INTRODUCTION

The MR88 automatic microphone mixer incorporates advanced DSP

technology. It has been carefully designed to give outstanding performance

and flexibility while maintaining simplicity of set up and use. Eight input

channels, fully adjustable for microphone and line levels, can be set up to be

put onto either or both of the two output channels. Active input channels can

be automatically detected. Each input channel can be set to a multi-level

priority system. This allows "one at a time operation", "all channels active" or

combinations with chairman priorities. When no one is talking, a constant

ambient sound can be maintained through the system by setting the last

microphone selected to automatically stay on. Mixers may be chained

together to make a large multi-source system with priority and NOMA

information extending throughout. With two independent output channel

busses provided, the MR88 to be used as a genuine 8 X 2 mixer.

The input level control and priority system of this mixer makes it uniquely

versatile for many diverse applications. The MR88 mixer is ideal for places of

worship, courtroom proceedings, meetings, seminars and general A/V

applications.

The MR88 uses microprocessor control and provides full setup and control of

the mixer via a user-friendly LCD interface on the front panel. This allows the

mixer settings to be selected and adjusted without the need to remove the

case covers. All settings are retained, even when the mixer is disconnected

from the mains power supply. The mixer front panel can be easily 'locked'

with an adjustable four digit security code to prevent the mixer settings being

accidentally changed, or to 'tamper proof' the settings.

The MR88 also has the ability to be daisy chained with other MR88 mixers

via a link cable (available separately), to give a multi-mixer system.

1) External Control Connector. Provides access to the open-collector

outputs, the external control inputs, and the two VCA connections.

2) RS232 Connector. For control and setup of MR88 mixers. Control

extends through link connections to multiple mixers.

3) Link In/Out. Used for daisy chaining of multiple MR88 mixers when

more than 8 input channels are required. Uses standard RJ45 network

leads.

Changing Channels and Functions.

On power up, if the MR88 is not locked, the channel is set to Output A+B and

the function to Gain Channel A and B. Pressing the CHANNEL buttons move

forwards and backwards through Channels 1 to Channel 8, System and

Output A+B channels. The FUNCTION buttons move up or down through the

available functions for each channel.

Changing Values.

To change the values of each function, simply turn the Rotary Control to

display the desired value.

Page 10

Explanation of Functions

Output A+B Functions:

Output ChA and ChB Gain. Linked control of the output channels A and B

nominal gain.

When the >Function button is pressed the ChA gain flashes to indicate

independent setting of the output channel A nominal output gain.

When the >Function button is pressed again the ChB gain flashes to indicate

independent setting of the output channel B nominal output gain.

When the >Function button is pressed again the Channel A source flashes

to indicate which common bus the local output A should use as its source.

This can be set for Off, Bus X, Bus Y or Bus X and Bus Y

When the >Function button is pressed again the Channel B source flashes

to indicate which common bus the local output B should use as its source.

This can be set for Off, Bus X, Bus Y or Bus X and Bus Y

Functions of Channels 1 – 8:

Mono/Stereo

The MR88 can be set so that Channels 1 & 2, 3 & 4, 5 & 6, or 7 & 8 are

considered as a stereo pair. This reduces the number or setups required for

a stereo music source. Each stereo pair has only one setting for Input Level,

compression, EQ, Output, priority, gate attenuation, detector and hold time.

Gain adjustments for the Left and Right Channels can be linked or

independently set.

Line/Mic/Phantom

This sets the nominal input level to mic level + 48V phantom power, mic level

without phantom power or line level.

Gain Control - Pre-Amplifier

The MR88 has a substantial gain range, (-40 to +20dB) allowing the use of a

variety of microphones and line inputs. Generally, if the level has been set to

the correct type in the previous menu, only small changes should be

necessary. The LED meter displays the individual selected input channel

level, and the headphone monitor can be used to listen to the channel, so

that the gain can be set per channel, even when the channel is not

connected to the output. When set to stereo three functions allow the gain

adjustments for the Left and Right Channels to be linked or independently

set.
