1 Introduction

Because of their comprehensive set of integrated fea-
tures – like equalizer and effects units – the Compact
Mixing Systems CMS 1000-3, CMS 1600-3 and
CMS 2200-3 are professional mixers offering an opti-
mized all-in-one solution for basically any application. DY-
NACORD CMS consoles are quickly set up. Complicated
rack configuration and interference-prone wiring of sev-
eral single components cease to apply.
The mixer's ergonomic console shape and clearly structu-
red controls provide perfect overview for instant access
at all times. Also during the transport you will quickly
learn to appreciate the CMS's superiority: recessed hand-
les on the sides, compact dimensions and low weight,
plus the sturdy cover (optional) that protects the cont-
rols from being damaged. However, if you would rather
like to install your CMS 1000-3 in a 19" rack shelf, no pro-
blem. The only thing you have to do is to replace the
plastic side panels by a pair of metal rack mount ears.
Through its multiple functions, its high dynamic capacity,
and extremely low-noise design in combination with its
24-bit Dual-Stereo effect unit and the DIGITAL AUDIO IN-
TERFACE, the CMS is best equipped for universal use.
1.1 Scope of Delivery, Unpacking and
Inspection
• 1 CMS
• 1 Owner's Manual (this document)
• 1 Quickstart Manual
• 1 Mains Cord (2 meters)
• 1 Warranty Certificate including Safety Instructions
• 1 DVD with USB driver, documentation, software,...
Open the packaging and take out the CMS. Remove the
FX unit display's protective foil. Inspect the CMS's enclo-
sure for damages that might have occured during trans-
portation. Each CMS is examined and tested in detail
before leaving the manufacturing site to ensure that it ar-
rives in perfect condition at your place. Please inform the
transport company immediately if the CMS shows any
damage. Being the addressee, you are the only person
who can claim damages in transit. Keep the cardboard
box and all packaging materials for inspection by the
transport company. Keeping the cardboard box including
all packing materials is also recommended, if the CMS
shows no external damages.
CAUTION: Do not ship the CMS in any other than its
original packaging.
Packing the CMS like it was packed by the manufacturer
guarantees optimum protection from transport damage.

1.2 Warranty

Keep the original invoice that states the purchase/deliv-
ery date together with the warranty certificate at a safe
place. The manufacturer's warranty covers all substantial
defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 36
months from the date of purchase. Liability claims are ac-
cepted solely, when a valid - correctly and completely
filled out - Warranty Registration Form is presented by
the original owner of the product. The warranty does not
cover damage that results from improper or inadequate
treatment or maintenance. In case of alteration or unau-
thorized repairs, the warranty is automatically terminat-
ed.

1.3 Installation and Connections

Do not cover the ventilation louvers in the bottom plate
of the appliance. Always place the CMS on an even sur-
face to allow for sufficient airflow during the operation.
Before establishing the mains supply connection, please
make sure that the device matches the voltage and fre-
quency of your local mains supply. Check the label next
to the mains switch.
HINT: Using original Neutrik connectors is recom-
mended for optimal audio quality.
