Introduction

HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL

We know that many of you can’t wait to get your

new headphone amp hooked up, and you’re probably

not going to read the manual ﬁrst (sigh!). So the ﬁrst

section after this introduction is a Quick-Start Guide

called “Getting Started” to help you get the HM-54 set

up fast so you can start using it right away. Right after

that are the ever popular hook-up diagrams that show

typical setups for live sound and recording.

Thank you for choosing a Mackie HM-54 Four-Channel

Headphone Ampliﬁer. This 1U rackmount unit features

left and right TRS main inputs, as well as left and right

TRS “direct inputs” on each of the four channels.

The front panel provides an input select switch for

each channel, allowing you to choose between the main

stereo mix or the stereo “direct input.” In addition,

each channel has its own headphone level control and

two headphone jacks, one on the front for easy access

and one on the back panel for hard-wired rackmount

installations.

Then, when you have time, read the Features

Description section. This describes every knob, button,

and connection point on the HM-54.

Throughout this section you’ll ﬁnd illustrations with

each feature numbered. If you want to know more

about a feature, simply locate it on the appropriate

illustration, notice the number attached to it, and ﬁnd

that number in the nearby paragraphs.

The HM-54 provides four separate headphone mixes,

each of which can be switched between the main stereo

mix or a custom mix, perhaps from a pair of subgroup

outputs on the mixer, routed to the left and right phones

input on the HM-54.

This icon marks information that

is critically important or unique to

the HM-54. For your own good, read

them and remember them. They will

be on the ﬁnal test.

A Main Phones input jack allows you to use the

headphone output on the mixer as the main input to

the HM-54 instead of a left and right line-level output.

A Main Input Level control is used to adjust the overall

main input level.

This icon leads you to in-depth

explanations of features and practical

tips. While not mandatory, they

usually have some valuable nugget of

information.

The rugged construction of the HM-54 makes it a

roadworthy companion to your arsenal of gear either

inside or outside of a rack.

A PLUG FOR THE CONNECTOR SECTION

Appendix B is a section on connectors: balanced

connectors, unbalanced connectors, and the phones

connectors used on the HM-54.

More resources on our website at www.mackie.com.

THE GLOSSARY: A Haven of Non-Techiness for

the Neophyte

The “Glossary of Terms” is a fairly comprehensive

dictionary of pro-audio terms. If terms like “clipping,”

“noise ﬂoor,” or “unbalanced” leave you blank, refer to

this glossary for a quick explanation.

Please write your serial number here for future

reference (i.e., insurance claims, tech support,

return authorization, etc.)

ARCANE MYSTERIES ILLUMINATED

“Arcane Mysteries” discusses some of the down ‘n’ dirty

practical realities of microphones, ﬁxed installations,

grounding, and balanced versus unbalanced lines. It’s a

goldmine for the neophyte, and even the seasoned pro

might learn a thing or two.

Getting Started

READ THIS PAGE!!

Even if you’re one of those people

4. With music going through the main mix, don the

turn up the LEVEL control on the front panel for

the corresponding headphone amp. Adjust for a

comfortable listening level.

who never reads manuals, all we ask

is that you read this page now before

you begin using the HM-54. You’ll be

glad you did!

Note: If the volume gets really loud, really fast, turn

down the MAIN INPUT LEVEL control until you

can turn up the headphone amp LEVEL control at

least halfway. Conversely, if you have to turn the

headphone amp LEVEL control all the way up, turn

up the MAIN INPUT LEVEL control a little more.

Zero the Controls

1. Turn down all the INPUT LEVEL controls.

2. Set all push button switches to their “out” positions.

3. Turn the POWER switch off.

5. Push in the SOURCE select switch on headphone

amp 1 and S-L-O-W-L-Y turn up the master

subgroup or aux send level control feeding the

DIRECT INPUT to headphone amp 1. Adjust for

a comfortable listening level, equivalent to the

volume level of the main mix.

Connections

1. Connect the left and right outputs from your mixer

to the LEFT and RIGHT MAIN LINE INPUTS on the

rear of the HM-54.

6. Repeat for headphone amps 2-4.

2. Connect any speciﬁc outputs (mix buses, subgroups,

or aux sends can be used, or a direct output from

a speciﬁc device will also work) to the desired

headphone amp LEFT and RIGHT DIRECT INPUT.

7. Now the individual performers can tweak their own

headphone mixes to suit their individual tastes.

Other Nuggets of Wisdom

3. Plug in four sets of headphones to the front of the

unit. If you are hard-wiring the installation, you

may want to use the rear output jacks.

•

Always turn the HM-54 off before making or

changing connections.

4. Connect the detachable linecord to the AC socket

on the back, connect it to an AC outlet properly

conﬁgured for your particular model, and turn on

the HM-54’s power switch.

•

When you shut down your equipment, turn off the

ampliﬁers ﬁrst. When powering up, turn on the

ampliﬁers last.

•

Never listen to loud music for prolonged periods.

Please see the Safety Instructions on page 2 for

information on hearing protection.

Set the Levels

1. On your mixing console, get a reasonable stereo mix

going.

Save the shipping box! You may need it someday,

and you don’t want to have to pay for another one.

2. Using the subgroup or aux send that you have

connected to headphone amp 1’s direct inputs,

create a unique headphone mix. Leave the master

subgroup or aux send level control all the way

down.

That’s it for the “Getting Started” section. Next comes

the “Hookup” section that shows you some typical ways

that you might use the HM-54 in real applications. After

that, you can take the grand tour of the HM-54, with

descriptions of every knob, button, input, and output.

We encourage you to take the time to read all of the

feature descriptions, but at least you know it’s there if

you have any questions.

3. Turn the MAIN INPUT LEVEL halfway up to the

center detent position. This is just a starting point.

We can adjust it later, if necessary.

HM-54 Live Sound Application

This illustrates using the HM-54 with an Onyx

400F studio preamp in a recording application.

The microphones and instruments are connected

to the 400F and tracked to the DAW via the

FireWire connection. Separate stereo headphone

mixes are returned from the DAW over the

FireWire connection using the DAW’s stereo auxes,

and connected to the Phones Inputs on the HM-54

via the eight analog outputs on the 400F.

This example demonstrates how to use an Onyx 1640 mixer with the optional FireWire card in

a recording application. Four aux sends from the 1640 provide four separate mono headphone

mixes to the HM-54. The Phones output from the 1640 is connected to the Main Phones Input

on the HM-54, allowing the talent to listen to either the same mix as the engineer in the control

room (i.e., stereo return from the DAW for overdubbing), or to their own individual headphone

mix (tracking). If the talent and engineer are in the same room, each musician can adjust their

own headphone mix on the Onyx mixer by tweaking their own aux send.

HM-54 Features

Front Panel

All four headphone ampliﬁers share the same features:

3. SOURCE Select Switch

•

Dual-sources for each channel

This switch allows you to select either the main mix

input signal or the direct input signal for the headphone

amp source.

Individual front panel level controls

Front and rear panel phone outputs for each channel

Balanced inputs

CAUTION: Make sure the main mix

input signal and the direct input

signal are roughly equivalent in

1. MAIN INPUT LEVEL

volume before switching between

the two. If you have the headphone

amp LEVEL control [4] adjusted for one, and the other

signal is considerably louder, you could damage your

hearing. Follow the procedure described in “Set the

Levels” on page 5.

This adjusts the main mix input signal level coming

into the HM-54 LINE INPUT and PHONES INPUT jacks

on the rear panel.

2. PHONES Jack

Plug your headphones into this jack. It carries the

same signals that appear on the rear panel PHONES

OUTPUT jacks [8].

4. LEVEL Control

This adjusts the volume for each individual

headphone output. It affects both PHONES OUTPUT

jacks (front and rear panel).

You can also connect an in-ear monitor (IEM) system to

the PHONES jack to provide an individual monitor mix.

Note: Since the PHONES output delivers a higher signal

level than a standard line-level output, you may need to 5. Power Switch

turn thePHONES LEVEL control down more than usual.

This one is self-explanatory. When the power switch is

turned ON (up), power is supplied to the HM-54 and the

power ON indicator lights up.

Note: Plugging headphones into the front panel

PHONES jack automatically disconnects the signal from

the rear panel PHONES jack.

WARNING: The headphone amps

are designed to drive any standard

headphones to a very loud level.

We’re not kidding! They can cause

permanent hearing damage. Even

intermediate levels may be painfully

loud with some headphones.

BE CAREFUL! Always start with the PHONES level

turned all the way down before connecting headphones

to the PHONES jack. Keep it down until you’ve put on

the headphones. Then turn it up slowly. Why? Always

remember: “Engineers who fry their ears, ﬁnd

themselves with short careers.”

9. LEFT and RIGHT MAIN INPUT

Rear Panel

These 1/4" TRS jacks accept a balanced or unbalanced

line-level input signal. This is the signal that you select

when you leave the SOURCE select switch [3] on the

front panel in the out position, so connect the main mix

output from the mixer to these inputs.

The rear panel is where you make all your analog audio

connections to the HM-54 (except for the convenient

additional headphone jacks on the front).

6. IEC Power Receptacle

The 1/4" TRS inputs are wired as follows:

Sleeve = Shield or ground

This is a standard 3-prong IEC power connector.

Connect the detachable linecord (included in the box

with your HM-54) to the power receptacle, and plug

the other end of the linecord into an AC outlet properly

conﬁgured for your particular model.

Tip = Positive (+ or hot)

Ring = Negative (– or cold)

If you are connecting a mono input signal to these

inputs, use a Y-Cord splitter to connect the signal to

both inputs (otherwise you will only hear the effects

in one side of the headphones). See “Mults and Y’s” in

Appendix B for more info.

7. LEFT and RIGHT PHONES INPUT

These 1/4" TRS jacks accept a balanced or

unbalanced line-level input signal. This is the signal

that you select when you push in the SOURCE select

switch [3] on the front panel, so connect the individual

headphone mix from the mixer to these inputs.

10. MAIN PHONES INPUT

This is a 1/4" TRS headphone input jack. This allows

you to use the headphone output from your mixer to

provide the main mix signal to the HM-54. Simply use a

TRS-to-TRS cable to connect the PHONES output from

the mixer to this input on the HM-54.

The 1/4" TRS inputs are wired as follows:

Sleeve = Shield or ground

Tip = Positive (+ or hot)

Ring = Negative (– or cold)

Note: Plugging the main mix signal into the MAIN

PHONES INPUT jack automatically disconnects the

LEFT and RIGHT MAIN INPUT [9] jacks.

If you are connecting a mono input signal to these

inputs, use a Y-Cord splitter to connect the signal to

both inputs (otherwise you will only hear the signal

in one side of the headphones). See “Mults and Y’s” in

Appendix B for more info.

8. PHONES OUTPUT

This is another headphone output that duplicates the

PHONES [2] output on the front panel. Typically, you

would use these when installing the HM-54 in a rack

and hard-wiring the headphone outputs to a patch panel

in the rack.

Note: Plugging headphones into the front panel

PHONES jack automatically disconnects the signal from

the rear panel PHONES jack.

Appendix A: Service Information

Bad Output

Warranty Service

•

If you are listening to a PHONES OUTPUT [8] on

Details concerning Warranty Service are spelled out in

the Warranty section on page 15.

the rear panel, make sure that nothing is plugged

into the corresponding PHONES out on the front

panel.

If you think your HM-54 has a problem, please do

everything you can to conﬁrm it before calling for

service. Doing so might save you from the deprivation of

your headphone amp and the associated suffering.

•

If only one side of the stereo headphones is working,

make sure you have a signal at both inputs. There

must be a signal present at both inputs [7][9][10]

to get a signal in both sides of the headphone

output.

These may sound obvious to you, but here are some

things you can check. Read on.

Bad Sound

•

Is the input connector plugged completely into the

jack?

Troubleshooting

No Power

•

Is it loud and distorted? Make sure the input LEVEL

[4] control for the channel is set correctly. Reduce

the signal level on the input source if possible.

•

Our favorite question: Is it plugged in?

Make sure the power cord is securely seated in the

IEC socket [6] and plugged all the way into the AC

outlet.

•

If possible, listen to the signal with headphones

plugged into the input source device. If it sounds

bad there, it’s not the HM-54 causing the problem.

•

Make sure the AC outlet is live (check with a tester

or lamp).

Noise/Hum

Is the POWER [5] switch on? Make sure the

POWER switch on the front panel is in the ON

position (up) and the power LED is lit.

•

If connecting an unbalanced source to the balanced

inputs on the HM-54 using a TS-to-TS 1/4" cable, it

could cause a ground loop. Refer to “Unbalancing

a Line” for more info on connecting an unbalanced

source to a balanced input.

•

Are all the lights out in your building? If so, contact

your local power company to get power restored.

Sometimes it helps to plug all the audio equipment

into the same AC circuit so they share a common

ground.

If the power LED is not illuminated on the front

panel, and you are certain that the AC outlet is live,

it will be necessary to have your HM-54 serviced.

There are no user serviceable parts inside. Refer to

“Repair” at the end of this section to ﬁnd out how to

proceed.

Bad Channel

•

Is the input LEVEL control [4] for the channel

turned up?

•

Is the signal source turned up? Make sure the signal

level from the selected input source is high enough

to drive the line-level inputs on the HM-54.

•

Try the same source signal in another channel, set

up exactly like the suspect channel.

1/4" TRS Phone Plugs and Jacks Unbalancing a Line

“TRS” stands for Tip-Ring-Sleeve, the three connection

points available on a stereo 1/4" or balanced phone

jack or plug. TRS jacks and plugs are used for balanced

signals and stereo headphones.

In most studio, stage, and sound reinforcement situations,

there is a combination of balanced and unbalanced inputs

and outputs on the various pieces of equipment. This

usually will not be a problem in making connections.

•

When connecting a balanced output to an

unbalanced input, use a 1/4" TRS plug on the

balanced end and a 1/4" TS plug on the unbalanced

end. Be sure the signal high (hot) connections

are wired to each other (tip to tip), and that the

balanced signal low (cold, ring) goes to the ground

(earth, shield) connection at the unbalanced

input. In most cases, the balanced ground (earth)

will also be connected to the ground (earth) at

the unbalanced input. If there are ground-loop

problems, this connection may be left disconnected

at the balanced end.
