Mackie 1202-VLZ4 オーナーマニュアル

Owner’

s Manual

We realize that you must be really keen to try out

the mixer. Please read the safety instructions on page
2, then have a look through some of the features and
details in this manual.

Use the mixer in a nice clean and dry environment,

free from dryer lint and dust bunnies.

1.  Fully turn down all the knobs to minimum,  

except for the channel EQ and pan controls,
which should be centered.

2.  Make sure all buttons are in the out position.

1.  Make sure the AC power switch is off before

making any connections.

WARNING: Before plugging the AC power
cord into the mixer, make sure the VOLTAGE
SELECTOR switch is set to the same voltage
as the local AC mains supply (see page 12).

2.  Push the linecord securely into the IEC

connector on the rear panel, and plug it into a
3-prong AC outlet. The mixer may accept any
AC voltage ranging from 100 VAC to 240 VAC.

3.  Plug a balanced microphone into one of the mic

XLR (3-pin) connectors. Or connect any  
line-level signal (keyboard, or guitar preamp)
to a line input jack using a TS or a TRS  
1/4" plug.

4.  If your microphone requires phantom power,

turn on the 48V phantom power button.

5.  All mono channels have insert jacks that can be

used to connect an external effects or dynamics
processor into the signal chain.

6.  Connect the main outputs of the mixer (either

XLR or TRS 1/4") to the line level inputs of your
amplifier (with speakers already attached) or
to the line level inputs of powered speakers.

It’s not even necessary to hear what you’re doing to

set optimal levels. But if you’d like to: Plug headphones
into the phones output jack, then turn up the phones
knob just a little.

1.  Turn on the mixer by pressing the top edge of

the power switch.

2.  For one channel, press the solo switch in, and

the rude solo light will turn on.

3.  Play something into that input at real-world

levels.

4.  Adjust that channel's gain control until the

right main meter stays around the 0 dB LED
(marked “level set”) and never goes higher
than “+7.”

5.  Disengage the channel's solo switch.
6.  Repeat steps 2 to 5 for the remaining channels.
7.  Turn up the channel level knob to the “U” mark.
8.  Slowly turn up the main mix knob until you

hear the signals in the headphones.

9.  If needed, apply some channel EQ wisely.
10. Adjust the channel levels to get the best mix.

Keep the gain controls and levels fully down on
unused channels.

11. During the performance, if you notice a channel

OL LED turning on during peaks, carefully turn
down that channel's gain control until OL does
not turn on.

•  Never listen to loud music for prolonged  

periods. Please see the Safety Instructions on
page 2 for information on hearing protection.

•  Always turn down the phones level when

making connections, pressing solo, or doing
anything that may cause loudness in the  
headphones. This will help protect your
hearing.

•  Always turn down the main mix level and  

control room/submix levels when making  
connections  
to the mixer. Better yet, turn off the power.

•  When shutting down, turn off any power

amplifiers or powered speakers first. When
powering up, turn them on last. This will  
reduce the chance of turn-on or turn-off
thumps.

•  Save the shipping box!
