1 Introduction

Because of its comprehensive set of integrated features
– like equalizer and effects units – the Compact Mixing
System DYNACORD CMS 600-3 is a professional mixer of-
fering an optimized all-in-one solution for basically any
application. The CMS console is quickly set up. Compli-
cated rack configuration and interference-prone wiring of
several 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: compact
dimensions and a very low weight. However, if you would
rather like to install your CMS 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 USB 2.0 DIGITAL
AUDIO INTERFACE, the CMS is best equipped for univer-
sal use.
1.1 Scope of Delivery, Unpacking and
Inspection
• 1 CMS
• 1 Owner's Manual (this document)
• 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.

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.
