Unpacking and Inspection

Your Philtre was packed carefully at the factory. The shipping
carton was designed to protect the unit during shipping. Please
retain this container in the highly unlikely event that you need to
return the Philtre for servicing.
The shipping carton should contain the following items:
•
Philtre with the same serial number as shown on the
shipping carton
•
Power Adapter
•

Installing in a Rack

The Philtre is designed for tabletop use, but can also be installed
in a standard 19" audio equipment rack. For rack mounting,
contact your Alesis dealer for the ModFX Rack. This rack shelf
holds three ModFX units in a 3-space high 19" rack.

Power

The Philtre comes with an AC power adapter that transforms
the voltage from a standard outlet into 9 volts AC (830 mA).
Plug the small end of the power adapter cord into the Philtre's
POWER 9VAC socket and then plug the adapter itself into a good
quality, noise-free AC power source of the proper rating.
The supplied AC line adapter is designed only for the destination
to which the unit is shipped. To use the Philtre in another
country, contact your Alesis dealer for a P3 adapter suitable for
the electrical system in the country you are traveling to.
