• Never let the power cord come into contact with other cables! Handle the power cord and all
connections with the mains with particular caution!
• Never remove warning or informative labels from the unit.
• Never use anything to cover the ground contact.
• Never leave any cables lying around.
• Do not insert objects into air vents.
• Do not connect this system to a dimmer pack.
• Do not switch the system on and off in short intervals, as this would reduce the system’s life.
• Do not open the device and do not modify the device.
• Do not drive the inputs with a signal level bigger, than required to drive the equipment to full output.
• Do not plug Mics into the console (or stage box) while Phantom Power is on. Also mute the monitor /
Pa system when turning Phantom Power on or off. Allow the system to adjust for a couple of seconds,
before setting the input gains.
• Only use system indoor, avoid contact with water or other liquids.
• Avoid flames and do not put close to flammable liquids or gases.
• Always disconnect power from the mains, when system is not used. Only handle the power cord by
the plug. Never pull out the plug by tugging the power cord.
• Always operate the unit with the AC ground wire connected to the electrical system ground.
• Make sure you do not use the wrong kind of cables or defective cables.
• Make sure that the signals into the mixer are balanced, otherwise hum could be created.
• Make sure you use DI boxes to balance unbalanced signals; All incoming signals should be clear.
• Make sure that the available voltage is not higher than stated on the rear panel.
• Make sure that the power cord is never crimped or damaged. Check the system and the power
cord from time to time.
• Please turn off the power switch, when changing the power cord or signal cable, or select the input
mode switch.
• Extreme frequency boosts in connection with a high input signal level may lead to overdriving your
equipment. Should this occur, it is necessary to reduce the input signal level by using the INPUT
control.
• To emphasize a frequency range, you do not necessarily have to move its respective control
upward; try lowering surrounding frequency ranges instead. This way, you avoid causing the next
piece of equipment in your sound path to overdrive. You also preserve valuable dynamic reserve
(“headroom”)
• Avoid ground loops! Always be sure to connect the power amps and the mixing console to the
same electrical circuit to ensure the same phase!
• If system is dropped or struck, disconnect mains power supply immediately. Have a qualified
engineer inspect for safety before operating.
• If the system has been exposed to drastic temperature fluctuation (e.g. after transportation), do not
switch it on immediately. The arising condensation water might damage your system. Leave the
system switched off until it has reached room temperature.
• If your Dap Audio device fails to work properly, discontinue use immediately. Pack the unit securely
(preferably in the original packing material)and return it to your Dap Audio dealer for service.
• Repairs, servicing and electric connection must be carried out by a qualified technician.
• For replacement use fuses of same type and rating only.
• WARRANTY: Till one year after date of purchase.
Operating Determinations
• This device is not designed for permanent operation. Consistent operation breaks will ensure that the
device will serve you for a long time without defects.
• The minimum distance between light output and the illuminated surface must be bigger than 0.5
meter.
• The maximum ambient temperature t
• The relative humidity must not exceed 50 % with an ambient temperature of 40° C.
• If this device is operated in any other way, than the one described in this manual, the product may

Names and Functions
MIC INPUT JACKS (CHs 1 to 7/8)
The balanced XLR input connects to microphones, DI boxes and
multicores.
LINE INPUT JACKS (CHs 1 to 4)
This is a ¼" jack connector which connects to line-level signal sources
(for example, keyboards, CD players and wireless microphone
receivers). The input is balanced (TRS connector) but can also be used
with unbalanced connectors (TS connector).
LINE INPUT JACKS (CHs 5/6 to 11/12)
The stereo channels consist of two line inputs (¼" jacks), one for the left
and one for the right channel. The inputs are unbalanced
(TS connectors). These channels can also be used as mono channels by
connecting to the jack labeled “L” (left).
LINE INPUT JACKS (CH 9/10 to 11/12)
These are unbalanced stereo RCA pin jacks.
NOTE: Where an input channel provides both, a MIC input jack and a
LINE input jack or a LINE input jack and RCA pin jack, you can only use
one pair of jacks at a time. Please connect to only one jack on each
channel.
INSERT JACKS
The INS(ert) connector (¼" stereo jack connector) is used to connect to
external signal processors. Here you can hook up a compressor, noise
gate or equalizer to process the signal of a single channel. The insert
jack is placed before the fader, EQ and aux send. Please use an insert
cable to connect to the insert point.
GAIN CONTROL
The GAIN CONTROL adjusts the input gain.
Be sure to set this control fully counter-clockwise before you connect or
disconnect a signal source to or from one of the inputs.
MONO: The first value range between 0 and +50 refers to the
microphone input, indicating the degree of amplification applied to
the input's signal. The second value range between +15 and -35 dB
refers to the amplification of the line input.
STEREO: The first value range between 0 and +40 refers to the
microphone input, indicating the degree of amplification applied to
the input's signal. The second value range between +20 and -20 dB
refers to the amplification of the line input.
LOW CUT
Press the LOW CUT switch to activate the high-pass filter which blends
out low-frequency noise (100 Hz, 18 dB/octave).
COMPRESSOR CONTROL
Turn the control to the right to increase the compression ratio and the
output gain will automatically be adjusted. The result is smoother, more
even dynamics, as louder signals are attenuated when the overall level

GIG-1000CFX
The Peak LED lights at a level of 3 dB below clipping.
EQUALIZER
Hi
The high-frequency range is processed with a shelving filter above 12
kHz. You can boost or cut the bands up to 15 dB. When in center
position (0 dB), the equalizer has a flat response.
MID
The HIGH MID control adjusts the mid frequency range. This is a peak
filter which boosts and cuts the frequencies centered at 2,5 kHz. You
can boost or cut the bands up to 15 dB. When in center position (0
dB), the equalizer has a flat response.
Low
The low-frequency range is processed with a shelving filter below 80
Hz. You can boost or cut the bands up to 15 dB. When in center
position (0 dB), the equalizer has a flat response.
AUX
The aux bus is used as an additional, flexible sending path for various
applications. The AUX control adjusts the volume level of the channel
signal in the aux bus.
PRE/POST
Press the PRE/POST switch to change the routing of the aux path from
“post-fader” to “pre-fader.” This way the volume level of the effects
signal is not affected by the channel fader.
FX/POST
The FX bus is used as send path to the internal effect unit. The signal is
tapped after the channel fader and therefore is affected by the
position of the channel fader. The FX control adjusts the volume level
of the channel signal to the effects unit.
PAN/BAL CONTROL
The PAN control determines the position of the channel signal in the
stereo mix as well as the subgroup, to which the channel signal is
routed.
MUTE
The MUTE switch mutes the channel. This means that the channel
signal has been removed from the main mix and subgroups. At the
same time the FX, monitor and aux paths of the respective channel
are muted as well. The corresponding MUTE LED indicates that the
channel has been muted.
PFL
Press the PFL switch to hear the signal on your headphones and
simultaneously see it on the monitor display. The corresponding LED
lights up when the solo function is activated.
PEAK LED
The PEAK LED lights up as soon as the channel's level is too high. In this
case, reduce the channel's input amplification with the GAIN control.
