L-PAD 8CX - Mixer RCF - Free user manual and instructions

USER MANUAL L-PAD 8CX RCF

1. Read all precautions, in particular those related to safety, very carefully as they provide important information.

WARNING: to prevent the risk of fire or electric shock, never expose this product to rain or humidity.

2. POWER SUPPLY FROM MAINS

a. The mains voltage is sufficiently high to cause electrocution; install and connect the device before plugging it in.
b. Before powering up, make sure that all the connections have been made correctly and the voltage of your mains corresponds to the voltage shown on the rating plate on the unit. Contact your RCF dealer if it does not.
c. The metallic parts of the unit are earthed through the power cable. The device is a CLASS I apparatus and must be plugged into an earthed socket.
d. Protect the power cable from damage; make sure it is positioned in a way that it cannot be stepped on or crushed by objects.
e. To prevent the risk of electric shock, never open this product: there are no parts inside that the user needs to access.

1. Make sure that no objects or liquids get into the device, as this may cause a short circuit.

The device must not be exposed to drips or splashes. Do not place objects filled with liquid, such as vases, on the device. Do not place naked flames (such as lighted candles) on the device.

1. Never attempt to carry out any operations, modifications or repairs that are not expressly described in this manual.

Contact your authorized service centre or qualified personnel should any of the following occur:

• The device does not work (or works anomalously).
• The power cable has been damaged.
• Objects or liquids have got into the device.

• The device has been subject to a heavy shock.

• Unplug the device if it will not be used for a long time.

• Switch the device off immediately and unplug it if emission of strange odours or smoke is noticed.

• Do not connect the device to any equipment or accessories other than those provided for the purpose.

For suspended installation, only use the dedicated anchoring points. Do not try to hang the device using unsuitable elements or elements which are not specific for this purpose. Also check the suitability of the support surface to which the product is anchored (wall, ceiling, structure, etc.), and the components used for attachment (screw anchors, screws, brackets not supplied by RCF etc.), which must guarantee the security of the system / installation over time, also considering, for example, the mechanical vibrations normally generated by transducers.

To prevent the risk of falling, do not stack multiple units of the device unless this possibility is specified in the user manual.

1. RCF S.p.A. strongly recommends this product is only installed by professional qualified installers (or specialised firms) who can ensure correct installation and certify it according to the regulations in force.

The entire audio system must comply with the current standards and regulations regarding electrical systems.

1. Supports and trolleys

The equipment should be only used on trolleys or supports of the type recommended by the manufacturer, where necessary. The equipment / support / trolley assembly must be moved with extreme caution. Sudden stops, excessive pushing force and uneven floors may cause the assembly to overturn.

1. Numerous mechanical and electrical factors must be considered when installing a professional audio system (in addition to strictly acoustic factors, such as sound pressure, coverage angles, frequency response etc.).

2. Hearing loss

Exposure to high sound levels can cause permanent hearing loss. The sound pressure level which causes hearing loss is different from person to person and depends on the exposure time. Adequate protection devices must be used to prevent potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels. Ear plugs or protective ear muffs must be worn when a transducer capable of producing high sound levels is used. See the technical specifications in the manual for the maximum sound pressure level.

IMPORTANT NOTES

• To prevent the occurrence of noise on line signal cables, use screened cables only and avoid putting them close to:
• Equipment generating high-intensity electromagnetic fields
• Power cables
• Speaker lines

OPERATING PRECAUTIONS

• Place the device away from sources of heat and always ensure an adequate air circulation around it.
• Do not overload this product for a long time.
• Never force the controls (buttons, knobs etc.).
• Do not use solvents, alcohol, benzene or other volatile substances for cleaning the external parts of the device.

IMPORTANT NOTES

Please read this instruction manual carefully and keep it on hand for future reference before connecting and using the device. The manual is an integral part of the device and must accompany it when it changes ownership as a reference for correct installation and use as well as for the safety precautions. RCF S.p.A. will not assume any responsibility for the incorrect installation and/or use of the device.

MIC input (Ch. 1 - Ch. 5/6) Connect your microphones to these balanced XLR connectors: pin1=Earth, pin2=Hot, pin3=Cold. These inputs are provided with +48 V phantom power for condenser or electret microphones. Gain scale 0 dB/-50 dB.

LINE input (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) Connect your line level devices to these TRS jack connectors: tip=Hot, ring=Cold, sleeve=Earth. These inputs are suitable for external pre-amplifier and DI-boxes. Gain scale +15 dB/-35 dB.

INSERT (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) These TRS connectors: tip=send, ring=Return, sleeve=common earth allow to send the signal, thru an unbalanced line, to external devices (i.e. compressor) and return the processed signal back into the channel.

GAIN (Ch. 1 - Ch. 5/6) This controls the level gain (0 dB/-50 dB for microphone input and +15 dB/-35 dB for line input when in use).

LOW CUT switch: Press this button to cut off frequency below 75 Hz with a slope of 12 dB/oct. This is useful to prevent rumbling when using microphones.

COMP COMP

COMP (Ch. 1 - Ch. 2) A single potentiometer controls both compressor threshold and ratio.

MAIN MIX output: Unbalanced TRS jacks. Plug in your active speakers or main sound reinforcement system amplifier (for passive speakers) of here.

CONTROL ROOM output: Connect to these TRS Jack your Studio Monitor or local speakers.

FX SEND output: The signal going to the Internal FX is replicated in this TRS Jack for different application. If the internal FX is not used, plug a wedge monitor into this jack for the stage or an external FX device. The processed signal from the FX device is returned to the RCF mixing consoles mixer via the Stereo Return jacks.

PHONES: TRS stereo jack, Tip = Left, Ring = Right, Sleeve = Common Earth. Plug your headphone in here to listen to MAIN MIX.

FOOTSWITCH: TS connector, Tip = FX, Sleeve = EARTH. Connect a footswitch here. Press once to bypass the FX, press again to resume the FX. The same function is available for the FX MUTE button.

HOW TO IMPROVE THE SOUND

The RCF mixing consoles mixer implements several powerful tools to improve the sound quality of your music even more.

COMP COMP

cOMp: Turn the COMP control clockwise to add a compression effect to the signal. This allows to control the dynamic of the signal, limiting peaks and gaining level in case of low signals.

EQ: A three-band EQ is available on each mono channel, while a dual-band EQ is available on stereo channels 9-10 and 11-12. Adjust these parameters to subtract noise frequencies or magnify desired sounds.

INTERNAL FX: Keep singing in the microphone, turn clockwise the yellow FX send until the red led PEAK/MUTE lights occasionally. Turn the INTERNAL FX PROGRAM select encoder and press it to confirm the selection of the required FX (see the FX LIST below). Now, turn the FX RETURN fader up carefully. Stop at the required level.

Ten effect algorithms are available with ten variations each:

FX LIST

00-09 ECHO
10-19 ECHO+VERB
20-29 TREMOLO
30-39 PLATE
40-49 CHORUS
50-59 VOCAL
60-69 ROTARY
70-79 SMALL ROOM
80-89 FLANGE+VERB
90-99 LARGE HALL

EcHO: Ideal for delay effects. Use for vocals and brass.

ECHO+VERB: A deeper, more sophisticated effect than ECHO. It adds a reverb effect to delay rebounds.

TREMOLO: Ideal guitar effect.

pLATE: Recommended for snare drums or percussions, like congas or timbales.

cHORUS: Try this effect on an acoustic guitar or to create a deeper stereo effect for background vocals.

VOcAL: Ideal for adding depth and intensity to leading vocals or solo instruments.

ROTARY: Great for Hammond organs or Rhodes Pianos.

SMALL ROOM: Try this effect with small percussions, like castanet or claves.

FLANGE+VERB: Great for electric guitar to obtain particular effects.

LARGE HALL: good for voices, power electric guitar and main instruments, especially on ballad songs.
