Feature Over view 2 A brief description of the Vx design, features and functions. Mixing with VCA's 3 Adapted from “Mixing with VCA's,” by Mark Smith, in LIVE SOUND! Magazine. Wiring Conventions 5 Contains diagrams indicating how connectors for Crest consoles are wired.
Feature Over view The Century Series has the audio quality, features, and func- tions demanded by the modern music professional. The Vx is the first Crest Console to use VCA's, includes all of th.
An introduction to VCA's A VCA (voltage controlled amplifier) uses a DC control volt- age to attenuate or boost an audio signal. The VCA DOES NOT have Audio signal present in the fader . The fader only controls the amount of voltage (level) an input can have to a mix buss or summing amp.
One of the major benefits of VCA’s is that any move made on a VCA Subgroup will cause all inputs assigned to that Subgroup to move in direct proportion with it. Inherently, all effects assigned (or turned up) on any input modules that are controlled with VCA’s will “follow” any moves made in the exact proportion also.
V X P AGE 5 C ENTURY S ERIES W iring Conventions Crest consoles are wired with connectors that are used throughout the professional audio industry. Wiring is as follows: 1 2 3 PIN 1 = GROUND PIN 2 = P.
Rear Connections The rear connections facilitate the numerous inputs and outputs necessary for successful mixing. Since the console is of little use until it is wired into a whole system, an understanding of what each input and output does is necessary before it can be properly connected.

Mono Bal Out This male XLR jack delivers a balanced post-fader signal containing all signals assigned to the Mono clean bus.
Supply Identification The type of power supply can be identified by the model num- ber shown on the back of the chassis and panel label.

V X P AGE 10 C ENTURY S ERIES System Connections The console is the hub of a sound system. Because it controls most of the variables within a system, proper connection and com- ponent relationships are vital to assure accurate operation and results. The following diagrams illustrate conventional system con- nections.

V X P AGE 12 C ENTURY S ERIES Vx Input Module The input module is the main method by which input signals are brought into the console. The Vx input module takes the new features introduced with the GTx console and adds a more flexible Aux send/assignment Section and extensive VCA (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) functionality.
V X P AGE 13 C ENTURY S ERIES AUX SENDS 1- 8 Individual Level Controls These Push-On/Push Off pots adjust signal level sent to respective Aux buses. Pushing the switch down turns the send on or off.
V X P AGE 14 C ENTURY S ERIES Vx Stereo Input Module The Vx Stereo Input module is essentially two Vx Input mod- ules packaged to fit into a one-module space. This module is very useful for accepting remote feeds, effects outputs and other signals that require stereo handling.
V X P AGE 15 C ENTURY S ERIES STEREO Switch w/LED Like the AUX 1-6 controls, AUX 7&8 Individual Level Controls normally send a summed (L+R) signal to the AUX outputs. When the STEREO switch is depressed, AUX 7 and 8 become a send ‘left’ and ‘right’ send respectively.
