, drum 2 1 3 1 LINE IN Ok, you have got to this point and you are now in the position to successfully operate your LYNX-MIX164 EVO. However, we advise you to read the following section carefully to be the real master of your own mixer. Not paying enough attention to the input signal level, the routing of the signal and the assignment of the signal will result in unwanted distortion, a corrupted signal or no sound at all. So you should follow this procedure for every single channel: 1. Turn down all input and output gain controls. BAL/UNBAL INSERT 2 MIC5 2 1 3 3 LINE IN 5 LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL LINE IN 6 RIGHT 2 MONO Channel INSERT This is where you connect external sound processors such as compressorlimiter, equalizers, etc.. The insert point is available on the first 4 MIC channels only. 2. Connect phantom powered microphones before switching on the +48 Volt phantom power switch. 3. Set the output level of your LYNX-MIX164 EVO or the connected power amplifier at no more than 75%. 4. Now, set the CONTROL ROOM/PHONES level at no more than 50%. In this way, you will be able to hear later what you are doing connecting a pair of headphones or a pair of powered studio monitor speakers. 5. Position EQ controls on middle position. 6. Position panoramic (PAN/BAL) control on center position. 7. With a pair of headphone or studio monitor speakers are connected, apply a Line Level input signal so that the PEAK LED does not light up. 8. Increase the input gain properly for maintaining the good headroom and ideal dynamic range. 9. Depending on the actual application, turn slowly the input and output level controls for obtaining the maximum gain before distortion. 10. Now repeat the same sequence for all input channels. The main LED meter could move up into the red section. In this case you can adjust the overall output level through the main mix control. 3 STEREO INPUTS RACK mounting In one side of the package, you will find a pair of RACK-mount. If you want to assemble your LYNX-MIX164 EVO on a 19U RACK-box, remove the rubber handle, and fix the RACK-mount with the attached screws MIC1 2 MIC2 1 2 MIC3 1 3 2 MIC4 1 3 2 MIC5 1 3 2 MIC6 1 3 2 MIC7 1 3 2 MIC8 1 3 2 MIC9 1 3 2 MIC10 1 3 2 MAIN MIX OUTPUT L 1 3 LAMP 5V 0.5A 164 VO 3 16-CH COMPACT INTEGRATED LIVE SOUND MIXER 5 LINE IN 2 LINE IN 3 LINE IN 5 LINE IN 4 LINE IN 7 LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL INSERT BAL/UNBAL INSERT BAL/UNBAL INSERT LINE IN 9 LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL LINE IN 6 INSERT LINE IN 11 LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL LINE IN 8 LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL LINE IN 10 LINE IN 15 LINE IN 13 LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL LINE IN 12 2-TRACK IN/OUT LEFT (MONO) BAL/UNBAL 2 L 2 1 3 BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL INSERT INSERT A BAL/UNBAL LINE IN 16 LINE IN 14 MAIN MIX OUTPUT R 1 3 PHONES R RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT RIGHT B TAPE OUT TAPE IN MIC LINE MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM MIC LINE TRIM TRIM PROGRAM (PUSH) dB +15 -35 0 LEVEL SET 50 dB +15 -35 0 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct LEVEL SET 50 EQ -15 -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 LEVEL SET 40 EQ -15 +15 -15 -15 -15 -15 -15 -15 -15 EQ -15 -15 -15 DIGITAL STEREO EFFECTS PROCESSOR 50-59 Vocal 60-69 Rotary 70-79 Small Room 80-89 Flange+Verb 90-99 Large Hall Echo Echo+Verb Tremolo Plate Leslie 88 PEAK/MUTE DSP MUTE HI 12kHz +15 -15 +15 HI-MID 3kHz +15 00-09 10-19 20-29 30-39 40-49 EQ HI 12kHz +15 24BITs LEVEL SET 40 LINE USB HI-MID 3kHz +15 dB +20 -20 0 MP3 HI 12kHz +15 LEVEL SET 40 LINE MP3 HI-MID 3kHz +15 dB +20 -20 0 EQ HI 12kHz +15 LEVEL SET 40 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct HI-MID 3kHz +15 dB +20 -20 0 EQ HI 12kHz +15 LEVEL SET 40 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct HI-MID 3kHz +15 dB +20 -20 0 EQ HI 12kHz +15 LEVEL SET 40 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct MID 800 dB +20 -20 0 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct EQ -15 MID 800 dB +20 -20 0 HI 12kHz +15 MID 800 LEVEL SET 50 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct HI 12kHz +15 MID dB +15 -35 0 EQ HI 12kHz +15 -15 LEVEL SET 50 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct EQ HI 12kHz -15 dB +15 -35 0 LOW CUT 75Hz 18dB/Oct 63 HI-MID 3kHz +15 -15 125 250 1K 500 4K 2K 16K 8K +12 +12 +15 800 +8 +8 +4 +4 FREQ 100Hz 8KHz FREQ 100Hz 8KHz LOW -15 AUX 100Hz 8KHz 1 -15 AUX 100Hz 8KHz -15 AUX +15 -15 +15 AUX -15 +15 -15 +15 1 AUX MID-LOW 500Hz -15 +15 -15 +15 LOW 80Hz +15 1 MID-LOW 500Hz LOW 80Hz +15 1 -15 LOW 80Hz +15 MID-LOW 500Hz FREQ LOW 80Hz +15 1 FREQ LOW 80Hz -15 AUX -15 +15 -15 +15 LOW 80Hz 1 MID-LOW 500Hz AUX -15 +15 -15 +15 LOW 80Hz 1 MID-LOW 500Hz AUX -15 +15 -15 +15 LOW 80Hz 1 MID-LOW 500Hz 1 AUX 0 0 EQ OFF EQ ON -4 -4 -8 -8 -12 -12 LOW 80Hz STEREO GRAPHIC EQ 80Hz 1 STEREO AUX RETURNS AUX SENDS AUX 1 1 2TK IN 1 +15 - 2 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 SOLO 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 2 8 - +15 8 8 - 2 8 TO AUX SEND1 - +15 2 +15 TO MAIN MIX CTRL ROOM SOURCE PAN PAN PAN POST PRE - +15 - +15 - +15 POST PRE 3 - +15 - +15 - +15 POST PRE 3 DFX1 (EXT) - +15 - +15 - +15 POST PRE 3 DFX1 (EXT) 4 +15 - +15 - +15 SOLO SOLO 4 DFX2 (INT) BAL - +15 - +15 - +15 - 3 MAIN MIX +15 AUX RETURNS SOLO SUB 1-2 2TK IN SUB 3-4 DFX1 (EXT) 4 DFX2 (INT) - 3 DFX1 (EXT) 4 DFX2 (INT) BAL MAIN MIX CTRL/R 4 DFX2 (INT) BAL MAX PHONES/ CTRL ROOM 8 +15 8 +15 BAL 8 +15 - 4 8 - - 3 DFX2 (INT) BAL 8 POST PRE DFX1 (EXT) 8 +15 SUB 1/2 PWR +48 CLIP 10 SOLO 4-DFX2 SEND PAN 8 +15 8 +15 - 4 8 - - 3 DFX2 (INT) 8 POST PRE DFX1 (EXT) 8 +15 8 +15 8 +15 - 4 8 - - 3 DFX2 (INT) 8 POST PRE DFX1 (EXT) 8 +15 8 +15 8 +15 - 4 DFX2 (INT) 8 - - 3 DFX1 (EXT) 8 POST PRE 8 +15 8 +15 8 +15 - 4 8 - - 3 DFX2 (INT) 8 POST PRE DFX1 (EXT) 8 +15 8 +15 4 DFX2 (INT) 8 +15 - 8 - - 3 DFX1 (EXT) 8 POST PRE 8 +15 4 8 8 8 +15 8 +15 - 3 8 - - 8 TO AUX SEND2 8 4 TRIM The TRIM control is applied in the mono MIC and stereo input channels. It provides with 2 different indications: One is for the MIC and the other for LINE levels. When you use a microphone, you shall read the MIC ring (0~50 for mono MIC input, 0~40 for stereo channels); when you use a line level instrument, you shall read the LINE ring (+15~-35 dB for mono MIC input, +20~-20 dB for stereo channels). For optimum operation, you shall set this control in a way that the PEAK LED(16) blinks only occasionally in order to avoid distortion on the input channel. LINE IN 1 8 These are channels 5 through 16. They are organised in stereo pair and provided with XLR sockets and 1/4" TRS phone jacks.If you connect only the left jack, the input will operate in mono mode, that is the mono signal will appear on both input channels. You can use these inputs with a stereo keyboard, drum machine, etc. SUB 3/4 4-DFX2 RETURN MAIN MIX BAL 7 LEVEL SET 0 -7 TO L/R LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT TO L/R PAN TO L/R PAN TO L/R PAN PAN SOLO ACTIVE -10 SOLO MODE PFL AFL OUTPUT LEVEL -20 -30 PEAK PEAK MUTE 10 PEAK MUTE 10 dB 10 dB 5 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 10 dB dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 LEFT 5 SUB 1-2 0 RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT LEFT RIGHT L R MUTE 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 PEAK MUTE 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 PEAK MUTE 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 PEAK MUTE 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 PEAK MUTE 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 PEAK MUTE MUTE 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 PEAK PEAK MUTE 5 10 dB 5 10 dB 5 10 10 dB dB 5 5 10 dB 5 SUB 1-2 0 0 0 0 0 0 -5 -5 -5 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -10 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -20 -5 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 11/12 -60 SOLO 13/14 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 9/10 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 7/8 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 5/6 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 4 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 3 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -30 -40 -60 SOLO 2 -25 -30 -40 -60 SOLO -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 -60 -5 SUB 3-4 MAIN L-R -25 -30 -40 1 -5 SUB 3-4 -5 0 -5 -10 -20 -25 -25 -25 -25 -30 -40 -60 -30 -40 -60 -30 -40 -60 -30 -40 -60 -25 -25 -30 -40 -60 -30 -40 -60 SOLO 15/16 SUB1 SUB2 SUB3 SUB4 MAIN L MAIN R 18 1 SP OT LI GH T 5.
