Auto- TUNE

Auto-TUNE

MIC/LINE INPUT (CH.1-8)

is combination input jack accepts a ¼” or XLR balanced plug. e XLR balanced input is optimized for a microphone or other low impedance source. e ¼” input is a TRS balanced type, and also accepts ordinary TS guitar cables.

DIRECT OUT

is impedance-balanced TRS output signal is taken aer the mic preamp, hi pass lter, and compressor, but before the EQ stage.

AUTO-TUNE ACTIVATION BUTTON AND LED (PV10AT only)

Pressing this button activates the PV10AT's onboard AUTO-TUNE feature. e button illuminates when in AUTO-TUNE mode (SEE Eects Select {50} and the following page).

GAIN

e Input Gain control is used to establish proper gain structure in the channel. For best results, use the Solo system (19) to monitor the channel while you set the gain. e goal is maximum gain without distortion. Both the main LED meters (during Solo) and the channel’s Signal/Clip indicator (16,17) can be used for adjusting gain. If the clip LED (16) comes on and remains lit, try reducing the gain.

150 Hz HI PASS FILTER

e hi pass lter has a corner frequency of 150 Hz. When engaged‚ it can improve clarity by removing low frequencies that make a mix sound muddy. is feature is especially useful when playing outside on a windy day or on a hollow-sounding‚ noisy stage. ese kinds of ambient noises can rob your sound system of power. Engaging this switch will remove those frequencies from the system and restore power where needed.

COMPRESSION CONTROL (Channels 1 and 2 only)

Adjusting this knob clockwise lowers the threshold of the compressor, thereby increasing the amount of compression. e compressor ratio is in the 4:1 range, varying with signal levels and the amount of compression. is is useful for controlling peak levels from live sources, and has been designed to subtly tame the levels of live vocals without noticeable artifacts. e compressor is aer the gain control (5) and the hi pass lter (4), but before the direct out (2), so it can be patched to external equipment.

Compressor LED

is LED illuminates when the compressor is actively compressing a signal.

Hi EQ

is active tone control (shelving type: ±15 dB) varies the level of the high frequency range.

MID-MORPH EQ (CH. 1-7)

Where most mid-range controls work at just one frequency, the Mid-Morph works at two. When turned counterclockwise, it cuts at 250Hz to reduce frequencies that muddy the sound. When turned clockwise, it boosts at 4kHz to add intelligibility to vocals. Either way, improved vocal or instrument denition can be achieved.

Low EQ

is active tone control (shelving type: ±15 dB) varies the level of the low frequency range. Caution: Excessive low frequency boost causes greater power consumption and increases the possibility of speaker damage.

EQ BYPASS

Engaging this button bypasses the equalization of the channel, allowing you to easily hear the eect of the EQ settings.

AUX SEND

is control adjusts the level of the channel signal sent to the Aux output. e signal is taken before the channel level (18) but aer the channel EQ, meaning that changes to the EQ settings will aect the aux mix, but changes to the channel level control won't. Typical use for the Aux bus is to feed stage monitors, when used in a live performance, or to feed headphone ampliers in a recording situation.

EFX SEND

is control adjusts the level of the channel signal added to the eects mix. e signal is sent to the internal eects processor. Turning the knob to the le (min) will turn o eects on the associated channel, while turning the knob to the right will increase the amount of the selected eect. e eects send signal is taken aer the channel level (18) so that adjustments made to the fader will also aect the send level.

PAN CONTROL

is knob controls the placement of the signal in the stereo eld. When rotated completely counterclockwise‚ the signal is present only on the le channel; when rotated completely clockwise‚ only in the right channel. is control functions as a balance control to adjust the relative level of the le and right signals on stereo channels 5/6 and 7/8. (Note 1/4" inputs on ch 5-6 and 9-10 are mono unless both are connected, then they switch to stereo)

MUTE SWITCH

Pressing this switch will silence the channel signal going to the main mix, aux send, and eects. e mute switch will not aect the signal sent to the solo system.

CLIP/MUTE LED

is LED normally indicates that the channel signal level is near clipping (distortion), but it also lights when mute is engaged. e clip indicator circuit monitors the signal aer the gain control, aer the EQ, and aer the main level; because clipping can be caused by high settings of any of these controls. It illuminates at +15 dBu with a static signal (test tone), and corresponds to audible clipping with a highly dynamic signal (i.e. piano). When lit, it warns that the gain or EQ boost should be reduced. When it lights, roughly 5 dB of headroom remains. An optimized setting of input gain + EQ will result in this LED ashing briey on the loudest peaks.

SIGNAL LED

e signal LED lights when the channel level reaches approximately -20 dBu. is not only indicates which channels are active, but also serves as a mini level meter. Because its illumination varies with the signal source, it is useful in identifying which channel is carrying a particular source.

CHANNEL LEVEL CONTROL

is is the channel's output control, which sets the signal level sent to the le and right mix and the eects send control. e gain is 0 dB (unity gain) when set to the detent at mid-rotation (12:00). 10 dB of boost is available at the max gain setting. Normal operation is to start with this knob at the detent, and set the input gain and EQ with the source playing such that normal levels are seen at the signal /clip LED's and the

main meter array. As additional sources are added, it is normal to turn this knob down slightly to prevent overdriving the main mix bus.

SOLO SWITCH AND LED

When the Solo switch is engaged, the yellow LED lights, as does the yellow Solo LED under the main L/R meter array in the master section, indicating that the Solo system is now active. e Solo system is a separate mix bus that routes the soloed channel(s) at unity gain to the level meters for precise input level setting, and to the control room monitor and headphone outputs for critical listening to the selected source(s). When the Solo system is active, the complete mix will no longer be heard through the control room or headphones; only the soloed channel(s).

PV10AT Front Panel (channel 4)

MIC/LINE INPUT (CHANNEL 4 ONLY)

is input is the same as channels 1-3 unless Guitar Shape is pressed. When ELECTRIC GUITAR PRE-SHAPE is on, the 1/4" input changes to a high impedance (1 MegΩ), like a 12AX7 vacuum tube guitar amplier input.

Electric Guitar Pre-Shape

Engaging this button optimizes the on board equalization for electric guitar.

3.5mm STEREO INPUT

e 3.5mm input to channel 5/6 accepts a stereo input from the output of an MP3 player, CD player, tape deck or other similar device. is input is optimized for portable handheld devices and therefore has very high sensitivity.

STEREO INPUTS

Channels 5 and 6 also feature 1/4" inputs. If only one jack is used, it behaves as a mono source with a pan control. When both jacks are connected, these connections serve as a stereo source with a balance control; 5 is Le and 6 is Right.

USB MEDIA JACK

A-type USB connector that a removable data storage device can be connected to playback music

USB PLAYBACK:

First, slide the input selection switch (27) to the USB A position. e bottom of the LCD display will say “Insert USB drive”. Insert your USB drive into the USB Media Jack (24) at the top of channel 7/8. e Media Player will now enter "Folder Navigation Mode". In this mode, you can scroll through a list of all folders on the USB drive. Once you select a folder, the Media Player will enter "Song Navigation Mode" which allows you to scroll through a list of all songs contained in the selected folder. If there are no songs in the

selected folder, the LCD will display "No Songs". To return to Folder Navigation Mode, scroll to the very beginning of the list and select the <FOLDERS> option. Once a song is nished playing, the Media Player will automatically start playing the next song. Once the Media Player reaches the last song, it will automatically loop back to the beginning of the list.

BLUETOOTH PAIRING BUTTON AND LED

e Bluetooth Pairing Button is used to turn on/o the Bluetooth. Once turned on, the Bluetooth will automatically enter pairing mode. You can pair any Bluetooth-enabled device with the mixer using the PIN 7878. e blue “Bluetooth Active LED” indicates the status of the Bluetooth connection. If the LED is o, the Bluetooth module is powered o. If the LED is slowly ashing, the PV mixer is not paired with any device, but is available for connection. When the LED is lit solid, the source device is properly paired to the mixer and ready to play. To clear the paired device memory, make sure Bluetooth is on and press and hold the Bluetooth Pairing Button for 5 seconds. e PV mixer will ask if you would like to clear the Bluetooth memory. Select "Y" using the Media Select knob to clear the memory. e PV mixer will go through the process of clearing the memory, which should take approximately 15 seconds.

RCA MEDIA INPUTS

e RCA inputs to channel 5/6 accept a stereo source such as an MP3 player, CD player, tape deck or other similar device. is input is optimized for portable handheld devices and therefore has very high sensitivity.

DIGITAL SOURCE SELECTOR

is switch selects between USB A (24), USB B (68), and the internal Bluetooth receiver.
