User manual STANTON SMX.501

[. . . ] · To prevent overheating, always provide your mixer with adequate ventilation air space. · To avoid damage due to AC voltage peaks, always disconnect your mixer from the power source during electrical storms. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage or personal injury resulting from unauthorized user-servicing or modifications. In addition, the warranty will be void if any unauthorized service by the user is detected. [. . . ] CFX (Cue FX) Routes the signal from the effects to the headphones allowing the user to preview the effects mix in the headphones. MFX (Master FX) Routes the signal sent to the master output through the effects loop. This simply means that all audio coming out of the mixer will be processed. This is very useful for effects such as filters or compressors. DESCRIPTION OF FUNCTIONS MICROPHONE SECTION MIC 1 Controls the input level of Microphone input 1. HI, MID, LOW (EQ) Individual controls for high frequency, midrange, and low frequency equalization with +9dB/Kill adjustments. Note: Any changes made to EQ settings will change the overall output level. See Master Section for details. FRONT CURVE The Crossfader Curve Control adjusts the curve of the fader from a short cut to a long fade. CROSSFADER ASSIGN This is used to assign a channel to either side of the crossfader or to bypass it. HEADPHONE MUTE This is a mute button that can be used to turn off the headphones without readjusting the volume. HEADPHONES This is the headphone output jack to connect your headphones. FA D E R C L E A N I N G A N D R E P L A C E M E N T After constant use the SMX. 501 faders may need to be cleaned and lubricated from time to time. This will ensure long life and keep a smooth feeling throughout the fader's lifetime. Follow the instructions below to lubricate and clean your faders: Removing a fader: 1. Make sure mixer is powered off and power supply is disconnected from back of mixer. To remove the Protekt Panel, take off the 4 main fader knobs and then remove the 4 screws located at the corners of the panels. Remove the fader to be cleaned or replaced by unscrewing the 2 outer screws on the fader plate (removing the 2 inner screws will detach the fader from the fader plate). Disconnect the fader from mixer by removing the 4pin connector on the bottom of the fader. Once original fader has been removed, simply plug the 4-pin connector into the new fader. There is a recessed button on the left end of the front panel which switches the mixer circuit between a standard fader and the Focus Fader (not included). When the LED above the button is lit, the Focus Fader circuit is engaged. (NOTE: The P&G fader is designed with floating mounting threads for precise mechanical centralizing of the fader. If you desire to keep your fader`s current mounting position we suggest that you make 2 marks on both ends of the fader on the fader plate to indicate the P&G fader position. ) See Figure 1. Once fader is removed from unit, remove the two screws (A) from the end of the fader body where the wires exit the fader casing. [. . . ] 6. 6) Insert fader track back into fader body with wires coming out open end of fader body. 6. 7) Secure the remaining end block ensuring that the track wires (I) are not pinched between the end block and fader casing. Once assembled, move the slider from end to end to ensure operation is smooth. (NOTE: As noted earlier if you do not want to change positioning of fader, keep the 2 fader plate screws loose and shift the fader until it is aligned with the marks you created in step 1, then tighten fader plate screws. ) T E C H N I C A L S P E C I F I C AT I O N S Line inputs: Phono inputs: Mic inputs: Return inputs: Send output: Master output: Record output: Booth output: Headphone output: Frequency Response: Tone Control : Max Gain: S/N Ratio: T.
