The following precautions should be considered when operating the equipment. When setting the equipment ensure that :
– air is allowed to circulate freely around the equipment – the equipment is on a vibration free surface – the equipment will not be exposed to interference from an external
source
– the equipment will not be exposed to excessive heat, cold, moisture
or dust – the equipment will not be exposed to direct sunlight – the equipment will not be exposed to electrostatic discharges
¡In addition, never place heavy objects on the equipment. ¡If a foreign body or water does enter the equipment, contact your
nearest dealer or service center. ¡Do not pull out the plug by pulling on the mains lead. Hold the plug.
FEATURES
BUILT-IN MIXER
The PAC750/PAC770 incorporate a built-in mixer that includes inputs and control for the built-in Tape and CD players, the stereo Aux input, and the 4 mono Mic/Line inputs. The Aux input allows an unbalanced stereo line level source to be connected. The 4 mono Mic/Line inputs allow either a microphone (either high or low sensitivity) or line input to be connected. EQ and pan controls are provided on those inputs to allow for feedback elimination and mixer customization.
AUTO DUCKING
The PAC750/PAC770 incorporate an Auto Ducking feature that allows the Mic/Line inputs to work in conjunction with the Tape, CD, and Aux inputs. With the Auto Ducking feature set to -15dB, everything works as normal except for when any of the Mic/Line inputs has an active signal. When this occurs, the Tape, CD, and Aux inputs drop down in level by
-15dB. When Auto Ducking is set to -, the Tape, CD, and Aux inputs are dropped out completely when the Mic/Line inputs are active.
VOICE REDUCTION
The Tape, CD, and Aux inputs to the mixer contain a Voice Reduction circuit that can effectively reduce the vocal tracks in most music. Please be aware that results vary according to the music and the way it was recorded.
AMPLIFIER (PAC770)
The PAC770 contains a powerfull amplifier that allows versatile speaker connection. The 1/4" connectors are very convenient for portable use while the binding posts allow connection of single-ended banana plugs or a secure bare wire connection.
TEMPO CONTROL
The PAC750/PAC770 CD player allows for the adjustment of the playing speed (Tempo) from -50% to +50%. This feature is similar to Pitch control except that the Key (musical pitch) of the CD output does not change when the Tempo is adjusted.
KEY CONTROL
The PAC750/PAC770 CD player allows for the adjustment of the Key (frequency/musical pitch) from -1 octave to +1 octave during playback. This feature allows the music to be adjusted in order to match correctly to an instrument or a voice.
A-B LOOP
The PAC750/PAC770 allows two points within the CD to be selected and the audio within these points will be repeated until a stop command is issued.
SINGLE TRACK PLAY
The PAC750/PAC770 can be set for the CD player to play the selected track and then stop and cue up the next track.
AUTO CUE
This feature allows the CD player to advance to the beginning of the audio within the track rather than start from the track start flag. This feature helps to minimize the silence at the beginning of a CD track.
PITCH CONTROL
The PAC750/PAC770 tape player allows for adjustment of the playback pitch (key + tempo) from -12% to +12%. The feature is particularly useful to tune a tape to accompanying instruments and choirs.
QUICK OPTICAL AUTOREVERSE
In addition to the normal tension reversing circuitry the PAC750/PAC770 tape transport also employs optically sensing quick autoreverse cir­cuitry. This circuitry reacts to the clear areas of the tape, usually the leader tape, and when detected will reverse the direction of the tape transport. This process minimizes the lose of signal being recorded or played back. This reverse process applies to all tape playback and recording modes, including autoreverse and continuous mode.
DOLBY NR SYSTEMS
The Dolby Noise Reduction systems compress and amplifies the input signal during recording in order to raise the signal-to-noise ratio on the tape. During playback, these signals are expanded and attenuated by the same amount in order to regain the original dynamic range of the music. An additional result of this expansion and attenuation is that the noise floor of the recording is reduced significantly. Dolby B typically reduces noise by 10dB and Dolby C typically reduces noise by 20 dB.
DOLBY HX PRO HEADROOM EXTENSION
The Dolby HX PRO system monitors the total amount of effective bias during recording and instantaneously compensates for any excess bias by reducing the tape deck’s bias signal level accordingly. The system operates independently on each channel. HX Pro is unlike a noise reduction system because it functions only during recording and no decoding is required. Therefore a tape recorded with the HX Pro system can be played back on any other cassette deck while retaining the benefits of HX Pro.
ONE TOUCH DUBBING
The PAC750/PAC770 allows dubbing of the CD to the tape with one button start control. This feature allows manual or automatic record level control.
RC5 REMOTE CONTROL COMPATIBILITY
The PAC750/PAC770 comes equipped with an RC5 remote in and out port. Through the use of various remote control options, major functions of the unit can be operated via wired or wireless remote control.

REAR PANEL CONNECTIONS
A AUX INPUT JACKS
These jacks should be connected to the LINE OUTPUT of your source.
B LINE OUTPUT (CD, TAPE, PRE-AMP(MIX)) JACKS
These jacks can be connected to the appropriate LINE INPUT of a power amp, PA or monitoring system.
C EFFECT INPUT & OUTPUT JACKS
These jacks are used to connect to a graphic equalizer or an effects processor. When such a device is connected, set the EFFECT switch to the ON position. When such a device is not connected, set the EFFECT switch to the OFF position.
¡If the switch is left ON without anything connected, no audio will be
output through the pre-out or the speakers.
D MPX FILTER SWITCH
When recording FM broadcasts, set this switch to the ON position to eliminate the FM carrier signal.
E REMOTE CONTROL JACKS
These jacks are used with an infrared or wired remote control to provide remote operation of the PAC750/PAC770. The signal format of this interface is Philips RC5.
¡These jacks can be serially linked to provide serial remote control
operation of multiple RC5 equipped products as well.
F MONO BRIDGE SWITCH (PAC770)
¡This switch is used to select between mono bridge and stereo
amplified output mode. When this switch is in the OFF position, the unit functions as a stereo power amp. When this switch is in the ON position, the unit functions as a monaural amp. (For details on how to connect the speakers, refer to page 52.)
¡This switch only effects the binding post speaker outputs and not the
1/4” speaker outputs.
¡Make sure this switch is OFF when the 1/4” speaker outputs are
used.
G, K AMPLIFIED SPEAKER OUTPUTS (PAC770)
These jacks are used to connect to passive (non-powered) speakers. When using a speaker system in stereo mode with left and right channels, connect the right channel speaker to the output terminal G labeled “R,” and the left channel speaker to the output terminal G labeled “L”. In stereo mode, use a speaker system with an impedance of 4 to 16 ohms. When using a single (mono) speaker system, set the MONO BRIDGE switch to “ON”. Connect the speaker to the red terminals for both the “L” and “R” speaker terminals G. Do not use the black terminals. In
mono mode, use a speaker system with an impedance of 8 to 16 ohms.
¡MONO BRIDGE mode is only available on the binding post speaker
outputs and not the 1/4” speaker outputs.
H FUSE Holder
CAUTION : Disconnect AC power before removing.
This receptacle holds a specific fuse that is used to prevent overload and shorting.
I AC TERMINAL
Connect the AC cord that is provided with the unit to this terminal.
J SPEAKER SELECT SWITCH (PAC770)
This switch is used to select between the two sets of speaker terminals (K and G).
¡Speaker terminals K and G cannot both be used simultaneously. ¡Speaker terminal K does not permit mono bridge connection.
However, make sure the MONO BRIDGE switch is in the OFF position.
L EQ & PAN CONTROLS
The recessed EQ controls allow the tone of each MIC/LINE input to be adjusted to obtain optimum sound quality. Turning each control to the right boosts the corresponding frequency range and to the left attenuates it.
LOW : Controls the tone of the lower frequencies. (100Hz) HIGH : Controls the tone of the higher frequencies. (15kHz)
The recessed PAN control adjusts the MIC/LINE input to the desired position (L, R or L + R) in the mixing bus. When the knob is at the center position, the MIC/LINE signal is centered between the left and right. To position the output on the left side, turn the knob towards “L”. To position the output on the right side, turn the knob towards “R”.
M MIC/LINE INPUT JACKS
Each set of these inputs is designed to accept either a microphone (MIC) or line (LINE) level signal. All of the input jacks are balanced. For a microphone level signal, set the MIC LINE switch to the MIC position. For all MIC inputs, set the SENSITIVITY to either HIGH or LOW, according to the sensitivity of the microphone. If a microphone that requires phantom power is used with the XLR input, set the PHANTOM switch to the “ON” position. For a line level input, set the MIC LINE switch to the LINE position.
¡The XLR input and the 1/4” input cannot be used at the same time.
N SYSTEM OUTPUT JACKS (PAC750)
The system output jacks are the final output of the mixer and can be used when connecting the PAC750 to a power amp, PA, or monitoring system. The RCA jacks are unbalanced outputs. The XLR jacks are balanced outputs.
