Page 11: Filters Reference
FILTER REFERENCE The VCF Filters A voltage controlled filter is an audio filter where the cut-off frequency is altered by a DC control voltage rather than a variable resistor. This produces a much wider operating range and more control over the filter response to create unlimited combinations of tonal effect. -
Page 12: Operating Levels
OPERATING LEVELS It is most important that the system level settings are correctly set. It is well known that many DJs push the level to maximum with meters peaking hard in the belief that they are getting the best from the system. THIS IS NOT THE CASE ! The best can only be achieved if the system levels are set within the normal operating range and not allowed to peak. -
Page 13: Earthing
Do not unbalance the Xone:23 XLR outputs by shorting pin 3 to ground as this may damage the circuitry; for unbalanced operation connect the hot signal to pin 2 and the ground to pin 1. -
Page 14: Servicing
SERVICING How to replace the crossfader If the crossfader is subject to a lot of use it will, in time wear out and need replacing. Intermittent or noisy operation is an indication that it is becoming worn. Using a propriety fader cleaner such as CaigLube might temporarily restore use, but DO NOT use on a new fader as it will wash away the factory applied grease. -
