12.4 VCA option

The SX-V modules can be mounted with VCAs instead of plain faders. A DB25 computer type connector allows control of the VCA with an external DC voltage (for example a video editor). The control voltage ranges from 0 to 5 volts. When used with an external controllers, the faders must be positioned at 0dB.

13. TIPS ON USING YOUR MIXER

The SONOSAX SX-S has been designed to ensure unsurpassed performance. However, bear in mind that a good sound recording greatly depends on the dynamics.

We thus recommend the following:

{Adjust the input gain level at maximum level BEFORE overload, that is with a modulation level between 0dB and +6dB on the modulometer (PFL ON)

{Input faders should be between 0dB and +10dB.

{Output faders should be below maximum.

{Preferably operate at highest possible levels at the first amplification stages or at the mic pre-amp levels.

{Make sure that interconnection between the SONOSAX SX-S and other equipment is correct and optimal.

{Optimize operating conditions (location, quality of mic) rather than using the equalizer.

{Avoid operating with filter at maximum.

{Switch off unused input modules and make sure that the gain potentiometer is on MIN.

Considering the extensive possibilities offered by your SONOSAX SX-S, this instruction manual may not answer all questions that may arise during operation of your equipment.

Please contact your nearest SONOSAX dealer for any further nformation.
