THIS UNIT MUST BE EARTHED
Under no circumstances should the mains earth be disconnected from the mains lead.
The wires in the mains lead are coloured in accordance with the following code: Earth: Green and Yellow (Green/Yellow - US)
Neutral: Blue (White - US) Live (Hot): Brown (Black - US)
As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug, proceed as follows:
The wire which is coloured Green and Yellow must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E or by the earth symbol.
The wire which is coloured Blue must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter N. The wire which is coloured Brown must be connected to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter L. Ensure that these colour codings are followed carefully in the event of the plug being changed. This unit is capable of operating over a range of mains voltages as marked on the rear panel.
The internal power supply unit contains no user serviceable parts. Refer all servicing to a qualied service engineer, through the appropriate Soundcraft dealer.

WARNINGS
ADVICE FOR THOSE WHO PUSH THE BOUNDARIES
Although your new console will not output any sound until you feed it signals, it has the
capability to produce sounds which, when monitored through an amplier or headphones,
can damage hearing over time.
Please take care when working with your audio — if you are manipulating controls which you don’t understand (which we all do when we are learning), make sure your monitors are turned down. Remember that your ears are the most important tool of your trade, look after them, and they will look after you.
Most importantly — don’t be afraid to experiment to nd out how each parameter affects the sound —
this will extend your creativity and help.
NOTE: The packaging, in which your console arrived, forms part of the product and must be retained for future use.
NOTE: This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class A digital device, pursuant to Part 15 of the FCC Rules. These limits are designed to provide reasonable protection against harmful interference when the equipment is operated in a commercial environment. This equipment generates, uses and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instruction manual, may cause
harmful interference to radio communications. Operation of this equipment in a residential area is likely to cause harmful interference in which case the user will be required to correct the inter­ference at his own expense.
This Class A digital apparatus meets the requirements of the Canadian Interference-Causing Equipment Regulations.
Cet appareil numérique de la Classe A respecte toutes les exigences du Règlement sur le matériel brouilleur du Canada.

2.0: INTRODUCTION TO THIS MANUAL
Anyone with minimal audio experience should be able to operate the Soundcraft Ui Series consoles without reading too much of this manual, though we do recommend you take the time to go through it. An excellent place to start would be the feature list on the introductory page (section 1.0), the Wi-Fi and software set-up guide (3.1), and the software control guides for phone (3.2) and tablet (3.3) soft­ware.
Please note: Most of the hardware illustrations in this manual are based on the Ui16 console. Where there are differences between operation of Ui16 and Ui12, it is noted in the relevant section.

The diagram shows the audio signal path through an input channel - from physical input to bus sends (Aux, FX, Mix, and so on).
Please note: The entire signal path (except for the hardware pre and output DACs) is clip-free with innite
headroom. It means that internal clipping is not introduced even by driving the EQ/Dyn to the max.
Sufciently reducing the level on the Master Channel strip will get rid of any clipping on the output.
