BASIC SETUP

Getting Started

1.Ensure all power is turned off on your mixer. To totally ensure this, the power supply should not be connected to the unit.

2.All faders and level controls should be set at the lowest level and all channels switched off to ensure no sound is inadvertently sent through the outputs when the device is switched on. All levels can be altered to acceptable degrees after the device is turned on using the channel setup instructions.

3.Plug any necessary equipment into the device’s various outputs. This could include amplifiers and speakers, monitors, signal processors, and/or recording devices.

4.Plug the supplied power cable into the inlet on the back of the device and then into a power outlet of a suitable voltage.

5.Turn the power switch on and follow the channel setup instructions to get the most out of your mixer.

Channel Setup

1.To ensure the correct audio level of the input channel is selected, each of the level input controls of the mixer should be turned counterclockwise or down as far as they will go.

2.No input other than the one being set should have any device plugged in. This will ensure the purest signal is used when setting channels.

3.Set the level control of the channel you are setting to the 0 dB mark.

4.Ensure the channel has a signal sent to it similar to the signal that will be sent when in common use. For example, if the channel is using a microphone, then you should speak or sing at the same level the performer normally would during a performance; if a guitar is plugged into the channel, then the guitar should also be strummed as it normally would be (and so on). This ensures levels are completely accurate and avoids having to reset them later.

5.Set the gain so the Level Meter indicates the audio level is around 0 dB.

6.This channel is now ready to be used; you can stop making the audio signal.

7.You can repeat the same process for other channels.

BLUETOOTH SETUP

1.Set the "Wireless Pairing" switch to the ON position.

2.Enter your laptop, cell phone or tablet’s Bluetooth setup options to find the “Phonic.BT” Bluetooth device.

3.If requested, the password for the CELEUS 600’s Bluetooth function is 0000. A lot of modern smartphones will enter this as the default password.

4.Audio signals received through the Bluetooth interface will be routed to channel 9/10 on the mixer.

5.To reset the connection, turn your laptop, cell phone or tablet’s Bluetooth connection off and then on again.

6.When using cell phones and tablets, it may be an idea to turn “Airplane Mode” or “Flight Mode” on to stop phone calls or push notifications from interrupting your audio.

Note: Not all modern Bluetooth-enabled devices allow for use of external audio playback. In the case of laptops in particular, Bluetooth may be used for data transmission only - depending on the model. This is a limitation of these devices and you will not be able to use the CELEUS 600’s Bluetooth function with these devices.

4.Select "Start voice recording" to begin recording immediately.

The unit will save an audio file to the selected storage destination.

5.Push the PLAY button to pause recording. Pushing the PLAY button again will resume recording from the position at which it was paused.

6.Press the STOP/MENU button at any time to stop the recording. The device will then ask if you wish to save your recording. Select "Yes" or "No".

7.Press the STOP/MENU button to exit.

Note: As the quality of the flash drive can affect recording performance,

Phonic recommends using Sandisk brand drives to help ensure stable recording performance.

USB MODULE STORAGE

The CELEUS USB player module features approximately 70MB of onboard storage to use for playback. That may sound small but that could mean 60 minutes or so of music at 128 Kbps, or a few hours of speech at 40 Kbps.

To upload files to the onboard storage, you will need a USB-A to USB-A cable. Connect the USB connector on the face of the

CELEUS to your computer and it will be recognized as a USB storage device. Simply copy your files to the CELEUS 600.

Files on onboard storage will only be available when a USB flash drive is not connected.

AUDIO INTERFACE

By simply connecting the USB cable provided along with your

CELEUS to the device and your personal computer or laptop, you are able to send DVD quality (16-bit stereo, with a 48 kHz sampling rate) signal to and from your mixer. By doing this, you are actually turning your CELEUS 600 into a highly useful plug’n’play soundcard for your computer.

The USB sends an audio stream of the Main Left and Right (record out) signal of your mixer to the computer. You can use almost any dedicated Digital Audio Workstation (DAW) software to record the signal from the CELEUS mixer. You can also set the mixer as your default audio device.

The USB interface also returns the audio signal from your computer back to the 2T Returns, the signal of which is controlled by the 2T

/ USB Return control. If there are input signals from both the USB interface and the 2T Return, the two signals are combined and controlled simultaneously by the 2T return control.

Windows

1.Turn on both the CELEUS and the computer.

2.Connect the CELEUS mixer to the computer via the provided USB cable.

3.Let Windows find the device and install an appropriate driver.

4.Enter the Control Panel and select Sounds and Audio Devices.

5.When here, go to the Audio tab and select the “USB Audio Codec” as your default sound recording and playback device.

6.Depending whether you have Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8 or 10, this may differ slightly, but the setting can always be found within the Control Panel’s audio menu.

7.If you don’t want to use the CELEUS as your default audio device, you can simply enter your DAW or other audio program and select it as your default device in the program only.

8.Be sure to set your minimum buffer settings to 64 samples as to avoid clicks and pops.

Mac

1.Turn both the CELEUS and the computer on.

2.Connect the CELEUS mixer to the computer via the provided

USB cable.

3.Enter the AUDIO MIDI SETUP menu.

4.Select the “USBAudio Codec” as your input and output device.

5.The CELEUS is now your default audio device.

6.Alternatively, enter your DAW software (or other relevant audio program) and select the “USB Audio Codec” in the device preferences.

7.Be sure to set your minimum buffer settings to 64 samples as to avoid clicks and pops.

MAKING CONNECTIONS

1

Front Panel

 

1. XLR Jacks

These jacks accept XLR inputs for balanced signals. They can be used in conjunction

with microphones – such as professional condenser, dynamic or ribbon microphones

– with standard XLR male connectors. With low noise preamplifiers, these inputs serve for crystal clear sound replication.

Note: When using an unbalanced microphone, please ensure phantom power is switched off. However, when using condenser microphones the phantom power should be activated.

2. Stereo Channel Inputs

The CELEUS 600 features 4 stereo input channels (channels

5 through to 12), the inputs of which differ slightly to the mono channels. Each channel includes two ¼"TRS phone jacks ideal for use with keyboards, drum machines and electric guitars.

If you wish to use a mono device on a stereo return input, simply plug the device’s ¼” phone jack into the left (mono) stereo input and leave the right input bare. The signal will be duplicated to the right due to the miracle of 'jack normalizing'.

In addition to the ¼" TRS phone jacks, channels 5/6 and 7/8 include XLR inputs (as described in point 1 above). These can be used instead of the stereo TRS input connectors.

3. Stereo AUX Return

The 1/4” TRS AUX Return inputs are for the return of audio to the CELEUS mixer, processed by an external signal processor. If really needed, they can also be used as additional inputs.The feed from these inputs can be adjusted using the AUX Return controls on the face of the mixer.

Rear Panel

4. Control Room Outputs

These two 1/4” phone jack outputs are fed from the Control Room mix as controlled by the Control Room level control. This output has extensive use, as it can be used to feed the signal from the mixer to an active monitor, for the monitoring of the audio signal from within a booth, among many other possible uses.

5. 2T Return (L and R)

These inputs accommodate RCA cables from such devices as tape, CD and MP3 players. The line from this feed is directed to the Tape In mix and controlled by the 2T / USB RTN level control.

6. Record Out (L and R)

As with the Tape In ports, these outputs will accommodate RCA cables, able to be fed to a variety of recording devices. This may include cassette recorders or even laptop computers. Phonic suggests the use of a y-cable. These cables include two RCA connectors on one end and a single 1/8" mini-stereo jack on the other end.

7. AUX Sends

These 1/4" TS phone jack is the final output of the AUX SEND 1 and 2 send mixes, as controlled by the individual AUX 1 and 2 rotary controls found on each channel. These can be used to feed any number of external signal processors. The signal can then be returned to the CELEUS 600 through the AUX Returns.

8. Headphones Jack

This stereo output port is suited for use with headphones, allowing monitoring of the mix. The audio level of this output is controlled using the Phones/Control Room control on the front panel.

9. Foot Switch Jack

This port is for the inclusion of a non-latching foot switch, used to remotely switch the built-in Digital Effect processor between the on and standby modes.

10. Group Out

These 1/4” phone jacks output the final feed from the Group 1 and

2 faders on the main mixer. These outputs can be used to feed a wide range of devices, such as mixers, signal processors, and even to connect an amplifier and speakers, to be used along with the main speakers for a more rounded audio experience.

11. USB Connector

This USB-B connection is for the USB computer interface. Use the included USB cable to connect this to your computer's USB port.

12. XLR Output Connectors

These balanced XLR connections will send the final stereo line level signal sent from the main mix. These outputs can be connected to an amplifier for sending the signal out to speakers, or directly to active speakers.

13. ¼” Main Out

These two ¼” TRS phone jacks will output the final stereo line level signal sent from the main mix. The primary purpose of these jacks is to send the main output to external devices, which may include power amplifiers (and in-turn, a pair of speakers), other mixers, as well as a wide range of other possible signal processors (equalizers, crossovers, etcetera).

14. AC Power Connector

This port is for the addition of a power cable, allowing power to be supplied to the mixer. Please use the power cable that is included with this mixer only.

CONTROLS AND SETTINGS

15. Power Switch

This switch is used to turn the mixer on and off. Ensure you turn all level controls down before activating. This ensures no audio is inadvertently sent through your system.

16. Phantom Power Switch

When this switch is in the on position, it activates +48V of phantom power for all microphone inputs, allowing condenser microphones (well, the ones that don’t use batteries) to be used on these channels. Activating Phantom Power will be accompanied by an illuminated LED on the front panel. Before turning Phantom Power on, turn all level controls to a minimum to avoid the possibility of a ghastly popping sound from the speakers.

Note: Phantom Power should be used in conjunction with balanced microphones.WhenPhantomPowerisengaged,singleended(unbalanced) microphones and instruments should not be used on the Mic inputs.

Phantom Power will not cause damage to most dynamic microphones, however if unsure, the microphone’s user manual should be consulted.

Channel Controls

17. Gain Control

This controls the sensitivity of the input signal of the Line/

Microphone input of mono channels. The gain should be adjusted to a level that allows the maximum use of the audio, while still maintaining the quality of the feed. This can be accomplished by adjusting it to a level that will allow the peak indicator occasionally illuminate.

18. Low Cult Filter (75 Hz)

This button will activate a high-pass filter that reduces all frequencies below 75 Hz at 18 dB per Octave, helping to remove any unwanted ground noise or stage rumble.

19. Compressor Control and Indicator

This controls the onboard compressor function on mono channels.

Turning this control up towards the 12 o’clock position will adjust the threshold and ratio of the compressor at varying degrees.

Once you reach the 12 o’clock position, the control will then adjust the compression settings along with an onboard expander (or, in other words, a compander). The LED that accompanies this control will light up when the compressor is triggered.
