2. INTRODUCTION
Congratulations! You are the owner of a genuine ECLER professional equipment. The NUO3 has been carefully designed in collaboration with leading dj performers and advance music producers, developed with the highest quality components, and manufactured in-house (Barcelona-Spain) under strict quality controls.
The NUO3 is a three-channel stereo mixer with capacity for 9 separate sound sources. Due to its robustness and format, the NUO3 is mainly dedicated to professional mixing applications (club,
homestudio), or anywhere where a compact sized, high performance mixer is required.
3. INSTALLATION
The first thing to take into consideration when placing your NUO3 is your comfort and an easy access to all the connections. The NUO3 is basically conceived as a tabletop mixer and its usual placement will be between two vinyls or CD players. The mixer has a 14.57’’ (37cm) depth and 8.8’’ (22.4cm) width format. The optional metallic side profiles kit allows you to firmly fix your mixer to the surface over which it is placed or over its own profiles (Fig.1). These profiles also allow to tilt the mixer's position for an easier operation.
Because of the high gain of the PHONO and MICROPHONE inputs, always try to place the mixer as far away as possible from noise sources (dimmers, engines, etc.) and mains wires. For the very same reason, and under any circumstance, you should never remove the unit's metallic cover.
The power consumption of the NUO3 is very low, so they do not need any cooling, but you should avoid extreme temperatures and the atmosphere should be as dry and dust free as possible.
The NUO3 operates now with a new universal input power supply “Switching Power Supply” and can perfectly works without any internal modification from 90V to 264V – 47 to 63Hz. Make sure that the mains -wire is far away from the signal-cables in order to avoid any possible audio hum.
In order to protect the unit from an eventual electrical overload it carries a T 500mA fuse. Should it ever blow up, unplug the unit from mains and replace it with an identical one. If the new fuse blows again contact immediately with our authorized technical service.
ATTENTION: NEVER SHORT-CIRCUIT THE SECURITY PATH NOR USE A HIGHER VALUE FUSE. CAUTION: Fuse substitutions have to be performed by a qualified technician.

H-Line 1 CD Deck Phono 1 Turntable L-Line 1 Computer, Tape players…
H-Line 2 CD Deck Phono 2 Turntable Micro 2 Microphone
H-Line 3 CD Deck Phono 3 Turntable L-Line 3 Computer, Tape players…
- Phono Inputs:
Phono Turntables must be fitted with a magnetic cartridge with nominal output level between -55dBV and -25dBV (1,77 to 56mV). The PHONO inputs (28) of the NUO3 have a high headroom (margin before saturation) and it can handle higher output cartridges than what is usual. These inputs are supplied with a nominal input sensitivity of
-40dBV (10mV). The NUO3 features a ground connection post to which the ground cable of the turntable should be
connected.
- Line Inputs:
Given the important level differences between usual LINE and CD sources, the NUO3 provides specialized inputs for each source. The sensitivity of the HIGH LINE (27) input is 0dBV (1V), while the LOW LINE (29) sensitivity is
-10dBV (316mV). CD Players, DAT, MP3, and DVD Audio should be connected to the HIGH LINE input. Tape
players, tuners and some production devices (samplers, sequencers) should be connected to the LOW LINE input.
- Microphone Inputs:
The MIC input (31) is ready for a nominal input level of -50dBV (3.16mV) and is equipped with a XLR3 connectors. The MIC ATT switch on the rear panel (30) allows a 20 dB attenuation on the input sensibility, so that it is changed from –50 to –30dB (3.16 to 31.6 mV). The connection of balanced signals is as follows:
Hot or direct signal > Pin 2 Cold or inverted signal > Pin 3 Ground > Pin 1
Low impedance (200 to 600) monophonic microphones must be used. In case of working with an unbalanced connection Pin 1 and Pin 3 must be short-circuited. The NUO3 features a Phantom power supply for the connection of condenser microphones. A set of internal jumpers allow you to inhibit the phantom power for the microphone. The default setting of these jumpers on the NUO3 is "Phantom ON". See configuration diagram.

(Send and Return) (Input and Output) Monitor Headphones
- Master Output 1:
These stereo outputs feed the main house P.A. system through a XLR3 Balanced connections. The OUT 1 (36-37) level is set at 0dBV (1V) but can be changed to +6dBV (2V) through internal jumpers. OUT 1 is controlled by MASTER 1 (23) level potentiometer.
OUT 1 additionally features a balance control BAL (25) on top the MASTER 1 control.
- Master Output 2:
Commonly used as an independent local "Booth" output for the DJ. This stereo OUT 2 (38) has unbalanced RCA connections and its level is set at 0dBV (1V) but can be changed to +6dBV (2V) through internal jumpers. The OUT 2 level controlled by the MASTER 2 (22) potentiometer.
This output additionally features a balance control BAL (24) on top the MASTER 2 control.
- Recording Output:
This output pair uses RCA type connectors. REC (35) is placed on the rear connection panel. The nominal level of the REC output is 0dBV(1V).
- External loop:
The RCA type EXTERNAL FX output SEND (33) and input RETURN (34) allow you to create an external loop with any effect, sampler or sequencer device. The signal sent to EXTERNAL FX SEND output is selected PRE- or POST-fader by the FX SEND toggle switch, while its associated knob determines the level.
The nominal levels of the SEND output and RETURN input is 0dBV (1V).
- Headphones:
In order to obtain a high performance, these should be of the high impedance type (200-600). Plug them in of the two MONITOR outputs (19), in the front panel or top panel, by means of a standard stereo jack. Sleeve is Ground, Ring is Right Channel and Tip is Left Channel.

4. QUICK START
Install and connect the NUO3 as described in the INSTALLATION paragraph nº1. We will describe a “Quick Start” procedure using the H-LINE input of channel 1 and headphone monitoring output only.
1st- Set the channel controls. Set Channel 1 GAIN, TREBLE, MID, BASS rotary controls to their detented centre position. Set the BASS OFF switch to its up position (BASS ON). Set the channel fader to its down position and assign the XFA/MIX/XFB selector to XFA (your channel is assigned to crossfader A side).
2nd- Adjust the MONITOR VOL (20) to its minimum, and move the MONITOR PFL/MIX (21) control to MIX position.
3rd- Switch ON the CD Player connected to the H-LINE input of channel 1.
4th- Connect a pair of headphones to the MONITOR Jack output (19).
5th- Connect the AC main power cord to the back of the mixer and switch ON the mixer.
6th- Check that the POWER LED below the VU­Meter is lit.
7th- Start the reproduction of a CD music track. 8th- Press the yellow PFL (7) button on channel 1
and adjust GAIN so that the left VU-Meter stays around 0dBV.
9th- Set the channel fader (11) to its up position and place the crossfader (12) on the "A" side.
10th- Adjust the MONITOR VOL (20) in order to reach a "comfort" sound level in your headphones.
11th- Check the powerful 3 band stereo equalization (3-4-5). The EQ system is designed for creative sound performance: each band can be independently isolated (OFF) through a large ergonomic rotary control, and a BASS OFF switch allows a fast bass frequency “kill” effect.
12th- Check the crossfader (12) action MIX position bypasses the crossfader function. The crossfader will allow you to fade the signals assigned at each side A & B of the slider. The movement of the crossfader allows you to create a smooth music track blend or a fast "scratch" sound cuts. The fade curve can be very precisely adjusted thanks to the CUT-IN (17) knob* (fade-in point), the SWITCH/FADE selector (15) (Rounded or Squared curve), the REVERSE selector (16) (Reverse the sense of the crossfader) and fine curve control (18).
For further operations, please read the rest of this manual. *Only if an “eternal” crossfader is installed.

5. OPERATION AND USAGE MANUAL
5.1. Start-up
To switch the mixer on push the switch labelled POWER (41) located in the rear panel. After a short time, the POWER LED below the VU-Meters will light up. Although the switching noise produced by the NUO3 is very low and almost inexistent when starting up the NUO3 with the main faders down, we highly recommend the "safe power-up sequence", which means that you should switch on your audio devices in the following order:
1. Sound sources.
2. Mixer, equalizers, active filters.
3. Finally, power amplifiers.
Powering off should be done by following the exact reverse sequence in order to avoid any possible damage to the loudspeakers.
5.2. Control Description
5.2.1. Input selector
Each channel features an input toggle switch selector (2).
5.2.2. Channel GAIN
All the NUO3 input channels have an easily accessible input sensitivity GAIN control (1). The GAIN controls adjust the input level of each channel in order to compensate the different sources connected to the mixer. All input sensitivity adjustments must be done very carefully using the VU-METER, and/or headphones as a reference. The standard level reference used to mix audio signals is 0dBV. To optimize your mix, adjust your input the closest to 0dBV on the PFL VU-meter and never reach the “clipping” level using the red “warning” PEAK led as a reference for each channel.
5.2.3. Equalization
The rotary tone controls for each channels provide a +10/-30dB boost/cut range for the bass (5) and treble (3) bands, and +10/-25dB at the mid range (4). This great attenuation range is specially designed for creative live performance. Also the bass frequencies can be “killed on the fly“ activating the BASS OFF switch (6) located below each BASS rotary knob.
ATTENTION: Use equalization carefully, by boosting too much the low frequency range, you can induce an excessive displacement of the speakers membrane.
5.2.4. Monitoring System
The NUO3 is equipped with a flexible and easy monitoring system that will allow the performers to finely tune PFL (Pre-fader listening) and Mix levels of each input through the VU-METER and the HEADPHONES.
Each channel can be monitorized visually and pre-listened pressing the dedicated yellow PFL (7) led button. For HEADPHONES monitoring, the PFL/MIX rotary potentiometer (21) allows you to blend a selected PFL together
with the main MIX Program. The VOL rotary potentiometer (20) controls the level of headphones output. The NUO3 can display (26) at the same time PFL R+L signal (on the first left VU-METER bar) together with the
Main MIX Right and Left signals (second and third VU-METER bars).
10
5.2.5. Channel send to external effect units, FX SEND
All three channels of the NUO3 are equipped with rotary potentiometers (9), which allow you to send the channel signal to an external effects unit (reverb, sampler, etc.). These pots determine the amount of signal that is sent for each channel. The SEND output (33) must be connected to the input of the effects processor, and the output of the latter can be fed back via the RETURN input or a LINE input.
This signal send can be configured either PRE- or POST-fader with the PRE/POST toggle switch (8), so that the level is affected or not by the channel fader.
5.2.6. Channel Faders
The NUO3 uses a new generation of 60mm ECLER faders (11) featuring an improved precision and very smooth movement, a very fast cut-in-time, and extra long life performance tested up to 4.000.000 operations when combined to the ECLER VCA system (VCA=Voltage Controlled Amplifier).
Thanks to the VCA concept, it is possible to modify the gain/attenuation behaviour of faders. The FADER SHAPE section on the front panel provides two adjustments: the NORMAL/REVERSE switch (14), which inverts the fader operation (0=open channel, 10=closed channel) and the SOFT/HARD rotary knob (13) which allows fine adjustment of the fade-in characteristic between these two points, soft fade-in or hard fade-in.
All three channels can be routed to the NUO3 crossfader using the toggle switch (10). “XFA” position routes the channel to the A side of the crossfader, and “MIX” position means the channel will not be affected by the crossfader (assigned to the main MIX always).
5.2.7. Crossfader / “eternal” crossfader upgrade
If you want to extend the crossfader operation life, the NUO3 allows an upgrade to the renowned “eternal” potentiometer.
The ECLER ETERNAL Crossfader is an inductive fade technology based on a magnetic control. An extremely light aluminium screen (0,5 gr.) cuts the flux lines of a magnetic field created between two sets of coils. This electromagnetic modulation controls an assigned Voltage Controlled Amplifier that modifies the gain/attenuation of the signal. The contactless technology is combined with a custom high quality glides mechanism to offer a very smooth touch and succeed the most accurate Crossfader system! The ETERNAL concept does have obvious advantages upon other existing systems using optical technology. Unlike optoelectronic elements, the inductive concept is resistant to smoke, moisture, temperature and aging. The ETERNAL inductive crossfader has been specifically designed for performing “turntablism” techniques.
The ETERNAL Crossfader also features new “tuning” features grouped in the XFADER SHAPE section that will give the NUO3 the most accurate Crossfader adjustment:
SWITCH/FADE selector (15): depending of how sharp you want to get your “scratches”, the NUO3 allows you to set-up the crossfader performance in FADE or SWITCH. The FADE Mode will give the crossfader a progressive “roll-off” curve meanwhile the SWITCH Mode will “square” the crossfader curve in order to perform almost as a Switch for fast “scratches”. Additionally, Both curve modes can be finely tuned with the dedicated potentiometer (18).
NORMAL/REVERSE Switch (16): so-called “Hamster Switch”, which reverses the crossfader normal direction. Depending on the chosen "fader direction", you can perform “cuts” and “transforms” by moving the Crossfader in the same direction.
Electronic CUT-IN-TIME correction (17): This feature is only available if the optional “eternal” crossfader is installed. In case the standard crossfader is used, the CUT IN adjustment should be turned OFF. The “Cut-in-time” is the distance between the extreme end of the crossfader and the very first “fade-in” point. The shortest position will give you almost an instant “Cut-in-time”; to find the shortest “Cut-in-time”, the crossfader must be locked on the very end of the potentiometer in fade-out position (the PGM is fully attenuated) and the CUT-IN-TIME knob must be turned to the right until (just before) you get the sound. To lengthen the crossfader “Cut-in-time”, turn the knob to the left.
11
Both standard and “eternal” potentiometers share the same type of connection. To install the “eternal” crossfader, please follow these steps.
5.2.8. Replaceable VCA Faders and Crossfaders / “eternal” upgrade
Once any of these components has reached the end of its operating life, it can be easily replaced following these simple steps:
1. Remove the buttons and the four screws on the bottom panel.
2. Remove the two screws that hold the potentiometer to be replaced, and take it out of the mixer.
3. Disconnect the multipin connector.
4. Replace the part with an identical one or with the “eternal” crossfader.
5. Connect the multipin connector.
6. Place the fader back in the mixer and secure it with the two screws.
7. Secure the bottom cover plate with its screws and insert the buttons back in.
Always use original ECLER replacement parts.
5.2.9. MASTER Levels
The NUO3 features two main output level controls MASTER 1 (23) and MASTER 2 (22). The OUT 1 (36-37) level is controlled by the MASTER 1 level knob. The OUT 2 (38) level is controlled by the MASTER 2 level knob.
MASTER 1 and MASTER 2 are affected by the corresponding BAL (25-24) balance control knobs.
6. FURTHER CONSIDERATIONS
6.1. Ground loops
Ensure at all times that no signal sources reaching the mixing desk and no devices connected to its output have their earths interconnected; that is, earth should never reach them via two or more different paths, as this could lead to humming which could even interfere with sound reproduction quality. In order to avoid earth loops, ensure that the shielding of cables, if connected to the chassis, are never connected with each other.
6.2. Audio connections
As a general rule of thumb, make the signal connections as short as possible and use the best connectors and cable available. Cables and connectors are frequently held cheap, forgetting that a bad connection can result in a poor sound quality.
6.3. Background noise
The use of active circuitry can yield, depending on the configuration, to a significant noise level. The NUO3 has been designed for the minimum possible noise. Anyway, the noise level will always depend on the correct use and installation of the mixer. It is not the same setting up the FADER at "2" and the MASTER at "10" that the other way round; FADER at "10" and MASTER at "2". In the first case you get a poor signal to noise ratio that will be fully amplified by the master while on the second we have a good signal to noise ratio only amplified by "2". As a result, the background noise is greater in the first case than in the second one.
6.4. Cleaning
The front panel should not be cleaned with dissolvent or abrasive substances because silk-printing could be damaged. To clean it, use a soft cloth slightly wet with water and neutral liquid soap; dry it with a clean cloth. Be careful that water never gets into the unit through the holes of the front panel.

2. INTRODUCCIÓN
¡Felicidades! Por adquirir un auténtico equipo profesional ECLER. El NUO3 ha sido diseñado cuidadosamente en colaboración con prestigiosos artistas, DJs y productores, desarrollado con componentes de la más alta calidad y fabricado en nuestra planta de Barcelona bajo estrictos controles de calidad.
El NUO3 es un mezclador estéreo de tres canales con capacidad para 9 fuentes de sonido. Debido a su formato y robustez, el NUO3 está principalmente concebido para aplicaciones de mezcla profesional
(club, personal estudio...) donde se requiere un mezclador de tamaño compacto pero excelentes prestaciones.
3. INSTALACIÓN
La principal consideración a tener en cuenta en el momento de buscar la ubicación de su nuevo NUO3 debe ser la máxima comodidad de trabajo del operador, permitir una total facilidad en la realización de las conexiones de las que el mezclador va a ser punto de partida y llegada. El NUO3 está básicamente concebido como mezclador de sobremesa y su ubicación habitual será entre dos reproductores de discos compactos o de vinilo. El mezclador tiene un formato de 14.57'' (37 cm) de profundidad y 8.8'' (22,4 cm) de anchura. Mediante el kit de laterales metálicos (disponibles como opción) (Fig. 1) podrá sujetar firmemente su NUO3, ya sea directamente sobre la superficie sobre la que se apoye o sobre los laterales. Estos perfiles permiten también inclinar el mezclador.
Dada la elevada ganancia de las entradas de PHONO y de MICRÓFONO debe procurarse situar el mezclador lo más alejado posible de fuentes de ruido (variadores de tensión, motores, etc.) así como de cualquier cable de red. Por esta misma razón y bajo ninguna circunstancia debe quitarse la tapa metálica del aparato.
Ya que el consumo del NUO3 es muy bajo, éste no precisa ventilación, sin embargo debe evitarse que esté expuesto a una temperatura extrema y que la atmósfera del local en que esté emplazado sea lo más seca y limpia de polvo posible.
El NUO3 funciona con una fuente de alimentación conmutada de tipo universal permitiendo trabajar sin ningún tipo de ajuste desde 90V a 264V – 47/63Hz. Asegúrese de que el cable de red se encuentre lejos de los cables de señal para evitar zumbidos.
Para proteger al mezclador de eventuales sobrecargas en la línea de red existe un fusible de red de tipo T 500mA. En caso de que éste se fundiera se desconectaría el aparato y se sustituiría por otro de idénticas características. Si éste último se volviera a fundir, consulte con nuestro Servicio Técnico.
ATENCIÓN: EN NINGÚN CASO DEBE CORTOCIRCUITAR EL CIRCUITO DE PROTECCIÓN O PONER UN FUSIBLE DE VALOR MÁS ELEVADO.
ADVERTENCIA: La sustitución del fusible debe ser realizada por un técnico cualificado.
