4 Connections
Prior to making or changing any connections, switch
off the effect unit and the units to be connected .
1) Connect the line output of a mono signal source
(e . g . effect send output of a mixer, output of a
musical instrument or of a microphone preampli-
fier) to the jack INPUT (14) .
2) Connect the jacks OUTPUT (12) to the line inputs
of the subsequent unit . When returning the effect
signal to a mixer, connect the jacks OUTPUT to
the return inputs or to two input channels of
the mixer .
3) For remote control of the function of the button
BYPASS / F2 (8) via a footswitch (e . g . FS-60 from
MONACOR), connect the footswitch to the jack
FOOTSWITCH (13) .
4) Connect the low-voltage plug of the power sup-
ply unit to the jack "9V~" (11) and the power
supply unit to a mains socket (230 V / 50 Hz) .
5 Operation
1) Switch on the effect unit with the POWER switch
(10) . The blue LED ON (9) will light up as a power
indication .
2) To make the subsequent settings audible, set the
controls INPUT LEVEL (1), MIX (3) and OUTPUT
LEVEL (4) to mid-position for the time being .
Switch on the units connected to the MFX-16M
and feed a signal to the effect unit . If the LED
above the button BYPASS / F2 (8) lights up, press
this button; otherwise no effect will be audible .
Note: If the effect signal is mixed to the direct signal
in the mixer, set the control MIX of the MFX-16M to
the right stop (position EFFECT) .
3) To adjust the input level, turn up the control INPUT
LEVEL to such an extent that the red overload LED
CLIP (2) will briefly light up with music peaks .
Then slightly turn back the control until the LED
goes out .
The LED CLIP will also indicate overload of
the effect processor . Therefore, when you select
another effect, the LED may light up despite the
same input level . In this case, also turn back the
control INPUT LEVEL accordingly .
4) Match the output level to the subsequent unit
with the control OUTPUT LEVEL .
5) Select the desired effect with the selector switch
EFFECT SELECT (7) . A short description of the
different effects can be found in the following
chapter .
6) Adjust the effect intensity with the control MIX .
7) Depending on the effect selected, it will be pos-
sible to adjust one, two or four effect parameters
with the control FX VARIATION (5) .The table on
page 3 gives an overview of the adjustable pa-
rameters . A description of these parameters can
be found in the following chapter .
For effects with two adjustable parameters,
press the button TAP/ F1 (6) to change the func-
tion of the control FX VARIATION: When the LED
above the button does not light up, parameter 1
is adjustable; when the LED lights up, parame-
ter 2 is adjustable . For the effect DELAY/REV, four
parameters are adjustable, see chapter 6 .5 .
Note: If you select another effect, its parameter 1
will be set to the value of its last use . The position
of the control FX VARIATION will have no effect . The
parameter will not be set to the value corresponding
to the control position before the control has been
actuated .
8) For fine adjustment of the effect, repeat steps 4,
6 and 7, if required .
9) To activate / deactivate the effect, press the button
BYPASS / F2 (8) or use a footswitch connected to
the jack FOOTSWITCH (13) . When the effect has
been deactivated, the green LED above the button
BYPASS / F2 will light up .
Note: When the control MIX is set to the right stop
(position EFFECT) and the effect is deactivated, no
signal will be audible (exception: effect ROTARY,
☞ chap ter 6 .4) .
10) After operation, switch off the effect unit with the
POWER switch . If the unit is not in use for a longer
period of time, disconnect the power supply unit
from the socket to prevent unnecessary power
consumption .
