Congratulations on your purchase of the Radial Submix, an innovative 500 series module

that lets you mix 4 line level sources such as keyboards, drum machines, effects returns,

computers and just about any other audio source together inside any 500 series rack.

Should you ﬁnd yourself asking a question that is not addressed, we invite you to view the

Submix FAQ page on our web site. This is where we post the latest hints and of course

questions from users. If you still do not ﬁnd what you are looking for, feel free to send an

email to [email protected] and we will do our very best to respond to you in short order.

Nowget ready tostart connecting morecables and wires...cause this iswhat audio engineers

love to do most!

WARNING NOTICE TO USER!

Although preventative safety measures have been designed into Radial 500 series

products we strictly advise against hot swapping modules or plugging and

unplugging them when the Workhorse or other 500 series rack is powered on. Hot

swapping can cause connection sparks at the card-edge connector that could send

damaging transients to other equipment. This also greatly reduces the life span of the

contacts. Damage due to hot swapping is not covered under warranty. There are no

user serviceable parts inside.

OVERVIEW

The Submix is a four input, one output mixer (4x1) in a single card slot module designed to ﬁt

the 500 series format. It follows convention with the 15-pin edge connector so that it works in

all 500 series power racks. Each of the front panel ¼” inputs are designed to accommodate

all types of unbalanced line level signals. Examples include instruments such as keyboards,

samplers and electronic drums, plus line-level sources such as tape machines, effects

returns, CD players, iPods, and computer audio outputs. These are then quickly mixed using

the four front panel control knobs.

Typical 4x1 line mixer setup.

FEATURE SET

1. LEVEL 1 thru 4: Accustate input control,

simultaneously adjusts the sensitivity

and gain for maximum signal to noise.

Use to adjust input levels for each of the

four channels.

2. CHANNEL ID: Easy to read input

channel identiﬁcation improves workﬂow

efﬁciency in the studio.

3. POWER: LED indicator illuminates when

the module is energized by the power

rack.

4. INPUTS: Four separate ¼” inputs to

connect keyboards, drum machines,

effects returns and other unbalanced line

level sources.

5. XLR OUT: The Submix routes the 4

channel mix to the XLR output on your

500 series power rack.

6. OMNIPORT: Designated as a virtual-

earth mix-buss input, enables multiple

Submix modules to be used together

when used with a Workhorse to create

8x1, 12x1 or larger mixers.

GETTING STARTED

Although the Submix is extremely easy to use, we suggest you follow these simple

instructions before using it. As with all audio equipment, always ensure all levels are turned

down and equipment is turned off before making any connections or inserting the Submix into

a 500 series power rack. This common practice ensures turn-on transients will not damage

more sensitive components such as tweeters. Screw the module in to ensure it does not

accidentally get dislodged.

Making connections

Four high-impedance ¼” inputs on the front panel correspond to the four level controls. Line-

level sources connect to the inputs using standard instrument cables. Mixer channel-1 can

also accept a balanced line signal via the rear panel XLR input jack. However, the front jack

has priority over the rear and inserting a plug into the front channel-1 ¼” input will defeat the

rear XLR input. To use the rear XLR input, ensure the front input is not connected.

The Submix uses the rear panel XLR output for the master mix output. This balanced

line-level signal connects to your recorder or mixing console or to more 500 series signal

processors like the Radial Komit compressor. If you are using the Submix in a Workhorse

power rack, the FEED function can automatically route the output to the adjacent module.

Omniport

If you are using the Submix in a

Radial Workhorse power rack the

Omniport feature will be available.

In this instance with the Submix, the

Omniport acts as a mixer expansion

buss allowing additional Submix

modules to link together to form

larger conﬁgurations like 8x1, 12x1,

etc. The easiest way to connect

Submix modules would be with a

standard ¼” patch cable from the

ﬁrst module’s output to the second

module’s Omniport jack.

USING THE SUBMIX IN MONO

Using the Submix will be mostly the same no matter what source is connected so we have

decided to use keyboards as the source to explain the functionality. Start by connecting the

output from your ﬁrst keyboard to input-1 on the Submix. You will note that the noise level will

remain low at all levels. The Submix employs Radial’s unique VaryState™ gain control that

actually changes the sensitivity along with the gain. Set the level control completely counter-

clockwise or off to start. Connect the output from the rear panel of your 500 series power rack

to your recording system. Start playing increase the level slowly until you reach a comfortable

listening level. Repeat for input-2.

COMBINING SUBMIX MODULES TOGETHER FOR MORE CHANNELS

If you are equipped with a Radial Workhorse power rack, you can combine two or more

Submix modules together to create larger mixers. Simply connect the TRS output from the

ﬁrst unit and plug it into the Omniport and the signal will automatically appear on the output

buss to create an 8x1 mixer.Adding a third Submix will give you a 12x1 mixer. Combine these

with a Workhorse Powerstrip, to can create a super compact 12x1 stage mixer!

COMBINING SUBMIX MODULES TOGETHER FOR STEREO

With two Submix modules, you can create a stereo setup by assigning the ﬁrst Submix to left

and the second Submix to right. When connecting, simply split the stereo signals to follow

suit and you are set to go. This can provide your studio with a very efﬁcient way of managing

stereo sources such as playback tracks for overdubbing, mixing four stereo keyboards, or

even be used to sum effects or channels together.
