Getting Started  
1. Power Supply  
SPX613 & SPX815  
The SPX Series powered mixers are supplied with an internal AC power supply. Connect the  
appropriate grounded IEC power cable to the SPX mixer BEFORE connecting it to the power source  
outlet. It is important to allow for adequate ventilation for the powered mixer as it may become warm  
during long periods of operation. Be sure to allow for free air flow around the powered mixer to  
minimize excessive heat build-up.  
Each SPX mixer is shipped with the correct power supply and cable for the country in which it is to be  
used. The SPX mixer is NOT to be used in a country using a different source supply voltage other than  
for which it is designed. Note the operating voltage shown near the AC power cord jack and ONLY  
connect this unit to the appropriate AC source voltage.  
2. Packing  
The exterior and interior packaging has been designed to protect the mixer during transit. If any  
shipping damage has occurred, consult your dealer and the shipping provider.  
3. Safety  
Avoid excessive heat, humidity, dust and vibration. Store and operate the powered mixer away from  
locations where it is likely to be exposed to lack of ventilation, high temperatures or humidity. Also,  
avoid locations which may be subject to excessive dust and lint or vibration / physical shocks that  
could cause mechanical damage to the powered mixer.  
WARNING: REFER ALL MAINTENANCE, REPAIRS AND MODIFICATIONS TO QUALIFIED  
SERVICE PERSONNEL! THIS PRODUCT CONTAINS NO USER-SERVICEABLE PARTS!  
For the protection of the powered mixer and other audio equipment, always turn off the power on the  
powered mixer and other system components before connecting or disconnecting audio cables.  
4. Warranty  
The SPX Series mixers are covered, by limited warranty, of any defects in workmanship for a period of  
one year from the date of purchase. This warranty is non-transferable and applies only to the original  
purchaser. If any warranty related issues occur, contact your dealer.

FEATURES AND CONTROLS  
Mono Mic/Line Input Channels :  
1. Low Impedance (Low Z) Mic Input jacks with s witchable global phantom  
, ,  
,,  
power: The low noise, high headroom Low Z mic inputs are for use with balanced, low impedance  
microphones.  
,,  
, ,  
,,  
1
2. Hi-Z Line Level Input jacks : These /4 Tip, Ring, Sleeve (TRS) jacks are designed to be  
connected to (-10 to +4dBu) balanced or unbalanced line level sources.  
, ,  
,,  
3. Super Hi-Z inputs : Channels 6 & 7 on the SPX613 and Channels 8 & 9 on the SPX815 for  
connection of unbalanced, low level instrument signals such as an electric guitar or electric bass.  
4. Stereo Line Level Input jacks : Channels 8 & 10 on the SPX613 and Channels 10 & 12 on  
,,  
the SPX815. These dual 1 /4 Tip, Ring, Sleeve (TRS) and dual RCA phono jacks are designed to be  
connected to (-10 to +4dBu) balanced or unbalanced line level sources. A mono signal can be  
connected by using only the left input jack. The mono signal, connected like this, will be routed to both  
left and right outputs and will be controlled by the position of the pan knob of that channel.  
5. USB Stereo Input and Output  
This digital input and output is provided to allow for the direct digital connection to a computer USB  
port for both the playback and recording of signals to and from a digital audio software program. The  
output signal is derived from the stereo Main Mix, pre master level, and the input signal is routed to  
channel input 9-10 on the SPX613 and channel 12-13 on the SPX815. Consult the manufacturer of  
,,  
1
your software for details. The USB input is not disabled by the input of line level signals to the /4  
jacks on the channel. Both the analog and digital signal can be used simultaneously.  
6. Level Control: Adjusts the level of the input signal to the mixer.  
7. TRIM Control: In order to achieve the best signal to noise ratio and adequate dynamic range,  
the input preamp level of each mono channel is controlled by the TRIM control knob on each channel.  
To set the TRIM control, watch the PEAK LED while the signal source for that channel is active  
(whether it be a singer using a microphone or an instrument connected to the LINE INPUT of the  
channel). If the PEAK LED (#8) on the channel lights up consistently, the Gain Control is set too high.  
The ideal setting is obtained, when the PEAK LED only flashes periodically.  
8. PEAK indicator LED: The PEAK indicator LED will illuminate when the input signal level is  
3dB before clipping (signal distortion).  
9. PAN Control: On the mono channels, the PAN control adjusts the balance of the signal being  
sent to the left and right MAIN MIX. Turning the PAN control fully left on a stereo channel will cause  
the right input's signal level to decrease. Turning the PAN control fully right on a stereo channel will  
cause the left input's signal level to decrease.  
10. EQ (Equalization): Each mono channel on the SPX Series mixers features a three band  
, , ,,  
Equalization ( EQ ) section. Each band allows for up to 15 decibels of boost (increase) or cut  
(decrease) of the signal in the tone range for which it controls (HI, MID, LOW). In the center detented  
position, the equalizer is bypassed (FLAT) and the control has no effect on the tonal characteristics of  
the signal. The HI EQ control is centered at 12kHz, the MID EQ control is centered at 2.5kHz and the  
LOW EQ control is centered at 80Hz. Stereo channels have two band equalization with the HI EQ  
control is centered at 10kHz and the LOW EQ control is centered at 100Hz.

Controls : Each EFX control is post  
channel level and post EQ. Any  
11  
changes made to the channel level  
and/or the equalizer section of a  
channel will affect the EFX SEND

Windows , Mac OS-X and other operating systems. As a Plug-and-Play device, the interface  
requires no drivers or additional software to function. Simply connect the device to the computer using  
a standard USB A-to-B cable, power the mixer on and follow any on-screen prompts. Once the  
operating system recognizes the USB device it is ready for use.  
The computer's operating system will recognize the USB device as a virtual sound card with Stereo  
Output and Stereo Input. You can then play sounds out through the SPX mixer just as if it were your  
R
O
computer's sound card. Simply open any audio software application (such as Windows Media Player)  
and play an audio file. Note that you may have to change the audio properties to send the signal to  
the SPX.  
The USB port allows for the export of the Stereo mix from the SPX into the computer for recording.  
The SPX output signal is derived from the Stereo Main Mix and is Pre-Fader. The signal level sent to  
the computer is not affected by the SPX Main Master level control. In order to receive a signal from the  
R
O
SPX simply open any audio recording application (such as Windows Sound Recorder) and set the  
audio recording properties to the SPX.  
Bonus Software included with the SPX
