Please note that all units must be properly grounded. ◊
For your own safety, you should never remove any
ground connectors from electrical devices or power
cables, or render them inoperative.
Please ensure that only qualified people install and ◊
operate the mixing console. During installation and
operation, the user must have sufficient electrical
contact to earth, otherwise electrostatic discharges
might affect the operation of the unit.

Control elements and 2.
connectors
This chapter describes the various control elements of your
mixing console. All controls, switches and connectors will be
discussed in detail.
Mono channels2.1
Microphone and line inputs2.1.1
Connectors and controls of mic/line inputsFig. 2.1:
MIC
Each mono input channel offers a balanced microphone input
via the XLR connector and also features switchable
+48 V phantom power supply for condenser microphones.
The XENYX preamps provide undistorted and noise-free gain
as is typically known only from costly outboard preamps.
Please mute your playback system before you activate ◊
the phantom power supply to prevent switch-on
thumps being directed to your loudspeakers. Please
also note the instructions in chapter 2.3.5 “Phantom
power and LED displays”.
LINE IN
Each mono input also features a balanced line input on a
¼" connector. Unbalanced devices (mono jacks) can also be
connected to these inputs.
Please remember that you can only use either the ◊
microphone or the line input of a channel at any one
time. You can never use both simultaneously!
GAIN
Use the GAIN control to adjust the input gain. This control
should always be turned fully counterclockwise whenever you
connect or disconnect a signal source to one of the inputs.
Equalizer2.1.2
All mono input channels include a 3-band equalizer, except
for the 502, which is equipped with a 2-band EQ. All bands
provide boost or cut of up to 15 dB. In the central position,
the equalizer is inactive.
The circuitry of the British EQs is based on the technology
used in the best-known top-of-the-line consoles and
providing a warm sound without any unwanted side effects.
The result are extremely musical equalizers which, unlike
simple equalizers, cause no side effects such as phase
shifting or bandwidth limitation, even with extreme gain
settings of ±15 dB.
The equalizer of the mono input channelsFig. 2.2:
EQ
The upper (HI) and the lower band (LO) are shelving filters
that increase or decrease all frequencies above or below
their cut-off frequency. The cut-off frequencies of the upper
and lower band are 12 kHz and 80 Hz respectively. The mid
band (802/1002/1202) is configured as a peak filter with a
center frequency of 2.5 kHz.
LOW CUT
In addition, the mono channels (1002 and 1202) are
equipped with a steep LOW CUT filter (slope at 18 dB/oct.,
-3 dB at 75 Hz) designed to eliminate unwanted low-
frequency signal components.
FX sends, panorama and level adjustment2.1.3
The FX send/panorama/level controlsFig. 2.3:
FX (802/1002/1202 only)
FX sends (or AUX sends) enable you to feed signals via a
variable control from one or more channels and sum these
signals to a bus. The bus appears at the console’s FX send
output and can be fed from there to an external effects
device. The return from the effects unit is then brought
back into the console on the aux return connectors (802) or
normal channel inputs. Each FX send is mono and features
up to +15 dB gain.
As the name suggests, the FX sends of the XENYX mixing
consoles are intended to drive effects devices (reverb, delay,
etc) and are therefore configured post-fader. This means that
the mix between dry signal and effect remains at the level
determined by the channel’s aux send, irrespective of the
channel fader setting. If this were not the case, the effects
signal of the channel would remain audible even when the
fader is lowered to zero.
PAN
The PAN control determines the position of the channel
signal within the stereo image. This control features a
constant-power characteristic, which means the signal
is always maintained at a constant level, irrespective of
position in the stereo panorama.
LEVEL
The LEVEL control determines the level of the channel signal
in the main mix.
CLIP
The CLIP LED’s of the mono channels illuminate when the
input signal is driven too high, which could cause distortion.
If this happens, use the GAIN control to reduce the preamp
level until the LED does not light anymore.
Stereo channels2.2
Stereo line inputs2.2.1
Stereo line inputsFig. 2.4:
LINE IN
Each stereo channel has two balanced line level inputs on
¼" jacks for left and right channels. If only the jack marked
“L” (left) is used, the channel operates in mono. The stereo
channels are designed to handle typical line level signals.
Both inputs will also accept unbalanced jacks.
Equalizer stereo channels (802)2.2.2
The XENYX 802 features a stereo 3-band EQ in each stereo
channel. The filter characteristics and cut-off frequencies are
the same as those in the mono channels.
The equalizer of the stereo input channelsFig. 2.5:
A stereo EQ is highly preferable to two mono equalizers.
when working on a stereo signal, as two separate EQ’s will
usually produce an unwanted discrepancy between the left
and right channels.
