Redmond, WA 98052 Phone (20G) 883-3510 P N 70000» 1. Introduction The 6100 series mixers are the natural result of exhaustive laboratory research and actual field testing This mixer is designed to be easy to use. and to provide optimum performance under even the most demanding conditions The 6100 mixing system incorporates every one of TAPCO's time-tested design and construction techniques into a unit that gives you every control you need, and a format designed specifically for live music sound reinforcement. Every input channel has an AutoPad® volume control, switchable bass and midrange controls a treble control, an effects/reverb send control and an independent monitor control, The output section has master volume master monitor, reverberation controls, switchable microphone equalization and rumble filters and effects return level controls. Output levels are constantly monitored by a pair of meters for monitor and master out The net result of all these features is precise audio control — more control means better sound, and better sound is what you get with the 6100 More and more, popular music is becoming a truly symbiotic combination of artistry and technology. New techniques have made records sound almost better than the real thing, and high quality playback systems are found in almost every living room. Electronic musical instruments have expanded the range of modem music so that entire symphonic performances are now given with just one instrument, the synthesizer Musicians have come to depend upon electronic systems. through sound reinforcement, recording and broadcasting, to get their music to the public. And. of course, the public has come to depend upon those same systems. The quality of sound experienced by most people today is so good that it's taken for granted. It's just oart of our everyday lives As a result, poor quality sound becomes glaringly apparent, and this is taken, unfortunately, as an indication of the quality of the music itself. Music is no longer judged simply by the quality of the performance, because people will no longer accept poor quality sound. You don't expect high performance from outdated equipment We can only assume that's why you now own a 6100 system. But it’s not always the equipment that's at fault when the sound is bad. The world's best equipment can't cure your sound problems if it's not used properly. To that end, we urge you to read your Owner's Manual carefully. It provides the informational tools you need to learn to play the 6100 just as you would play a musical instrument The control functions on the 6100 are meant to be dynamic — they are meant to be used The settings on your mixer must flow just as smoothly as the music itself in order to produce a perfectly blended composite product In the final analysis, the quality of the music will be only as good as the quality of the mixing. 2 /-y\ *-r-; INPUT CHANNEL (one of six) Ma* input tevei 10V RMS input 2 > ijOKorvns 2. 6100 Block Diagram The circuitry and controls on the 6100 are represented here in block form, so you can see how the signals are processed through the system. For simplicity's sake, only the master unit is illustrated — eight more identical input channels can be added by connecting the 6100 “E" series expander to the special plug on the master unit Fold this page out so you can see it easily as you read through the functional descriptions that follow — it will serve as a road map to guide you through the system. 3. Input Control Functions 1. MONITOR controls the loudness of me individual input channel in the completely separate rm> that appears at the MONITOR SEND jack THE MONITOR CONTROL IS PRE EVERYTHING - IT IS NOT AFFECTED BY ANY OTHER CONTROL SETTINGS ON THE INPUT CHANNEL With this pre-everything monitor system you never nave to reset the stage monitors to compensate for changes in the house mix See Secron 7. How to use the 6100 System" for more spec tic information on setting up the monitors and a couple cihe' ways to use the circuit. 2. EFFECTS/REV. sets the amount of reverberation or special effects added from the input channel This control sends signals simultaneously to both the internal reverb system and to the EFFECTS SEND jack located on the Dack panel When either or both of these systems are in use the overall amount of reverb or effects heard at the output is set by the corresponding master section effects level control The EFFECTS/REV control is post everything — the signal is subject to all the control settings on the input channel except MONITOR. 3. TREBLE is set to give you i8dB of boost or cut at 20KHz Above 20KHz the response is gradually rolled off so ultrasonic frequencies are not over compensated 4. MIDRANGE can be boosted or cut 12dB a: either the 800Hz or 2 5KHz position These are the frequencies at which you get full boost or cut from the control, but as you can see in the response curves they are most assuredly not the only frequencies affected ...
