Operating Instructions

This product will produce sound whether it is properly adjusted or not. However, if you take a

few moments to follow a simple startup procedure, you can optimize the sound for a superior

presentation based on your performance style and preferences.

Unless you make big changes in how you perform, this is typically a one-time event.

1. Set all Trim and Level controls on the PS1 power stand to zero (0).

2. Set the MASTER and all LEVEL controls on the R1 remote control to zero (0).

3. Set the Power switch to On.

CAUTION: The peak inrush current for the system is approximately 32 amps. If more than one

system is plugged into the same AC circuit, make sure you stagger the turn-on times. This can

prevent tripping the circuit breaker or blowing the house mains fuse.

4. Plug your microphone or instrument into the Channel 1 or 2 Input jack. If phantom

power is required for your microphone (condenser or electret/condenser type), depress

the Phantom power button.

Note: You can dial in a preset to improve the tone of many commonly used microphones and

musical instruments. See the preset list inside the rear panel door for a list of supported

instruments.

5. Sing or play as loud as you would in a performance while following steps 6 and 7.

6. Adjust the Trim control so that the Signal/OL indicator goes from unlit to green, and

finally to occasionally blinking red. Make sure that your instrument is at the highest vol-

ume setting that you are planning to use. For vocalists, sing as loud as you would during

the performance to achieve the maximum expected input signal.

7. Adjust the LEVEL control on the R1 remote control and make the SIG/OL indicator go

from unlit to green, and finally to occasionally blinking red.

That's it! You're done! When you go to your concert or show:

• Use the CH 1 and 2 LEVEL controls on the R1 remote control to adjust the Channel 1 and

2 volume level.

• Use the MASTER control on the R1 remote control to adjust the volume level of all

outputs.

• Use the HIGH, MID, and LOW equalization controls on the R1 remote control to adjust the

timbre of your sound.

Initially, keep the R1 remote control close at hand. This allows you to conveniently adjust the

volume level when you first start playing. Later, you can move it out of the way or backstage

once the system is performing the way you want it to.

Note: For more information on presets and amplifying the true sound of your instrument(s),

The Channel 3 and 4 inputs are optimized for 0 dB line-level signals, such as the signals from

an effects processor, mixer, or CD player. Simply connect the equipment to the PS1 power

stand and raise the output level using the Channel 3 and 4 Level control on the rear panel of

the PS1 power stand.
