Installation; Connections; Power; Inputs - Art SGX-2000 User Manual

your power amp is stereo, connect the left and right inputs of the amp to the
Left and Right Main Output jacks. Turn the SGX-2000 on first then turn on your
power amp. Adjust the level with the Stereo Master Level control.

INSTALLATION

The SGX 2000 may be used in a variety of setups including: direct into a power or
guitar amplifier, mixing consoles with effects send and return facilities, in the
effects loop of an amplifier, or mixer and in the tape loop of a home receiver.
Self contained in an all steel double high 19" rack mount case, the SGX 2000 is
designed for continuous professional use. For touring rack applications, care
should be taken to support the units rear if the rack might be subjected to
mechanical shock.
NOTE: The front panel may bend if no rear support is provided. Mounting location
is not critical, but for greater reliability we recommend that you not place the
unit on top of power amps, tube equipment, or other sources of heat.

CONNECTIONS

All audio connections to the SGX 2000 are made at the rear of the unit via
professional 1/4" mono phone jacks or XLR connectors. The MIDI connections are
accomplished via five pin "DIN" jacks on the rear panel. A 2.1mm female connector
is the intended plug to access the 9 volt DC output.

POWER

This device is AC powered via a standard 3 conductor grounded power cable. Plug
into any standard AC recepticle. We recommend the use of a surge protector to
decrease the chance of equipment damage due to voltage surges or spikes on the
line. For your own safety as well as the safety of others, do not remove the
ground pin of the cable. Refer to the rear panel or the specifications for proper
operating voltages.

INPUTS:

There are a two inputs available for use on the SGX 2000.
INSTRUMENT INPUT
An Instrument input is located on the front panel. Plug a guitar directly into
the jack with a standard 1/4" cable.
LINE INPUT
Line inputs are located on the rear panel. If you are using a mono source to the
rear panel Line inputs, use the Left (Mono) jack. True stereo processing is
accomplished by using both inputs in a left/right application. Use the Line input
for sending "hotter" signals to the SGX 2000.

OUTPUTS:

Four different outputs are available for use.
1/4" OUTPUTS
Use the 1/4" Instrument Output to send your signal to a guitar amp. There are two
line level outputs. Use the 1/4" mono Line Out jacks to send your final signal
to amplifiers, mixers, or recorders. The Stereo Master Output control sets your
final level present at these jacks.
