This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy and, if not installed and used in accordance with the instructions, may cause harmful interference to radio communications. However, there is no

guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation. If this equipment does cause harmful interference to radio or television reception, which can be determined by turning the equipment off and on, the user is encouraged to try to correct the interference by one or more of the following measures:

Reorient or relocate the receiving antenna.

Increase the separation between the equipment and the receiver.

Connect the equipment into an outlet on a circuit different from that to which the receiver is connected.

Consult the dealer or an experienced radio/TV technician for help.

CAUTION: Changes or modifications to this device not expressly approved by LOUD Technologies Inc. could void the user's authority to operate the equipment under FCC rules.

21.This apparatus does not exceed the Class A/Class B (whichever is applicable) limits for radio noise emissions from digital apparatus as set out in the radio interference regulations of the Canadian Department of Communications.

ATTENTION Le présent appareil numérique n’émet pas de bruits radioélectriques dépassant las limites applicables aux appareils numériques de class A/de class B (selon le cas) prescrites dans le réglement sur le brouillage radioélectrique édicté par les ministere des communications du Canada.

22.Exposure to extremely high noise levels may cause permanent hearing loss. Individuals vary considerably in susceptibility to noise-induced hearing loss, but nearly everyone will lose some hearing if exposed to sufficiently intense noise for a period of time. The U.S. Government’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has specifi ed the permissible noise level exposures shown in the following chart. According to OSHA, any exposure in excess of these permissible limits could result in some hearing loss. To ensure against potentially dangerous exposure to high sound pressure levels, it is recommended that all persons exposed to equipment capable of producing high sound pressure levels use hearing protectors while the equipment is in operation. Ear plugs or protectors in the ear canals or over the ears must be worn when operating the equipment in order to prevent permanent hearing loss if exposure is in excess of the limits set forth here:

Read This Page!

You probably want to try out your new mixer right away. Before you do, please read the safety instructions on page 2, then read this page, and the rest later.

Zero the Mixer

1.Turn down all knobs except the channel EQ and pan knobs, and set all the faders fully down.

2.Set all channel EQ knobs, pan knobs, and the graphic EQ sliders at their center detent.

3.Set all buttons to the "out" position.

4.Whistle a popular show tune.

Connections

If you already know how you want to connect the mixer, go ahead and connect the inputs and outputs the way you want them. If you just want to get sound through the mixer, follow these steps:

1.Plug signal sources into the mixer, such as:

Microphones plugged into the mic inputs. Engage phantom power if your mics need it. Check the mic's user manual to be sure.

Line-level sources such as keyboards, drum machines, or CD players plugged into the line-level inputs.

A guitar plugged into channel 1, with the line/hi-z switch pressed in.

2.Connect cords from the main outs to your powered speakers or amplifier.

3.Plug in the mixer’s power cord to a live AC outlet and turn on the mixer.

4.If you have powered speakers, turn them on. Otherwise, hook up your passive speakers to your amp with speaker cables, and turn it on.

Adjust your powered speaker or amplifier level controls to however the manufacturer recommends. (This is usually all the way up.)

Set the Gain

1.Play something into an input. This could be an instrument, you singing or speaking, or a line level source such as a keyboard or CD player. Be sure that the volume of the input is the same as it would be during normal use, or you may have to readjust the gain in the middle of a set. You can listen with headphones if you carefully turn up the channel fader and headphones level a little.

2.For mono channels, adjust the gain control so the level set LED just comes on occasionally during the loudest parts of your performance. The mono channel gain affects the mic and the line inputs. The hybrid channel gain affects the mic input only, not the stereo line inputs.

The stereo channel gain adjusts the stereo line inputs. Adjust as desired, and check the OL LED does not come on during the loudest passages.

3.Repeat steps 1 to 2 for your other channels.

Instant Mixing

1.To get sound out of the speakers and into a waiting world, turn up the channel’s fader to the U (unity gain) position, and slowly bring up the main fader to a comfortable listening level.

2.Sing and play. You’re a star! Bring in the other channels, and adjust their faders to make a nice mix and generally have fun.

USB

The USB connection allows you to play 2 channels of audio from your computer, and to record the main mix to your computer. See Appendix D on page 32 for details of getting started with the USB.

Notes

For optimum sonic performance, the channel faders and main fader should be set near the “U” (unity gain) markings.

Turn down all faders before making connections to and from your ProFX mixer.

When you shut down your system, turn off your amplifiers or powered speakers first. When powering up, turn them on last. This will prevent the possibility of turn-on and turn-off thumps heard in your speakers.

Save the shipping box! You may need it someday.

Please write your serial number here for future reference (i.e., insurance claims, tech support, return authorization, make dad proud, etc.)

ProFX12

Introduction

Thank you for choosing a Mackie professional ProFX

 

 

mixer. It is equipped with our rather lovely microphone

 

preamps, an internal FX processor, and a USB port for

and

playing and recording 2 channels of audio using a com-

puter. The ProFX8 has 8 channels and the ProFX12 has

12 channels. Apart from this difference, the mixers are

identical and this manual covers both models.

ProFX8

At Mackie, we know what it takes to be roadworthy.

 

 

After all, our mixers have traveled all over the world,

 

often under the worst of conditions, and we’ve applied

 

what we’ve learned to the mechanical design of our

 

ProFX mixers.

 

Reliability is paramount to sound reinforcement.

 

That’s why our engineers have subjected our mixers to

 

the most rigorous and fiendish tests imaginable to fine-

 

tune the design, and extend its limits beyond those of

 

ordinary mixers.

SRM450v2 Powered Speakers

This diagram shows a guitar connected directly to channel 1 (with the hi-z switch pressed in), microphones attached to channels 2, 3, and 4, guitar effects processors connected to the left line-level input of channel 5/6, and 7/8, a keyboard attached to channel 9/10's line-level inputs, and a drum machine connected to channel 11/12. An iPod docking station is attached to the stereo tape inputs. An effects processor receives a mono input from the FX send, and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo return inputs.

Mackie SRM450v2 powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output. Two of these speakers are also set up as stage monitors, and connect to the mixer's monitor output via a graphic EQ. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix that is independent of the main mix. Use the external graphic EQ to adjust the stage monitor EQ as desired. Headphones are used for monitoring, and a footswitch allows you to mute/unmute the internal effects as desired.

A laptop connects to the USB port, and allows the 2-channel main mix of the performance to be recorded using Tracktion software. Two channels of audio can also play from your computer to the main mix.

This diagram shows various microphones attached to channels 1 to 4, a guitar mic on channel 5/6, a guitar effects processor connected to the left line-level input of channel 7/8, and a keyboard attached to channel 9/10's line-level inputs. An iPod docking station is attached to the stereo tape inputs. An effects processor receives a mono input from the FX send, and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo return inputs. An assistive listening system is connected to the line-level main output. Dual compressors are connected to the inserts of channels 1 to 4, allowing vocal compression.

Mackie SR1521z powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output, via a compressor/ limiter. Two SRM450v2 powered speakers are set up as stage monitors, and connect to the mixer's monitor output via a graphic EQ. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix that is independent of the main mix. Use the external graphic EQ to adjust the stage monitor EQ as desired.

SR1530z Powered Speakers

This diagram shows two microphones attached to channels 1 and 2, a CD player connected to the linelevel inputs of channel 3/4, a CD turntable connected to the line-level inputs of channel 7/8. An iPod docking station is attached to the stereo tape inputs. An effects processor receives a mono input from the FX send, and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo return inputs. A reverb and compressor are connected to the insert of channel 1 allowing vocal compression and a touch of reverb.

Mackie SR1530z powered speakers are connected to the left and right main output. Two SRM450v2 powered speakers are set up as stage monitors, and connect to the mixer's monitor output. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix that is independent of the main mix. Switch the internal graphic EQ to adjust the stage monitor EQ if desired. Headphones are used for monitoring.

A laptop connects to the USB port, and allows 2-channel output of DJ software to play in your main mix. It also can be used to record your set on the computer for posterity.

This diagram shows microphones attached to channels 1 to 4, and a CD+G player connected to the line-level inputs of channel 7/8. An effects processor receives a mono input from the FX send, and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo return inputs. A dual compressor is connected to the insert of channel 1, and 2, allowing vocal compression.

Mackie SRM450v2 powered speakers and SWA1501 powered subwoofers are connected to the left and right main output. Two SRM450v2 powered speakers are set up as stage monitors, and connect to the mixer's monitor output. The aux mon controls of each channel allow you to create a stage monitor mix that is independent of the main mix. Headphones are used for monitoring.

A laptop running Karaoke software connects to the USB port, and allows a 2-channel output to play in the main mix.

The CD+G player allows karaoke text and graphics to be displayed on your TV monitor.

MR5 Powered Reference Monitors

Manual Owner’s

This diagram shows microphones attached to channel 1 and 2 mic inputs, a keyboard workstation attached to channel 3/4's line-level inputs, and a CD turntable connected to channel 5/6's line-level inputs. An effects/sampler receives a mono input from the FX send, and its stereo outputs connect to the stereo return inputs.

Mackie MR5 powered reference monitors are connected to the left and right main output, for careful and accurate monitoring of your work.

A desktop computer connects to the USB port, and allows the 2-channel main mix to be recorded and 2 channels played back using Tracktion software.
