Introduction; Features; Package Includes - Phonic HELIX BOARD 12 Plus Manual Del Usuario

INTRODUCTION

Thank you purchasing the Helix Board 12 Plus, one of Phonic's
newest mixers that sounds great and works hard both in and out
of the studio. The mixer features a USB 2.0 interface that can
stream up to 10 independent channels of audio to the computer
and return two tracks for monitoring, all at screaming fast transfer
rates of up to 24-bit/192 kHz. An onboard 40-bit digital multi-effect
processor provides 100 popular programs plus tap delay, test-
tones and foot switch jacks.
There are 4 extremely low noise Mic preamps, each with phantom
power, spread across four mono channels and two stereo
channels, each featuring a 3-band EQ. Additional features include
two AUX sends, two stereo AUX returns, an extra ALT 3-4 stereo
mixing bus, Steinberg Cubase LE 4 digital audio workstation
software and an optional rack mounting kit.
We know how eager you are to get started – wanting to get the
mixer out and hook it up to your computer is probably your number
one priority right now – but before you do, we strongly urge you
to take a look through this manual. Inside, you will find important
instructions and warnings on the set up, use and applications of
your brand new mixer. If you do happen to be one of the many
people who flatly refuse to read user manuals, then we just urge
you to at least glance at the Instant Setup section. After glancing
at or reading through the manual (we applaud you if you do read
the manual in its entirety), please store it in a place that is easy for
you to find, because chances are there's something you missed
the first time around.
