CHANNEL FEATURES

1. EQ: Boosts or cuts the respective frequencies for

each channel. When recording via Firewire, the

EQ settings ARE recorded.

2. AUX A: Routes channel signal to an external

device like an effects processor. (PRE or POST

fader depending on switch position.

3. AUX B: Controls level routed to internal effects

processor or routes channel signal to an external

device like an effects processor.

When recording via Firewire, the AUX A and B

signals are NOT recorded on the individual

channels. They ARE recorded via the MAIN

MIX channels.

4. PAN/BALANCE: Assigns the channel signal to

any spot in the mono or stereo spectrum.

When recording via Firewire, the MONO

channels’ pan position is ignored when recording

the individual channel but is captured when

recording the MAIN MIX channels. The

STEREO channels’ balance is captured by both

the individual channel and the MAIN MIX

channels.

5. PFL/SOLO: Allows the channel signal to be

heard before being affected by the fader.

6. MUTE/ALT 3/4: Mutes the channel signal

heard in the MAIN OUTPUT and routes the

signal to the ALT 3/4 OUTPUT.

These settings are ignored by the Firewire

individual channel outputs.

7. CHANNEL FADER: Controls the MAIN

OUT (analog) and Firewire (digital) signal level

of the MIC or LINE inputs.

S/PDIF CABLE: We recommend that you use a cable

that is specifically designed to carry a digital signal and

does not exceed 5 meters (16.4 ft) in length.

* Use only high quality cables for digital transfers*

RECORDING VIA FIREWIRE

1. INSTALL THE SOFTWARE ON YOUR COMPUTER

If your computer has access to the Internet, point your browser to the Support > Downloads section of http://www.alesis.com. It’s

possible that updated drivers have been posted there since the time the software CD included with your MultiMix was printed.

Using either drivers from the website or the software CD, connect your MultiMix FireWire to your computer and turn the MultiMix

FireWire on.

Windows

Under Windows XP, the “Found New Hardware” wizard will run. You will be prompted to install a series of drivers.

If you downloaded the drivers from the Internet, choose to install the drivers from a specific location when prompted, and point to

the folder that contains the drivers.

If you are using the drivers from the CD, choose to install the drivers automatically when prompted.

For each of the several installations that occur, click “Continue Anyway” if Windows warns you that the drivers have not passed

Microsoft Logo Certification.

Windows Logo Certification warning.

Ignore this warning by clicking “Continue Anyway.”

Continue installing the various sets of drivers until the you receive a message that “Your new hardware is installed and ready to use.”

Do not cancel any of the installations, as they are all required for proper operation.

Macintosh

Mac driver installation is more straightforward, as only CoreAudio drivers are installed. Simply double-click the installer program to

install the drivers.

Mac OS 10.3 or higher is required by the MultiMix drivers.

2. CONNECT THE MULTIMIX FIREWIRE TO THE COMPUTER

•Connect your microphones and line-level sources to the MultiMix FireWire

•Connect your output devices - headphones or speakers, or both - to the MultiMix FireWire. Turn their volume down to zero

•Turn on the MultiMix FireWire

•Connect the Firewire cable to both the MultiMix FireWire and your computer

•Turn your computer on

NOTE: If your computer "hangs" when following this procedure, turn off both the mixer and the computer. Try turning on the

computer first. Turn on the MultiMix FireWire only after your computer has completely booted up.

3. START YOUR COMPUTER’S AUDIO RECORDING APPLICATION

•Within the recording application, select the MultiMix FireWire as the recording and playback device

•Adjust the MultiMix FireWire's sample rate (44.1kHz or 48kHz) and buffer sizes as appropriate

•Assign one or more MultiMix FireWire inputs and begin recording

•Raise or lower the trim knobs and volume sliders on the MultiMix FireWire to achieve a strong signal which

does not distort (clip)

•Use the equalizer to sculpt the sound

•To record the signal along with the built-in effects or AUX bus effects, record the master fader signal.

Individual channel signals include EQ but do not include effects

•On the MultiMix FireWire, assign the “2-TK” output from the computer to the monitor mix

•Raise the monitoring level (headphones or monitor speakers) on the MultiMix FireWire to listen back

See the Reference Manual for additional details.
