7 EURORACK MX2004A 1. INTRODUCTION Congratulations. In purchasing our EURORACK you have acquired a mixer with incredible versatility and audio performance. Your EURORACK is built to the same outstanding quality as our top-of-the range console, the BEHRINGER EURODESK MX9000.
8 EURORACK MX2004A 1.2 Before you begin 1.2.1 PSU (power supply unit) Any amplifier circuit is limited in its transient response by the available current. Every mixer has numerous line level operational amplifiers (op-amps) inside. When being driven hard, many desks begin to show signs of stress due to power supply limitations.
9 EURORACK MX2004A For level-setting (as opposed to localized listening) select the mono PFL bus rather than the post-fader (post- channel pan) stereo solo bus (CHANNEL MODE global switch up). PFL/solo never interrupts the mix at the main recording outputs.
10 EURORACK MX2004A 2.5 Insert Insert points are useful for adding dynamic processing or equalization to a channel or the mix. Unlike reverbs etc., which are usually added to the dry signal, dynamic processing is normally applied across an entire signal.
11 EURORACK MX2004A 4.2 Stereo aux returns There are two additional stereo line inputs (aux returns 1 and 2) on your MX2004A. Aux returns 1 is perma- nently assigned to the main mix. If you connect a jack to the left socket only, the aux return 1 operates in mono.
12 EURORACK MX2004A 4.5 2-track input and output Input A 2-track input, on RCA connectors / , provides easy connection to DAT and other professional or semi-professional audio equipment. The 2-track input is primarily for auditioning mix playback from tape.
13 EURORACK MX2004A 5. SETTING UP 5.1 Selecting inputs 1 ) Mono channels accept microphone or line inputs. If you are using the microphone input, make sure nothing is connected to the line input (and vice-versa). + The microphone inputs are more sensitive than the line inputs.
14 EURORACK MX2004A 5.5 Multitrack initialization Set up the multitrack so that any track in “record ready” condition has its input monitored when the tape is stationary. Place all tracks to be recorded into “record ready” status. (Once a recording has been made, these tracks should automatically switch to tape playback.

16 EURORACK MX2004A muddy FOH sound, as well as causing a reduction in feedback thresholds. Don ’ t forget to notch out trouble- some frequencies using a graphic or parametric equalizer, or feedback destroyer (see the BEHRINGER ULTRA-CURVE PRO DSP8024 or the FEEDBACK DESTROYER PRO DSP1124P, which do all of these and more).
17 EURORACK MX2004A Fig. 6.1: Project studio setup example 6. 4 Patchbay A patchbay allows to patch the audio signals of most components in your studio from a central point and send them to other units, which makes your entire cabling better structured and is indispensable for professional work.
18 EURORACK MX2004A 6.4.2 Parallel Fig. 6.2: Patchbay mode “parallel” In this mode, all terminals of one module are interconnected. This configuration doesn ’ t make sense at first glance but is used to split up and send one audio signal (e.g. a ux send) to several destinations (e.
19 EURORACK MX2004A and outputs are positioned on top of each other. Basically, the inputs are routed to the bottom and the outputs to the top rear-wall connectors. Avoid routing digital signals over a patchbay as the pulse signal used for the transmission of such signals causes heavy interference in analog signals.
20 EURORACK MX2004A thus allows for recording both to the DAT recorder and the tape deck, simply by patching it accordingly. Modules 19 & 20 (tape deck) are open, because it does not make sense connecting the inputs and outputs of the tape deck.
21 EURORACK MX2004A voices punch through a mix in a slightly unnatural but exciting way. In general corrective EQ usually involves broadband (slope) contouring, together with narrowband notching of unwanted resonances. The narrower the notch or “ Q ” , the less the total signal will be affected.
22 EURORACK MX2004A AC Power In. For connecting the mixer to the power supply unit (PSU). Always connect mixer and PSU before you connect the PSU to the mains supply. POWER switch . Once the PSU is connected to the mains supply, you may switch on your EURORACK.
