13 PHONES The PHONES 1 (16) and PHONES 2 (17) sec- tions are identical. Each contains a ster eo level control for the headphones outputs, a ster eo SOLO switch, and five pushbuttons to select from the following signal sources: MONITOR, MIX-B, AUX SENDS 3 & 4, AUX SENDS 5 & 6, and EXTERNAL.
14 Mic In The channel microphone input (1) is a stan- dard 3-pin female mic connector (call me Cannon or call me XLR, just don’t call me late for dinner). Pin one is ground, pin two is signal high (+), pin three is signal low (–), as per the (finally) agreed-upon international standard.
15 OUTPUT P ANEL The input and output jacks that cor- respond to most of the functions in the Output Panel are, logically , located in the jack panel directly above the Output Panel. The 8•Bus outputs to tape (and the inputs from tape) are located on the rear panel.

20 Do you need to read this section at all? Many of you reading this manual have a lot of experience in using large mixing consoles. For you battle-scarred pros, Section 2 and the Block Diagram will probably be all that you need to look at.

22 detent if you ar e unfamiliar with the bandwidth featur e. This setting will give you a semi-para- metric type of EQ. The 8•Bus console’s set of thr ee HI-MID con- trols (boost/cut, fr equency center and bandwidth) is VERY powerful in its effects.
23 The LO and HI sections of the EQ are shelv- ing equalizers, with a family of curves shown in Figur e 3. As you can see, shelving EQs lift or lower the entire range of fr equencies above or below a certain point. Most tone controls on stereos ar e shelving EQs, often set at 100Hz for the bass and 10kHz for the treble.
24 RECORDING OVER VIEW The recording process can be as simple as one microphone recorded on a monaural tape r e- corder . Not much advice needed for that. But since you’ve bought such a large mixing console, we expect you’ll occasionally be doing pretty big sessions.
25 right away so they can tune up and r ehearse, providing all your chosen tracks are in r ecord mode and auto-switching to input when tape is not rolling. Keeping the Phones on MIX-B may work for the entire session, but usually the musicians will want one or even two custom mixes.

28 Getting reverb into the monitors is a little more involved, since ther e is no r eturn assign- ment switch to MIX-B. Y ou have three choices: • Assign MIX-B to L/R Mix in the MIX-B master section. Then, select L/R Mix as your only source in the monitor section.

The Mackie 8 •Bus consoles can’t give you the infinite number of channels you dream of, unless you buy an infinite number of expander consoles, but you can very easily double the number of inputs by using the MIX-B buses.

39 One of Mackie Designs’ primary product phi- losophies is to make its mixers as multi-purpose as possible to make them more affordable. This sounds like a contradiction in terms, but it isn’t.

46 “ XLR ” CONNECTORS Mackie mixers use 3-pin female “XLR” connec- tors on all microphone inputs, with pin 1 wir ed to the grounded shield, pin 2 wired to the “hot” (positive polarity) side of the audio signal and pin 3 wired to the “cold” (negative polarity) side of the signal (Figure 7).

49 APPENDIX B: Options, Add-Ons and Extra Stuff OPTIONS Meter Bridge Y ou can order an optional Mackie meter bridge for any 8•Bus Series console. The meter bridge extends across the width of the mixer and pro- vides a 12-LED bar -graph meter (identical to the 8 submaster bus meters) for each channel strip.

52 IV . Mix-B Mute mod This modification converts the Mix-B Source switch to a Mix-B MUTE switch. The switch will no longer be able to source the channel signal. This modification must be done on each channel. For example, if you have a 24•8, the modification must be done on all 24 input channels.
