XENYX 1002FX/1202FX

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.

When recording to an analog device, the VU meters of the

recording machine should reach approx. +3 dB with low-

frequency signals (e.g. kick drum). Due to their inertia VU meters

tend to display too low a signal level at frequencies above 1 kHz.

This is why, for example, a Hi-Hat should only be driven as far

as -10 dB. Snare drums should be driven to approx. 0 dB.

The CLIP-LEDs of your XENYX display the level

virtually independent of frequency. A recording level

of 0 dB is recommended for all signal types.

MAIN MIX

Use the MAIN MIX fader to adjust the volume of the main out.

PHONES/CONTROL ROOM

Use the PHONES/CONTROL ROOM control to adjust the

signal level of the CONTROL ROOM and PHONES outputs.
CD/TAPE TO MIX

When the CD/TAPE TO MIX switch is pressed, the CD/tape

input is assigned to the main mix providing an additional input for

tape machines, MIDI instruments or other signal sources that do

not require any processing.
CD/TAPE TO CTRL

Press the CD/TAPE TO CTRL switch if you want to monitor

the CD/tape input via the CTRL ROOM and PHONES outputs.

A typical studio application of this function is recording music

into a digital audio workstation (DAW) with simultaneous

reproduction (see ch. 3.1).

If you are recording a signal via the TAPE OUTPUT

and wish to listen to this simultaneously via the

CD/TAPE INPUT, do not use the CD/TAPE TO MIX

switch. Doing this would create a feedback loop,

since the signal would be routed, via the main mix,

back to tape via the TAPE OUTPUT. To monitor the

CD/TAPE INPUT, use the CD/TAPE TO CTRL switch

to assign the tape signal to the monitor(s) or

headphones. This will avoid the tape signal being

routed to the TAPE OUTPUT.

FX TO CONTROL

If you want to monitor only the effects signal in your

headphones or monitor speaker(s), press the FX TO CTRL

switch. Now the signal of the effects processor can be monitored

alone, and the main mix and/or CD/tape signal is no longer present

on the phone and control room outputs.
