HELIX BOARD 12 FIREWIRE MKII
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the Helix Board 12
FireWire MKII, one of Phonic’s newest mixers
that sounds great and works hard both in and
out of the studio. The mixer features a FireWire
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/96 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 nd 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 atly 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 nd,
because chances are there’s something you
missed the rst time around.
