Ross RCS-1602

Non-rack mountable mixer consists of:
16 channel mic / line
Two groups (right / left) with 70mm fader causing an amplification of 10db
A group "sum" (image of the sum of the two groups)
Output for the two main groups and XLR jacks
Output Jack symtriques for returns
Headphone output jack for the main / PFLs
Output "sum" in jack symtrique
Output Jack symtrique to send auxiliaries
Stereo Jack comes into the auxiliary return
Connections in / out RCA for connecting a magntophone
Possibility of a power supply 48V phantme (affect all channels when active)
Each track possde: between an XLR or Jack symtrique
an insert
a gain adjustable by potentiometer with a diode indicator peaks
3-band correction (fixed) over a range of plus or minus 12 db
2 auxiliary
Returns 1 output
With a switch to PFL tmoin
A balance (without compensation volumes)
A Master Fader 70mm without amplification gain
Assistants each have:
a gain of entrerglable
an adjustable output gain

Possibility of passing an auxiliary in Fader or Post Fader Pr through a jumper on the electronic map of the electronic band
Possibility to pass the returns or Post EQ EQ Pr through a jumper on the electronic map of the electronic band

UTILIZATION

Gnrale configuration is very simple because everything is accessible and visible from the first glance.
So the above, anything!

SOUNDS

It's an end table between ... So do not really expect luxury!
The console does not give any dynamics, for against the coloration is fairly neutral.

The corrections are effective, but could very focused on better frequencies (the type of filter is not precise enough)

The console introduced a lightweight white noise becomes non negligible high volume ... (Especially if presence effects in the auxiliary loops)

The fact that the lines do not allow an individual is an amplification of lments missing.

OVERALL OPINION

I have 10 years now and have never had a problem with.

I regret a little the quality of internal finish (electronic card increments sodas rapidly cards "twisted" to fit in the location because a little too large, etc.). Brief as reasons that may make problem (which I have still never had ... so no mdisances).

I particularly regret the absence of selector on the edge for prepost fader for an auxiliary, the absence of paramtrage prepost the fader for the auxiliary 2 and the absence of selecter on the edge for prepost EQ for returns. This causes a dis-assembly of the table involving mostly a fixed configuration ... So lack of flexibility ...

Should be reviewed by beach bars Decibel displays graphs of the main groups-(starts too high in db = you have to push the table to 0 db to see the bar graph indicate something useful)

J'apprcie, the simplicity of use, it provides troubleshooting.

For the era, I tried other models but much better without valid comparisons with price ranges, the choice of o ...

The report qualitprix parat me now means considering what comes out ... For the era, c'tait in the right price ... (4600 francs)

With experience, I would not take this as MODEL given the diversity of choices, progress and lower prices. And especially the loss of momentum is still not negligible.
