3 IF YOU IGNORE MANUALS OR ARE J UST HOT TO GET ST AR TED… Please at least read the sections marked with these two icons: They cover information that is absolutely critical or is unique to the CR-1604. But it’ s still a good idea to read the whole manual through at some point.
4 All the knobs and buttons on the CR-1604’s front panel can be broken down into sixteen identical input modules (channel strips) plus one Master Output section that’s divided into Aux Return and General Output sections (see nifty diagram at right).
5 WUTZA DEEE-TENT? Occasionally in this manual you will see a reference to detents. A detent is a simple but effective control feature that will aid in easy re- setting of your mixers controls. It’s simply a notch in the movement of the control compo- nent, which determines a neutral setting, such as Unity on faders or center on the PAN control.

It can increase presence of a mix, enhance intelligibility of a vocal or back off a strident instrument.
7 SOLO This control does just what it’s name im- plies. By pushing the SOLO button, you can listen in on only that channel while muting the rest of the mixer’ s output.
8 Part 2 — THE MAIN OUTPUT SECTION Now that you have become more familiar with the CR-1604’s channel strips, let’ s move our guided tour on to the Master control center .
9 00 LEVEL SOLO/PHONES MAIN OUTPUT MUTE SOLO TO MAIN ALT PREVIEW • The effect of this button follows the setting of the SOLO TO MAIN button (i.e. if SOLO TO MAIN is pressed IN, the phones and the main output are r eplaced with the Aux Return signals.
10 Always turn the SOLO/PHONES LEVEL con- trol down befor e you put the phone on. Then advance it for best levels with a typical sound source. Engineers who fry their ears find themselves with short car eers. Y ou can also use the PHONES output to in- dependently drive a separate tape recorder , P A system or studio monitor amp.
11 INPUT SENSITIVITY CONTROLS The first set of items on our tour are the sensitivity controls for the 16 input channels. These knobs adjust the input sensitivity of the mic and line inputs so signals from the out- side world are brought into the mixer at optimum internal operating levels.
12 UNBALANCED INPUTS (Channels 7–16) These inputs are designed for mono unbal- anced signals from instrument level to –10dBV or +4dBu. They can be used with just about any pro or semipro instrument, effect or tape recorder . MAINS If you leave this switch in the OFF position, you won’t hear anything.
13 fate befalls the cord, you can use any standard IEC cord like those found on most professional recorders, musical instruments and computers (for example Radio Shack #278-1257 {6-ft} or #278-1261 {12-ft.}). NOTE: Disconnecting the plug’s ground pin can be dangerous.
14 BAL/UNBAL MAIN OUT – STEREO These outputs are electronically balanced (since they have both polarities available and ar e capable of driving +4dBu lines with 28dB of head- room) . They’re also low impedance. • For most music recording and P A applica- tions, unbalanced outputs are perfectly acceptable.
15 through a Channel Access or Stereo Bus in- sert or before/after the mixer . Processors include compressors, limiters, filters or exter - nal equalizers. ODD DUCKS Some newer , digital “Swiss Army Audio Knives” can be switched for compression, limiting and whatever else struck the whim of the product de- signer .
16 • Direct out with no signal interruption to mains. Push a MONO plug into a CHANNEL ACCESS jack until you feel it click once. In this configuration the channel access is acting as an independent direct out with no signal interruption to the master .

18 CAN YOU TRUST YOUR EARS? Even if you have perfect hearing, your ears will not al- ways give you a true idea of what is being heard. Expecially if you like to really crank your monitors while mixing. As the session progresses, your ears will have a tendency to be- come accustomed and eventually numb to volume and EQ levels.
19 SENSITIVITY/LEVEL ADJUSTMENT — The long version As we noted at the be- ginning of this manual achieving the CR-1604’s im- pressive noise and headroom specs, r equir es adjusting channel sensitiv- ity to your particular setup. Can you run the mixer without this adjustment? Sure.
20 CHANGING THE POD T O RACK MOUNT POSITION It only takes about five minutes and a Phillips-head screwdriver to change the CR- 1604’ s input/output pod from tabletop to jacks-to-back position. 1. Remove all cords and cables from the mixer , including a lamp if you’ve plugged one in.
21 W ARRANTY SER VICE The complete fine print of our W arranty is attached to the warranty card that came with your mixer . If you can’t find it, call us and we’ll send you another one.

26 1. How do I get the effects into my monitors? 2. How do I get effects out the AL T 3/4 Bus? 3. How do I set up a monitor or auxiliary send master? 4. What modifications can be done to the mixer? 5. How do I perform the modifications to my mixer? 6.
27 The channel should be set up as if it were receiving any line input signal. This means set- ting the proper input trim level with the fader at unity and setting the pan control (stereo or mono). Next you would MUTE the channel which would send the auxiliary returns out the AL T 3/4 Bus.
28 (8) Q: Can I use the XLR Mic Inputs for balanced line inputs? A: No and Y es. IMPORT ANT!!!!!! The way the board is configur ed from the factory it is not meant to accept a line level signal at the Mic Inputs. Although the mic and line inputs pass through the same preamp stage, the line input has an internal 10dB pad.
