The liquid crystal display is manufactured with high-precision technology. However, some units may have pixels (up

to 4) that are continuously glowing or turned off. This is not a malfunction.

2. INSTALLATION

The EVO5 operates now with a new universal input power supply “Switching Power Supply” and can perfectly

works without any internal modification from 90V to 264V – 47 to 63Hz. Make sure that the mains-wire is far away

from the signal-cables in order to avoid any possible audio hum.

Because of the high gain of the PHONO and MICROPHONE inputs, always try to place the mixer as far away as

possible from noise sources (dimmers, engines, etc.) and mains wires. For the very same reason, and under any

circumstance, you should never remove the unit's metallic cover.

The power consumption of the EVO5 is very low, so they do not need any cooling, but you should avoid extreme

temperatures and the atmosphere should be as dry and dust free as possible.

In order to protect the unit from an eventual electrical overload it carries a T 1A fuse. Should it ever blow up, unplug

the unit from mains and replace it with an identical one. If the new fuse blows again contact immediately with our

authorized technical service.

ATTENTION: NEVER SHORT-CIRCUIT THE SECURITY PATH NOR USE A HIGHER VALUE FUSE.

CAUTION: Fuse substitutions have to be performed by a qualified technician.

3. FURTHER CONSIDERATIONS

Ground loops

Ensure at all times that no signal sources reaching the mixing desk and no devices connected to its output have

their earths interconnected; that is, earth should never reach them via two or more different paths, as this could

lead to humming which could even interfere with sound reproduction quality. In order to avoid earth loops, ensure

that the shielding of cables, if connected to the chassis, are never connected with each other.

Audio connections

As a general rule of thumb, make the signal connections as short as possible and use the best connectors and

cable available. Cables and connectors are frequently held cheap, forgetting that a bad connection can result in a

poor sound quality.

Cleaning

The front panel should not be cleaned with dissolvent or abrasive substances because silk-printing could be

damaged. To clean it, use a soft cloth slightly wet with water and neutral liquid soap; dry it with a clean cloth. Be

careful that water never gets into the unit through the holes of the front panel.

4. QUICK START

Congratulations, you have bought an original ECLER professional DJ mixer!

The EVO5 is an unique digital mixer with A/D and D/A converters at 24 bit/96KHz, internal

Firewire soundcard with 12 input channels and 12 output channels, a powerful,

completely programmable effects module, MIDI control with 69 controllers, 64 individual

parameter patterns and a full colour monitor from which you will be able to edit all of the

mixer's controls.

We suggest you to read the user manual before starting to use your EVO5. You will find

the guide on the included CD-ROM. If you prefer to read the manual later, you will find the

necessary information to easily set up and experiment with your EVO5 in this quick guide.

You can also visit our web site "http://www.eclerdjdivision.com", where you will find

additional information.

For the following procedure you will need a CD player and headphones. If you also wish

to experiment with the MIDI controller and the internal soundcard you will also need a

computer with firewire connection.

1. Set the controllers to their initial position.

Set the rotary controllers GAIN, HI, MID and LOW from channel 1 (5, 6, 7, 9) to the

central snap-in position. Put the channel fader (15) down and move the A/OFF/B switch

(14) to position A (this channel is now assigned to the crossfaders' A side).

2. Connect the headphones.

Connect your headphones to one of the outputs on the mixer's front panel (23). Set the

MONITOR LEVEL (22) to minimum and move the MONITOR SELECT control (21) to the

PFL position.

3. Connect a CD player.

Connect a CD player to LINE input on channel 1 (43), insert a CD and play the CD.

4. Connect the mixer's power cable.

Connect the power cable to power source input (55) on the mixer's back side and turn the

mixer on by pressing the MAINS INPUT switch (53).

5. Select the input source.

Make sure that the input source selector on channel 1 (3) is in LINE position and that the channel's VU-meter (8)

lightens up. If this does not happen make sure that CD player is correctly connected and that there is an audio

track being played back. You should also make sure that the tone and gain controls are in central position.

6. Adjust the input level.

Move the GAIN control until the VU-meter shows 0dB. Each channel's red overload LED OVL (2), lightens up if the

input level for this channel is to high and has to be diminished with the channel's GAIN controller.

7. Send the signal to the main output.

Set the fader on channel 1 (15) to maximum and place the crossfader (16) on side A.

8. Listen to the signal with your headphones.

Press the PFL button (10) on channel 1. Adjust the MONITOR LEVEL controller (22) to obtain a comfortable

monitoring volume. Now you should hear music with your headphones. Turn the MONITOR SELECT controller (21)

to the right to crossfade the PFL signal and the MIX signal. When this controller is completely turned to the right,

only the MIX signal will be monitored.

9. Try the operation of the tone controllers.

Experiment with this powerful 3-way stereo equaliser (6, 7, 9). This tone control has been designed for a creative

sound edition: each way can be individually isolated using the big and ergonomic rotary controllers.

10. Check the adjustment of the crossfader.

The channels 1 to 4 can be assigned to the crossfader (16) using the A/OFF/B selector. The crossfader allows you

to melt the signals that are assigned to both of its sides. With this selector in position A or B, you assign the

channel to one of both sides of the crossfader. The OFF position disables the crossfader's function on this channel.

11. Adjust the crossfader curve.

The XFADER SHAPE controller (19) allows a fine adjustment of the crossfader curve's slope. Setting this controller

all left, the signal is diminished when the crossfader reaches the central position, which allows mixing two songs

with a soft melting. The crossfader curve's slope increases if the controller is turned to the right. When is gets

completely turned to the right, the signal enters very fast with hardly a movement of the crossfader. This is very

useful for scratching.

12. Select an effect.

Hold the EFFECTS controller (33) pressed while

you press at the same time one of the six

shortcut controllers (34) located at both sides of

the display. The selected effect appears on

screen. If you wish to select more effects, hold

down the EFFECTS button and press the

encoder identified on screen as LOAD. A list

with up to 64 effects or personal combinations

appears. Select the one you want.

13. Enable an effect.

Turn the effects send potentiometer (11)

completely to the right. With this controller you

can set the amount of signal level you want to

send to the effects processor. Press the FX

SEND button on channel 1 (12) to enable the

signal send to the effects processor. Sending

can be activated independently for each channel

which makes sound edition more flexible. Now

press the LAUNCH button (39) and move the

DRY/WET (18) crossfader, which melts the

original signal (DRY) with the processed signal

(WET). If you want to monitor the effects signal,

press FX PFL (17) (even if you have not pressed

LAUNCH).

14. Adjust an effect.

Move the PARAM1 and PARAM2 controllers

(37, 38) to adjust the effects sound. The

parameters you are adjusting appear on screen.

If you wish to adjust any other parameter, press

the controller identified on screen as FX1/2 and

all parameters that can be adjusted in real-time

appear on screen. Adjust the effect using the

four encoders located below the display (36).

If you wish to get started using the MIDI control

and the internal soundcard, you will need a

computer with firewire connection and a DJ

software with MIDI capabilities. The EVO5

includes configuration presets to control

applications as Ableton's LIVE 6 and Native

Instruments' TRAKTOR 3. We suggest you to

download the demo versions of these

applications from the owner's website, if you do

not have any of this software.

15. Connect the mixer to the computer.

Together with the mixer, you will receive a

firewire cable (IEEE1394). Connect this cable to

the firewire port on your computer and to one of

the two firewire ports on the mixer (50). Through

this firewire cable, all audio and MIDI data is

sent between mixer and computer. It is not

necessary to use the MIDI OUT output.

16. Run the installation programme

The mixer is supplied with an installation CD-ROM and a FireWire cable. Before connecting the mixer to the

computer, run the "setup_evo5" file, which you will find on the CD-ROM. This will automatically install the mixer

drivers and the "EVO5 Firmware Upgrade" and "EVO5 Librarian" applications. Once the installation is completed,

connect the mixer to the computer in accordance with the following instructions. The EVO5 is compatible with

Windows® XP SP2, Vista and Macintosh® OSX v 10.X. operating systems.

Windows XP SP2

Once you connected the mixer to the computer, the message "New hardware found. Ecler EVO5" will pop up.

The new hardware found wizard will open. Select the option "No, not this time" and press "Next".

Select the "Install software automatically" option (recommended).

When the warning appears, press "Continue Anyway". Finish the installation.

A new pop-up informs you that the installation has been successfully completed.

If you want to make sure that the drivers are correctly installed, open the "Device Manager", where the mixer will

appear as "Ecler EVO5" in the chapter "Sound, video and game controllers".
