By purchasing a 1601E you have joined an exclusive club of musicians, re-mixers and Djs who have discovered a new level of power and control over the effects in their music. Previously, to make effects happen in time with music was a matter of painstaking analysis of the source signal and time consuming tweaking of parameters on effects units to make sure that the tempo inherent in the effects did no

INITIAL WIRING CONSIDERATIONS For optimum performance, it is essential for the earthing system to be clean and noise free, as all signals are referenced to this earth. A central point should be decided on for the main earth point system, and all earths should be 'star fed' from this point. It is common electrical practice to `daisy chain' the earths to all electrical outlets but this method is unsuitable for audio installations. The preferred method is to run an individual earth wire from each o

POINTS TO REMEMBER In all cases, use good quality twin screened audio cable. Check for instability at the output. Always connect both conductors at both ends, and ensure that the screen is only connected at one end. Do not disconnect the mains earth from each piece of equipment. This is needed to provide both safety and screen returns to the system star point. Equipment which has balanced inputs and outputs may need to be electrically isolated from the equipment rack and/or other equipment, to a
