Gradually increase the UHF VOL A and B controls, testing each microphone in turn for output
through the speakers.
The UHF microphone volumes are not affected by the main volume control on the rear panel.
Take care not to incur “feedback” (howling or screeching sound through the speaker) by
keeping the microphone a sensible distance from each speaker and pointing away from the
speakers so that it doesn’t
hear
its own output.
Between the 2 UHF volume controls is a rotary labelled “Contour” (17), which adjusts the mid-
focus of the UHF microphones’ tone character. Adjusting from Low to High settings varies the
prominence of UHF microphones output in the mix and is best adjusted with experimentation.
Turning the ECHO control (5) clockwise introduces a preset echo for singing and special effects.
If required, the music level can be automatically muted when speaking into a mic by switching
the VCV on (16).
When not in use, switch the wireless microphones off and remove the batteries if storing the
microphones for long periods.
External Inputs
In addition to the PAV8-UHF’s own UHF microphones, two 6.3mm jack inputs (19, 20) are
provided for connecting external wired or wireless microphones, which are both governed by
the MIC VOL control (6). For guitarists, MIC 1 input can accept a guitar input instead of a mic.
A 3.5mm stereo jack (21) and twin RCA inputs (22) are provided for an Auxiliary line input
source such as a CD player or smartphone. The AUX input is governed by the main VOLUME
control at the top of the panel.
BASS EQ (14) adjusts the overall low frequency content, which can be cut by turning the
control anti-clockwise or boosted by turning the control clockwise.
TREBLE EQ (4) adjusts the overall high frequency content, which can be cut by turning the
control anti-clockwise or boosted by turning the control clockwise.
Below the twin RCA input is a twin RCA line output (9) carrying the overall main mix. This can
be fed on to further active speakers or portable PA units via a twin RCA lead.
