Test Conditions:
Specifications are per channel.
0 dBu corresponds to 0.775 volts RMS regardless of
circuit impedance. This equals 0 dBm into a 600 ohm
circuit for convenient level measurements using meters
calibrated for 600 ohm circuits.
Noise specs based on 20 kHz bandwidth. Noise
increases about 1.7 dB if a meter with a 30 kHz band-
width is used.

Warranty

The X-mixer console carries a manufacturer's
warranty subject to the following guidelines
and limitations:
A)
Except as expressly excluded here-
in, Arakis ("Seller") warrants equipment of its
own manufacture against faulty workmanship
or the use of defective materials for a period of
one (1) year from date of shipment to Buyer.
The liability of the Seller under this Warranty
is limited to replacing, repairing or issuing
credit (at the Seller's discretion) for any equip-
ment, provided that Seller is promptly notified
in writing within five (5) days upon discovery
of such defects by Buyer, and Seller's examina-
tion of such equipment shall disclose to its sat-
isfaction that such defects existed at the time
shipment was originally made by Seller, and
Buyer returns the defective equipment to Sell-
er's place of business in Loveland, Colorado,
packaging and transportation prepaid, with
return packaging and transport guaranteed.
B)
Equipment furnished by Seller, but
manufactured by another, shall be warranted
only to the extent provided by the other manu-
facturer.
C)
Thermal filament devices (such as
lamps and fuses) are expressly excluded from
this warranty.
D)
The warranty period on equipment
or parts repaired or replaced under warranty
shall expire upon the expiration date of the
original warranty.
E)
This Warranty is void for equip-
ment which has been subject to abuse, improp-
er installation, improper operation, improper
or omitted maintenance, alteration, accident,
negligence (in use, storage, transportation or
handling), operation not in accordance with
Seller's operation and service instructions, or
operation outside of the environmental condi-
tions specified by Seller.
F)
This Warranty is the only warranty
made by Seller, and is in lieu of all other war-
ranties, including merchantability and fitness
for a particular purpose, whether expressed or
implied, except as to title and to the expressed
specifications contained in this manual. Seller's
sole liability for any equipment failure or any
breach of this Warranty is as set forth in sub-
paragraph A) above; Seller shall not be liable
or responsible for any business loss or interrup-
tion, or other consequential damages of any
nature whatsoever, resulting from any equip-
ment failure or breach of this warranty.
