SERVICE
Make sure to save your sales receipt. It’s
useful in establishing when you bought the
mixer and for insurance purposes if some-
one happens to borrow your entire studio
while you are on vacation in Mazatlan.
TROUBLESHOOTING
We haven’t included a gigantic trouble-
shooting chart with circles and arrows and
captions on the back because our Service
Department and support persons are here to
handle that sort of thing. Still, there are
some simple tests you can make before you
call to determine if your MS 1202 is really
the culprit. This saves time all around and
prevents you from feeling sheepish when it
turns out that it’s really your Blort-Tronics
Sonic Defrabulator that’s creating the prob-
lem, and not our mixer.
Problem: Dead Input
Are the gain controls turned up? (Honest,
this happens.)
Unplug all Channel Insert hook-ups.
Try the same instrument and cord in
another channel.
Problem: Dead Output
Are the gain controls turned up?
Unplug all Channel Insert hook-ups from
the mixer.
Switch output cords. For example, if the
left output is dead, switch the left and right
output cords at the mixer. If the problem
moves to the right, it’s not the mixer.
Problem: Noisy Output
Turn all gain knobs and AUX returns
down. If the noise goes away, bring levels
back up one at a time, checking for noise at
each step.
Unplug everything except the output
where the noise was detected. If the noise
goes away, plug everything back in one at a
time, checking for noise at each connection.
Problem: No Power
Check the MS 1202 fuse (see page 7).
