1 & 2. SPEAKER OUTPUTS
The 1/4” JACK (1.), and
The minimum load for each amp is 4 OHMS. Chaining together more than one speaker on an output is fine as long as the total impedance is not below 4 ohms. If the speaker load is lower than 4 ohms, the amp may go into one of the PROTECT modes. (Two 8 ohm speakers in parallel = 4 ohms) 12 Gauge TWIST- LOK speaker cables are an industry standard for high power applicattions (pin 1+ is POS, pin 1- is NEG, pins 2+ and 2- are not used). The 1/4” jacks are used for lower power applications. Use only 16 gauge (or heavier) speaker cables, NOT shielded instrument cables. Turn power off before connecting speaker cables.

3.AMP ROUTING switch will select between two internally routed configurations: OUT postion:
IN position: 1 amp each, for Monitors 1 thru 4.
Speaker output levels are adjusted from the Left/Right faders or Monitor
4.AMP PATCH INSERT jacks offer full flexibility for mixer to amp signal routing. These jacks are

C1644P FRONT PANEL INDICATORS:
5.AMP CLIP LEDs - The red CLIP LEDs will flash when the particular amp has reached it’s maximum output. Occasional flashing caused by bass frquencies is OK. Consistent flashing caused by higher fre- quencies may damage drivers due to excessive distortion. This will not damage the amp.
6.PROTECT LED - The yellow LED indicates the power amp system has gone into one of its protection modes. There will be no output from the amps. If the amp output has been short circuited, or overloaded by putting less than 4 ohms on the output the amp will go into protection. Check for shorted speaker cables and speaker impedance, then reset the POWER switch

C1644
CONCERT 44 SERIES The C844, C1644(P), C2444 and C3244 feature 8 to 32 channels with true 4- bus performance. The C1644P adds four 300 watt power amplifiers built into our ROAD WARRIOR case. Never before have so many features been packed into such a rugged, compact USA made mixer. The best feature of the Concert 44 Series is the sound. Sound that is pure and quiet enough for digital recording studios. Everything is logically laid out making the powerful features simple to use. The knobs have been located so that adjust- ments can be made quick and easy with visible pointers showing you the status of your mix at a glance.
TRUE
TWO EFFECT SENDS / TWO
FOUR MONITOR SENDS Every channel has 4 MONITOR sends with MASTER output level controls. Monitor
send jacks are balanced TRS.
3 BAND EQ/MID SWEEP The superb EQ system gives extended 15 dB boost and cut tone shaping. The LOW frequency control builds bass starting with 20 Hz through 80 Hz for a solid
CHANNEL FEATURES Every channel has a full balanced XLR and LINE (1/4”) preamp with an INSERT jack for a compressor or EQ that also serves as a DIRECT OUT when plugged half way. The PAN con- trol directs the channel into the L/R output or any of the 4 sub groups after depressing the appropriate ASSIGN switches. A PFL (pre fader listen) switch allows you to hear the channel in the headphones before the fader is turned up. A solid “on” condition of the PEAK LED indicates that the MUTE switch has been activated which turns the channel off including all monitor and effect sends. When flashing during use, the PEAK LED also lets you know when to adjust the channel’s GAIN control to prevent chan- nel cliping. The SIGNAL LED lets you know that a signal is coming through the channel starting at
MASTER FEATURES Each of the 4 SUB GROUP faders can be switched to the R/L outputs or used independently through their own balanced output jacks. Each of the sub group’s PFL switches allow you to listen to the sub groups in your headphones before it is turned up. The R/L MAIN output faders are independent for added flexibility over a single stereo fader. A MONO control sums both the R/L outputs together
SWITCHING POWER SUPPLY Our exclusive 125k Hz switching power supply eliminates trans- former noise. Like a laptop computer, go anywhere in the world and not worry about power because you can run on any voltage from 90 to 250VAC. (except C1644P)
SUPERB SOUND
ENGINEERED TO LAST Hidden deep in the heart of these San Diego, CA made mixers is the SMT con- struction that utilizes surface mounted components to prevent malfunctions caused by vibrations. Sealed controls and switches guard against the outside elements while
