11 it out makes the low stuff you do want much more crisp and tasty . Not only that, but LOW CUT can help reduce the possibility of feed- back in live situations and it helps to conserve the amplifier power . Another way to consider LOW CUT ’s func- tion is that it actually adds flexibility during live performances.

23 Why? Y ou want the METERS to reflect what the engineer is listening to, and as we’ve cov- ered, the engineer is listening either to the CONTROL ROOM outputs or the PHONES outputs.
24 AUX 1 SELECT Besides being used to work effects into your mix, Aux Sends serve another critical role — that of delivering cue mixes to stage monitors, so musicians can hear what they’r e doing. On the 1402-VLZ PRO, AUX SEND 1 can play ei- ther role, depending on the position of this switch.
25 Signals passing through the AUX RETURN level controls will proceed directly to MAIN MIX , with one exception (see next para- graph). The AUX RETURNS do not have MUTE/AL T 3-4 switches, so if you wa.

28 SPECIFICA TIONS Mackie Designs is always striving to improve our mixers by incorporating new and improved materials, components and manufacturing methods. Because we’re always trying to make things better, we reserve the right to change these specifications at any time, without notice.
29 SER VICE INFO Details concerning W arranty Service are spelled out on the W arranty Card included with your mixer (if it’s missing, let us know and we’ll rush one to you). If you think your 1402-VLZ PRO has a prob- lem, please do everything you can to confirm it before calling for service.
30 APPENDIX A: CONNECTIONS plug is connected tip to left, ring to right and sleeve to ground (earth). Mackie mixers do not directly accept 1-plug-type ster eo microphones. They must be sepa- rated into a left cord and a right cord, which are plugged into the two mic preamps.
31 balanced ground (earth) will also be connected to the ground (earth) at the unbalanced input. If ther e are ground-loop problems, this connection may be left disconnected at the balanced end. • When connecting an unbalanced output to a balanced input, be sur e that the signal high (hot) connections are wir ed to each other .
32 Using the Send Only on an Insert Jack If you insert a TS (mono) 1 ⁄ 4 " plug only partially (to the first click) into a Mackie insert jack, the plug will not activate the jack switch and will not open the insert loop in the circuit (ther eby allowing the channel signal to continue on its merry way through the mixer).
