Sound Check

STANDARD INSTALLATION

∙Connect the PowerMate’s AUX3 SEND with the external amplifier’s input, using the Balanced NF-cable with the stereo phone plug on one end and the XLR-type connector on the other.

∙Connect all microphones preferably to the monaural inputs of the PowerMate and the keyboards and other comparable sound sources to the rest of the available inputs

∙Pull all faders down and engage the PowerMate’s STANDBY button. This measure prevents unw anted feedback.

∙First, switch the PowerMate on and then the external amplifier.

∙In case you have condenser microphones connected to the PowerMate, you can now turn on the phantom power by pressing the PHANTOM switch.

∙Activate the PowerMate’s operational mode through pressing the STANDBY button again.

∙First, adjust the input levels of the microphones that are connected to the PowerMate. Ple ase proceed as follows:

1.Set the corresponding gain controls and the channel faders to their lowest position.

2.Speak or sing as loud as possible into the microphone.

3.Use the gain control to adjust the level, so that even at loud passages the red PEAK LED is not lit but the green SIGNAL present LED lights constantly.

∙Adjust the EQ of the monaural input channels:

1.Slide the channel fader and the master faders up a bit, so that the sound is heard coming from the main speakers.

2.Turn the MID control carefully all the way to the right (+15dB). You should not hear any feedback.

3.Play the sound source or speak into the connected microphone.

4.Turn the frequency control (kHz) slowly from left to right.

5.Surely and within no time, you will detect the frequency range that is not to your liking or causing the feedback.

6.Leave the frequency control in this position and turn the MID control to the left until the sound is natural or to your liking.

7.If necessary, adjust the Hi and LOW controls, starting from their centered position, until the sound matches your personal taste.

8.Repeat the steps 1 - 7 for all monaural input channels in use.

∙In case you are also using the stereo input channels, you can adjust the levels in a similar w ay:

1.Set the LINE TRIM controls, the MIC gain controls, and the channel fader to their lowest setting.

2.Play the corresponding sound source at the highest volume that is to be expected during the performance.

3.Use the LINE TRIM control to adjust the level, so that even at loud passages the red PEAK LED is not lit but the green SIGNAL present LED lights constantly.

∙Adjust the EQ of the stereophonic input channels:

1.Slide the channel fader and the master faders a bit up, so that you can hear the sound through the main speakers.

2.Adjust the EQ controls at their center position.

3.Play the corresponding sound source.
