When setting up a system of this type, the
first thing to do ¡s to put the speakers and
amplifiers ¡n their proper positíons. Then wire
each system. Make sure the Studio 8 faders
are down and the power en all units ¡s off.
When all systems are wired and your mies
and instruments are connected, begin turning
on the system. Turn on electronic Instruments
first, followed by your Studio 8, then monitor
and headphone amplifiers.
With the faders still down, set all EQcontrols
to their center, fíat position. Set the channel
input selectors to the appropriate positions,
LINE on all synthesizer channeis and MIC on
any microphone channels. Press the appropriate
ASSIGN and REC FUNCTION switches, and
raise the PGM MASTERSand STEREO MASTER
Faders to the shaded area between 7 and 8.
Play instruments and begin setting the channel
leveis by slowly raising the faders. If the leveis
of any
of
these
channels
is
too high, as
indicated by the meters or OL LEDs, and the
channel fader must be kept below the 5 setting,
then use the TRIM control or a less sensitiva
microphone, or turn down the volume controls
on your instruments. Remember to watch your
leveis on percussive, cross modulated, highiy
resonant, and fast attack patches. Drunn machine
leveis should aiso be watched closely.
