• Plug the female end of the power cable into the GigaMix’s power socket. • Plug the male ( plug) end into a properly grounded power outlet. Making Audio Connections Start by making sure the GigaMix’s power switch is turned off. Then use either 1/ 4” or XLR cables to connect your instruments and microphones to the GigaMix. After this, you may connect speakers to the GigaMix. There are several ways to do this: • Main ( house) speakers. Connect two cables from the GigaMix’s two rear outputs to a matched set of speakers. For optimal power output, the total rated load of the speakers attached to these outputs should be 4 ohms. Note: the front panel Main Output jack(s) are not powered, and may be used to run the Main mix into another mixer for recording purposes. • Powered monitors (GigaMix 6FX and -8FX only). If you want to use the GigaMix to send a separate amplified signal to your monitors, first you must make sure that the front- panel Power Amp Mode switch is set to MAIN-MON. Then connect a cable from the GigaMix’s rear-panel Speaker Output 2 directly to the monitor speaker. It will carry the Monitor mix level. Note: You may daisy-chain several speakers, if necessary, as long as the total rated load of the speakers attached to this output is no lower than 4 ohms. • Unpowered monitors ( all models). If you want to use an external amplifier to power your monitors, connect a cable from the GigaMix’s front-panel Monitor Output jack to a high-quality amplifier. Then connect the output of that amplifier to one or more monitor speakers according to the instructions in the amplifier’s manual. Connecting a CD or Tape Player To run pre-recorded music through the GigaMix to the main outputs, plug the left and rightaudio outputs of your source device into the 2-Track Return jacks. Control the level of the music with the 2-TRACK RETURN LEVEL knob in the Main section. To capture the performance on a recording device, connect two cables from the 2- Track Send jacks to the audio inputs of the destination device. Adjust the recording level using the destination device’s input controls. Connecting External Effects To use an external effects device such as a reverb or chorus, connect an audio cable from the Effects Send jack of the GigaMix to the input of the external effects device. Then run anaudio cable from the output of the effects device to one of the Effect Return input jacks on the GigaMix. If your external effects device has stereo outputs, use two cables to connect the left and right outputs of that device to the Effect Return jacks on the GigaMix. The level sent to the external device is controlled by each channel’s EFFECT knob. The amount of external effect coming back to the GigaMix is controlled by a combination of the controls on the external effects device and the EFFECT RETURN controls for the Main and Monitor sections of the GigaMix. Note: Plugging a cable into the Effect Send jack will disable the built- in digital effects of the GigaMix. Channel Operation Setting levels (mic/line channels). Plug the cable into the appropriate input jack. Ifyou are using a microphone or an instrument with a low output level (such as an acoustic guitar) , pressing the +30dB switch will give you an extra measure of pre-amplification. Afterthis is set properly, control the volume of the input with the LEVEL knob. Setting levels (dual- line channels). Plug the cable(s) into the appropriate input jack(s). After this is done, control the volume of the input with the LEVEL knob. Pan position (GigaMix 8FX only) . Set the stereo placement of the input device using the PAN knob. Effect level. Dial in the desired amount of effects ( reverb, chorus, etc. ) using the EFFECT knob. The effects are post-fader, which means that as the input level is increased, the amountof signal being sent to the effects will also increase. If you want to increase the level of the instrument, you may need to turn down the EFFECT knob. If you want to use an external effect device, plug a cable into the Effect Send jack. (Thiswill disable the built-in digital effects of the GigaMix. ) Then connect the outputs of theexternal device to the Effect Return jacks on the GigaMix. Monitor level. To control the amount of a given channel being sent to the Monitor Output jack, use the MON knob. If the Power Amp Mode button is set to MAIN- MON ( up) , this signal will be sent to the Speaker Output 2 jack on the rear panel as well. Equalizer controls. There are three knobs in the EQ section for each channel: HI, MID, and LO. These give you the ability to shape the sound of each channel individually before itis sent to the outputs. Operating the Effects Section Selecting the effects program. The GigaMix has 100 different effect programs from which to choose. They are arranged into categories for ease of location. To select a new program, turn the knob next to the PROGRAM display. When you reach the desired number, push the knob to call up the new program. Bypassing the ef...
