Operating Manual - LX-308B Stereo Line/Microphone Mixer
1. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations on your purchase of an Ashly
LX-308B stereo line level mixer. The LX308B improves
upon the LX308 with the addition of On/Off switches to all
eight inputs, and peak signal detection on all inputs. Other
features include eight balanced stereo inputs for line level
sources, the first two inputs with switchable 30dB gain for
low impedance dynamic microphones. A concentric level
and pan control for each input adjusts channel volume and
stereo position. Submaster inputs and outputs are provided
for cascading two or more mixers. Ultra low-noise sum-
ming amplifiers combine the channel signals for the main
outputs. A pair of 6-segment LED meter arrays monitor the
main output levels. Separate level controls are provided for
stereo, mono, and headphone outputs.
2. UNPACKING
As a part of our system of quality control, every
Ashly product is carefully inspected before leaving the
factory to ensure flawless appearance. After unpacking,
please inspect for any physical damage. Save the ship-
ping carton and all packing materials , as they were care-
fully designed to reduce to minimum the possibility of
transportation damage should the unit again require pack-
ing and shipping. In the event that damage has occurred,
immediately notify your dealer so that a written claim to
cover the damages can be initiated.
The right to any claim against a public carrier
can be forfeited if the carrier is not notified promptly and
if the shipping carton and packing materials are not avail-
able for inspection by the carrier. Save all packing mate-
rials until the claim has been settled.
3. AC POWER REQUIREMENTS
The LX-308B mixer will perform normally from
95 to 125 volts AC. Use only properly grounded AC re-
ceptacles. To reduce the risk of ground loop hum, use a
central point for system AC power distribution. The AC
line fuse is internal, and should only be changed by a
qualified service technician.
4. SECURITY COVERS
For installations where it is desirable to protect
the front panel controls from tampering or accidental
misadjustment, use the Ashly security cover, which is
available in both single and double rack space sizes. In-
stallation is simple and does not require removal of the
equipment from your rack. See your Ashly dealer for
details.
