"MONITOR OUTPUT VOLUME" This controls the overall volume of the MONITOR OUTPUT. 3. HEADPHONE OUTPUT This output allows the user to listen to the main output the EON 210P mixer. Headphones used will require a 3. 5 mm stereo plug. MASTER VOLUME and "PEAK LED LADDER" Your EON 210P is equipped with a "Master Volume" that controls the overall output volume of the system and a 5 light "Peak LED Ladder" that gives you a visual display of how much power you are using (think of the speedometer on your car). The red or top LED on the ladder indicates that you are approaching the maximum output by blinking or, when it stays on constantly, indicates you have reached the maximum output. As a frame of reference if a channel volume is on "7" and the "MASTER VOLUME" is on "7" you will have reached the maximum output before distortion is audible. 13 DIGITAL EFFECTS Your EON 210P is equipped with digital multi-effects designed to enhance instruments or vocals. An effect on a vocal or instrument can create a very natural sense of space for the listener and is great fun for the performer. Used correctly, effects enhance a voice or instrument in a very musical way but, when used to excess, they can make the music or voice less intelligible and unnatural. As a basic place to start turn the EFFECT control to "5" on the appropriate channel. Start with the EFX RETURN on "5" and then select an effect that is suitable for your application. If there is too much effect then turn down the EFX RETURN to suit your taste. Located on each mono input strip is a control labeled "EFFECT". This control determines the amount of effect for that specific channel. "EFX SELECT" determines what type of effect is selected. The "EFX RETURN" controls the amount of effect on a global basis. All channels that have the "EFFECT" control activated will be affected by turning this control up or down. 1. ROOM REVERB Use with Vocals, Acoustic and Electric Instruments, Percussion, Piano 4. SLAPBACK Short Echo with repeats for Lead Vocal, Karaoke, Rockabilly 5. HALL REVERB Use with Lead Vocal, Sustained Guitar 14 effe 2 Plate and 6. Connect the microphone to the microphone cable and insert the male end into channel 1 of the EON 210P mixer. Depress the MIC/LINE switch ­ this increases the sensitivity of the input and is set for use with a dynamic microphone. Set the "TREBLE" and the "BASS" control to "0" (IN THE CENTER AT THE DETENT). While talking loudly into the microphone bring up the channel volume until the red "PEAK" indicator blinks quickly. If the indicator does not come on at all and you have turned the channel volume to "10", then reduce the channel volume to "7" and move on to the next step. If the "PEAK" indicator comes on at "3" for instance, then press the MIC/LINE switch returning it to the "up" position and increase the channel volume control. [. . . ] Reduce the INPUT level controls and increase the output level of your source devices. Too much treble Not enough bass Sound is thin Speakers not connected properly Effects levels may be too high Not enough treble Sound is too boomy or dark Too much bass Improper A/C ground or faulty equipment connected to mixer input Faulty cable between source equipment and mixer Improper A/C grounding, ground loops Hum or Buzz that increases or decreases when the mixer level controls are moved Hum or Buzz Excessively long unbalanced cable run Improper system gain structure 20 Symptom Noise or hiss heard at outputs Likely Cause Noisy source device Unused channel volumes are up too high What to do Disconnect the devices that are connected to your mixer one at a time. If the noise goes away, the problem is with the source or the connecting cable. Lower the channel volume on unused channels to "0" Speakers should be between the audience and the microphones in order to avoid feedback. Turn up the "monitor output volume" on the mixer Make sure that the channel input volume is turned up Your headphones have too high of an impedance. [. . . ]
