MCX-106™ Operating Guide

A Few Words about design:

The MCX™ is quite an unusual product, but the reasoning behind its design was quite simple . . . . we wanted to intergrate all the basic components of a sound reinforcement system and a recording studio into a single, transportable package.

The basic components of the MCX™ are as follows:

1.Six-channel main mixer.

2.Six-channel on-stage monitor mixer.

3.Six-channel special effects mixer.

4.Six-channel recording mixer.

5.Stereo tape deck.

6.One-octave equalizer .

7.Patch bay.

8.Headphone c u e / m o n i t o r system .

9.Three-hundred w a t t power a m p l i f i e r .

10.Road case.

Each of these "components" f u n c t i o n s independently of the others, a l t h o u g h some do share common signal processing and control c i r c u i t r y . For example, the main mixer, e f f e c t s mixer, and recording mixer all make use of t h e same i n p u t e q u a l i z a t i o n on each of the six channels. And the i n p u t trim control performs the same f u n c t i o n for all four mixing sections .
