•REPLACING MAINS FUSE

Remove the mains lead from the connector. Use a small screwdriver

to unscrew the fuse carrier from its location to the left of the

mains power connector. Check the fuse is of the correct type and

value and replace if necessary; also check that the voltage rating

as marked on the rear panel is correct for the mains supply level

before switching the unit ON again.

If the mains fuse fails repeatedly this may be because an electrical

safety hazard exists. The unit must be taken out of service and

referred to the Soundcraft dealer from where the equipment was

purchased.

As the colours of the wires in the mains lead may not correspond

with the coloured markings identifying the terminals in your plug,

proceed as follows:

The wire which is coloured Green and Yellow must be connected

to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter E

or by the earth / ground symbol:

The wire which is coloured Blue or White must be connected

to the terminal in the plug which is marked with the letter N.

The wire which is coloured Brown or Black must be connected

The GigRac case.

Your GigRac is cased in a structural foam copolymer polypropylene resin,

which gives an optimum combination of strength and impact resistance.

This material also helps to keep the shell in good condition as it very

resistant to dents and scratches.

The nature of the moulding process leaves the irregular streaky surface

finish that gives the GigRac its tough and unique look.

2 x 500W @ 4 Ohms.

2 x 300W @ 8 Ohms.

Quick Start Guide

If like most people you can’t wait to use your GigRac for the first time,

then use the Quick Start Guide to get things started. The Quick Start

Guide covers the following:

1. Connecting up your loudspeakers to the GigRac

2. Plugging in a vocal microphone

3. Adding Treble, Mid or Bass to the signals

4. Plugging in a guitar or stereo keyboard

5. Apply one of the 10 GigFX digital effects to the signals

Note: We recommend that you read through the entire

GigRac user guide to familiarise yourself with all of the

features on offer.

Quick Start Guide Key

1. Connecting up your loudspeakers to the GigRac

Note: Make sure your GigRac is not powered up. This

is very important to prevent any damage to either the

GigRac or your loudspeakers!

Using good quality speaker cables connect the loudspeakers to the

Speaker outputs on the rear of the GigRac.

If you have cables equipped with Neutrik Speakon® connectors then use

the Speakon® connectors on the rear of the GigRac. Alternatively if

you have cables equipped with jack plugs then use the jack sockets on

the rear of the GigRac.

Make sure that the Main Master Volume control (1 - see the key on

page 9) and the Monitor (Mon) Master Volume control (2) are turned

fully down.

Decide if you want to configure the 2 internal amplifiers to work as a

stereo pair, or mono mix and monitor. Set the amplifier source select

switch (3) as desired. It is assumed in these quick start instructions

that you have configured the amps as a stereo pair.

Now switch the GigRac on using the Power switch on the rear of the

unit.

2. Plugging in a vocal microphone

Note: Before connecting a microphone to channels 1-4,

make sure that the 48V phantom power switch (4) is

switched off (The red LED should not be illuminated).

Connect the microphone cable to one of the first four inputs on the

front of the GigRac (5).

(The inputs on the GigRac can receive either 3-Pin XLR or standard

Jack connectors.)
