[. . . ] WARRANTY EXPLANATION Rane offers a limited warranty which covers both parts and labor necessary to repair any defects in the manufacturing of the MM 12. The warranty period for the MM 12 is two (2) years, and is determined from either of these two methods, whichever is longer: l. Starting from the date of retail purchase as noted on either the sales slip from an authorized Rane dealer, or on the warranty registration card sent in to the factory, or: 2. Starting from the date of manufacture which is coded on both the inside and outside of the MM 12 chassis, in case the sales slip or warranty card is not available. If you send in the registration card or retain your sales slip as proof of purchase, you will receive a full two (2) year warranty period from the date of purchase regardless of the date of manufacture. [. . . ] Use a snake consisting of six shielded pairs, and be sure that the inputs to the monitor amp rack are BALANCED. Using a STEREO 1/4" patch cord, connect the headphone output of the main mixer to the MAINS INPUT of the headphone section on the MM 12. DIAGRAM IIl-2. Stage Location of the MM 12 for Dedicated Monitor Mix Operator 1. Run a short snake from a stage box to the inputs of the MM 12; this snake need only be long enough to reach from center stage to the MM 12 location, but is is wise to make it long enough to run it along the edge of the stage out of the way--a 25 foot length would be a minimum. This snake should have the same number of pairs (inputs) as the main snake, with all lines BALANCED. Connect the main snake into the system in one of the two following ways. To keep the total numbers of cables and connectors to a minimum, modify the main snake in the following manner: a. Unsolder the main snake cable from the connectors inside the stage box: be sure to label each of the shielded pairs as to which channel it belongs and which colors are connected to which pins. Remove the snake cable from the stage box entirely; you might want to use the stage box for the short snake described in #l above. Strip about 18" of the outer sleeve insulation from the end of the snake cable. Separate each set of shielded pairs and install about 17" of heat shrink tubing over each pair, so that you have 12 or 16 shielded lines emerging from the snake end. Securely tape the area where the outer sleeve ends and all the heat-shrinked lines converge. Now solder a male three-pin connector to each of the shielded pairs, making sure that the colors match the proper pins and channels are numbered as recorded in Step a. ) above. Now you can plug the end of the main snake directly into the PATCH OUTPUTS of the MM 12. if you do not want to modify the main snake, make up to 12 or 16 cables using shielded two-conductor mike cable and a male three-pin connector on one end and a female three-pin on the other end. Use these to connect the stage box of the main snake to the PATCH OUTPUTS of the MM 12. If you are running more than 12 channels through the main board, bypass the MM 12 with the channels that need not be in the monitor system, such as guitars or bass which have their own instrument amps on stage. Connect the OUTPUTS of the MM 12 to the inputs of the monitor amplifiers--balanced lines are recommended if this run is more than six feet or so. IV-l. The MM 12 has 12 inputs but only 8 monitor mix level controls above each output master level. The reason for this is to simplify monitor mixing by doing some clever sub-mixing on the inputs. Most groups possess at least one individual who plays more than one instrument (albeit never at the same time. . . ), such as a keyboard player, drummer, lead guitarist with 4 axes, etc. For example, the large MASTER LEVEL control of output channel #1 sets the overall volume in #1 monitor speaker. The eight MIX LEVEL controls above it determine the specific mix of vocals and instruments (from the MM 12 inputs) to be heard in monitor speaker #1. [. . . ] By doing this, the SEND and RETURN in the MM 12 LOOP jack will remain connected when this special cable is inserted. NOTE: If a mono patch cable or un-modified stereo patch cable is plugged into the LOOP jack on any input, the SEND/RETURN link will be interrupted and that channel will no longer be present in the output mixes. Plug one end of your modified cable into the MAINS input on the MM 12 headphone section: then plug the other end into any of the input LOOP jacks to listen to the input program without interrupting monitor mix content. BEWARE: The MM 12 has a powerful headphone amplifier--keep the headphone volume control turned down before plugging into the LOOP jacks. [. . . ]
