XENYX QX1202USB/QX1002USB Controls

(EN) Step 2: Controls

This chapter describes the various control elements

of your mixing console. All controls, switches and

connectors will be discussed in detail.

(1) MIC – Each mono input channel oers a

balanced microphone input via the XLR

connector and also features switchable

+48V phantom power supply for condenser

microphones. The XENYX preamps provide

undistorted and noisefree gain as is typically

known only from costly outboard preamps.

(2) LINE IN – Each mono input also features

a balanced line input on a ¼" connector.

Unbalanced devices (mono jacks) can also be

connected to these inputs. Please remember

that you can only use either the microphone

or the line input of a channel at any one time.

You can never use both simultaneously!

(3) GAIN – Use the GAIN control to adjust the

input gain. This control should always be

turned fully counterclockwise whenever you

connect or disconnect a signal source to one

of the inputs.

(4) EQ – All mono input channels include a

3-band equalizer. All bands provide boost

or cut of up to 15 dB. In the central position,

theequalizer is inactive.

(5) LOW CUT – In addition, the mono channels

are equipped with a steep LOW CUT

lter designed to eliminate unwanted

low-frequency signalcomponents.

(6) FX – FX sends enable you to feed signals via

a variable control from one or more channels

and sum these signals to a bus. Thebus

appears at the console’s FX send output

and can be fed from there to an external

eects device. The return from the eects

unit is then brought back into the console

on the stereo channels. Each FX send is

mono and features up to +15 dB gain. In the

QX1002USB/QX1202USB, the FX send is routed

directly to the built-in eects processor.

Tomake sure that the eects processor

receives an input signal, youshouldn’t turn

this control all the way to the left (-∞).

(7) PAN – The PAN control determines the

position of the channel signal within

the stereo image. This control features a

constant-power characteristic, whichmeans

the signal is always maintained at a

constant level, irrespective of position in the

stereopanorama.

(8) LEVEL – The LEVEL control determines the

level of the channel signal in the main mix.

(9) CLIP – The CLIP LED’s of the mono channels

illuminate when the input signal is driven

too high, which could cause distortion. Ifthis

happens, use the GAIN control to reduce

the preamp level until the LED does not

lightanymore.

(10) LINE IN – Each stereo channel has two

balanced line level inputs on ¼" jacks for left

and right channels. If only the jack marked “L”

(left) is used, the channel operates in mono.

The stereo channels are designed to handle

typical line level signals. Both inputs will also

accept unbalanced jacks.

(11) FX – The FX sends of the stereo channels

function similar to those of the mono

channels. However, since the FX send buses

are both mono, a mono sum is rst taken from

the stereo input before it is sent to the FX bus.

(12) BAL – The BAL(ANCE) control determines the

levels of left and right input signals relative

to each other before both signals are then

routed to the main stereo mix bus. If a channel

is operated in mono via the left line input,

this control has the same function as the PAN

control used in the mono channels.

(13) +4/-10 – The stereo inputs of the XENYX

QX1002USB and QX1202USB have an

input sensitivity switch which selects

between +4dBu and -10dBV. At -10 dBV

(home-recording level), the input is more

sensitive (requires less level to drive it) than at

+4 dBu (studio level).

(14) FX TO MAIN – The FX TO MAIN control feeds

the eects signal into the main mix. If the

control is turned all the way counterclockwise,

no eects signal is present in the sum signal of

the mixing console.

(15) FX SEND – The FX SEND connector outputs

the signal you picked up from the individual

channels using the FX controls. You can

connect this to the input of an external

eects device in order to process the FX bus’

master signal. Once an eects mix is created,

theprocessed signal can then be routed

from the eects device outputs back into a

stereoinput.

(16) PHONES/CONTROL ROOM – The stereo

PHONES jack (at the top of the connector

panel) is where you connect headphones.

Theunbalanced CTRL ROOM OUT jacks

carry the summed eects and main mix

signals, aswell as soloed channel signals.

ThePHONES/CONTROL ROOM control adjusts

the level of both headphones and main

monitor outputs.

(17) MAIN MIX – The MAIN OUT connectors are

unbalanced mono jacks. The main mix signal

appears here at a level of 0 dBu. The MAIN MIX

fader adjusts the volume of theseoutputs.

(18) CD/TAPE INPUT – The CD/TAPE INPUTs

are used to bring an external signal source

(e.g.CD player, tape deck, etc.) into the

console. Theycan also be used as a standard

stereo line input, so the output of a second

XENYX or BEHRINGER ULTRALINK PRO MX882

can be connected.

(19) CD/TAPE OUTPUT – These connectors are

wired in parallel with the MAIN OUT and carry

the main mix signal (unbalanced). Connectthe

CD/TAPE OUTPUT to the inputs of your

recording device. The output level is adjusted

via the high-precision MAIN MIX fader.

(20) USB/2-TR TO PHONES/CTRL RM

button routes USB/2-Track playback to

PHONES/CTRL ROOM.

(21) USB/2-TR TO MAIN MIX button routes

USB/2-Track playback to MAIN MIX and mutes

the 2-TR OUT/USB recording signal.

(22) FX TO CTRL ROOM – If you want to monitor

only the FX send signal in your headphones

or monitor speaker(s), press the FX TO CTRL

switch. This mutes the main mix signal while

routing the FX SEND output to the monitor(s).

(23) +48 V – The +48 V LED lights up when

phantom power is on. The PHANTOM switch

activates the phantom power supply on the

XLR connectors of all mono channels.

(24) POWER – The POWER LED indicates that the

console is powered on.

(25) LEVEL INDICATOR – The high-precision

4-segment display accurately displays the

relevant signal level.

(26) SIGNAL and CLIP LED – The SIGNAL LED on

the eects module shows the presence of a

signal whose level is high enough. This LED

should always be on. However, make sure

that the CLIP LED lights up only sporadically.

If it is lit constantly, you are overdriving the

eects processor, which leads to unpleasant

distortion. If this occurs, turn the FX controls

down somewhat.

(27) PROGRAM – The PROGRAM control has two

functions: by turning the PROGRAM control,

you dial the number of an eect. The number

of the preset you just dialed up blinks in the

display. To conrm your selection, press the

PROGRAM control; the blinking stops.

(28) COMP – This knob adjusts the amount of

compression eect on the channel.

(29) PHANTOM – Press this button to send +48V

of phantom power to the XLR inputs for use

with condenser microphones.

(30) USB CONNECTOR  Connect your mixer to a

computer using a standard USB cable.

(31) AC POWER IN – Connect the included power

cable here.

The mixer cannot be bus-powered via USB.

Alwaysuse the included power adapter to supply

power to the mixer.
