User manual CARVIN C44

[. . . ] This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of uninsulated "dangerous voltage" within the product's enclosure that may be of sufficient magnitude to constitute a risk of electric shock to persons. CAUTION RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK DO NOT OPEN This symbol is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintenance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. LIMITED WARRANTY Your Carvin mixer is guaranteed against failure for 1 YEAR unless otherwise stated. Carvin will service and supply all parts at no charge to the customer providing the unit is under warranty. Carvin assumes no responsibility for horn drivers or speakers damaged by this unit. This warranty does not cover, and no liability is assumed, for damage due to: natural disasters, accidents, abuse, loss of parts, lack of reasonable care, incorrect use, or failure to follow instructions. [. . . ] The MONITOR signals (pre-EQ, pre fader) are routed to the master MON 1, 2, 3 and 4 controls (#24) respectively before going to the output connectors (#39). The MON 4-ALT EFF 2 not only sends to the MON 4 out but also to the EFF2 if the EFF2/MON 4 switch (#21) is selected in the master EFFECTS 2 processor. This provides two simultaneous effects per channel and the use of MON 4. 13. This LED helps the operator verify that the channel is receiving a signal from the mic or instrument inputs even when the channel fader is off. If the PEAK LED flashes, the channel needs a reduction with the GAIN control (#4)to prevent distortion. A "solid" lit PEAK LED indicates that the channel has been MUTED. MASTER SECTION 20. TWO STEREO 24-BIT EFFECTS The internal 24-BIT stereo processors receive signals from the EFF 1 / EFF 2 channel controls. If the adjacent PK (peak) LED flashes, reduce the level from the channel EFF 1 / EFF 16. A "solid" PK LED will show EFFECTS 1 or 2 have This switch allows the operator to listen to a channel (pre been muted, either by the MUTE switches or by the optional fader listen) in the headphone mix to set tone and gain levels FS22 footswitch (#41). The RETURN control will adjust the as well as see the channel at the LED meter output (#32). CHANNEL ASSIGNMENT SWITCHES has its own EFFECT send that will send the signal to the effects These switches assign the channels' signal to the Master L/R processors. The red PK LED will indicate when the effects signal faders, or to the SUB-GROUP faders 1 & 2, 3 & 4 for subfrom the channel is distorting. For mono, PAN fully to the left and nel EFFECT control until the PK LED stops flashing. PAN fully EFFECT AND PARAMETERS to the right and assign a channel to Sub-Group fader 2 or ECHO: When the SELECT control is at the "7 O-clock" posi4. Likewise assigning the L/R switches sends the channel tion, it is selected to the first ECHO setting where you get a single directly to the main L or R faders.

[. . . ] When used as an insert point or in full insert mode, the channel is opened up to allow an external piece of equipment to be inserted into the channels signal path. The channel signal coming from the microphone preamplifier will be forced to go through the external equipment before it can continue back through the channel re-entering before the channel EQ controls. Most external equipment is not set up for the TRS plug directly so an adapter cable is required. The adapter cable will have on one end the TRS plug and two mono plugs either male or female on the other end. [. . . ]
