•It often helps to plug all the audio equipment into the same AC circuit so they share a common ground.

Recording to FireWire

•If you are recording vinyl music to your computer, and the level seems low, set the FW out switch

[7] in the out position, so the FireWire outputs come after the level and EQ sections. This will give you the chance to boost the levels with the level controls [29]. Set the source select switch [30] to line/phono, and the line/phono switch [5] to phono.

•If you are using timecode vinyl or timecode CD, then press in the FW out switch, so the Firewire outputs come directly after the phono section. In this way, you can have the timecode flowing to your computer, and use the source selector switch to play the computer output in that same program channel.

Repair

Service for Mackie products is available at a factory- authorized service center. Service for Mackie products living outside the United States can be obtained through local dealers or distributors.

If your d.4 Pro needs service, follow these instruc- tions:

1.Review the preceding troubleshooting sugges- tions. Please.

2.Call Tech Support at 1-800-898-3211, 7 am to

5 pm PST, to explain the problem and request a Service Request Number. Have your serial number ready. You must have a Service Request Number before you can obtain warranty service.

3.Keep this owner’s manual and the detachable linecord. We don’t need them to repair the mixer.

4.Pack the mixer in its original package, includ- ing endcaps and box. This is VERY IMPORTANT. Mackie is not responsible for any damage that occurs due to non-factory packaging.

5.Include a legible note stating your name, shipping address (no P.O. boxes), daytime phone number, Service Request Number, and a detailed description of the problem, including how we can duplicate it.

6.Write the Service Request Number in BIG PRINT on top of the box. Units sent without the SR number will be refused.

7.Tech Support will tell you where to ship the

d.4 Pro for repair. We suggest insurance for all forms of cartage.

8.You will need to contact the authorized service center for their latest turn-around times. The unit must be packaged in its original packing box, and must have the Service Request Num- ber on the box. Once it’s repaired, the autho- rized service center will ship it back by ground shipping, pre-paid (if it was a warranty repair).

Note: Under the terms of the warranty, you must ship or drop-off the unit to an authorized service center. The return ground shipment is covered for those units deemed by us to be under warranty.

Note: You must have a sales receipt from an authorized Mackie dealer for your unit to be considered for warranty repair.
