4. QUICK START
Install and connect the NUO5 as described in the INSTALLATION paragraph nº1.
We will describe a “Quick Start” procedure using the H-LINE input of channel 1 and
headphone monitoring output only.
1
st
- Set the channel controls. Set Channel 1 GAIN, TREBLE, MID, BASS rotary controls
to their detented centre position. Set the BASS OFF switch to its up position (BASS ON).
Set the channel fader to its down position and assign the XFA/MIX/XFB selector to XFA
(your channel is assigned to crossfader A side).
2
nd
- Adjust the MONITOR VOL (20) to its minimum, and move the MONITOR PFL/MIX
(19) control to MIX position.
3
rd
- Switch ON the CD Player connected to the H-LINE input of channel 1.
4
th
- Connect a pair of headphones to the headphones Jack output (21).
5
th
- Connect the AC main power cord to the back of the mixer and switch ON the mixer.
6
th
- Check you have the channel 1 SP led (Signal Present) (3) lights. If the SP led is not
enlightened, please check the CD player is well connected, the input is well selected and
the Compact Disc is playing a music track.
7
th
- Press the yellow led button PFL (9) of channel 1 and adjust the left Vu-meter bar on
the 0dB led. The red PEAK led of each channel indicates your input level is too high
(+10dB) and must be reduced with the channel GAIN control.
8
th
- Set the channel fader (13) to its up position and place the crossfader (14) on the «A»
side.
9
th
- Adjust the MONITOR VOL (20) in order to reach a «comfort» sound level in your
headphones.
10
th
- Check the powerful 3 band stereo equalization (5-6-7). The EQ system is designed
for creative sound performance: each band can be independently isolated (OFF) through
a large ergonomic rotary control, and a BASS OFF switch allows a fast bass frequency
“kill” effect.
11
th
- Check the ETERNAL crossfader (14) adjustment.
Each channel can be assigned to the magnetic ETERNAL Crossfader using the
XFA/MIX/XFB selector. MIX position bypasses the crossfader function. The crossfader will
allow you to fade the signals assigned at each side A & B of the slider. The movement of
the crossfader allows you to create a smooth music track blend or a fast «scratch» sound
cuts. The fade curve can be very precisely adjusted thanks to the CUT-IN knob (fade-in
point), the CROSSMODE selector (Rounded or Squared curve), the REVERSE selector
(Reverse the sense of the crossfader) and SHAPE control (Curve slope).
12
th
- Perform some effects. Let’s start with the L.F.O effect. Press the FX SEND blue led
button of channel 1, place the EFFECT blue led on L.F.O. position and push the EFFECT
selector control, press the FX LAUNCH red light button and move the DRY/WET
crossfader to the right. You are now processing your original input with a Low Frequency
Oscillation effect. The DRY/WET crossfader allows you to fade between original signal
(DRY) and effect signal (WET). The TIME encoder control allows you to adjust the length
of the Low Frequency oscillation (synchronized to the BPM sequence of the music signal).
The PARAMETER encoder control allows you to change the oscillation amplitude
(maximum cut-off frequency from 100Hz (0%) to 12Hz (100%). TIME and PARAMETER
value are displayed in the led segment display.
For further operations, please read the rest of this manual.
