1 Quick Start Guide

If you can’t wait to get started…

The Alesis DEQ830 is a unique product, but its basic hookup and

operation are similar to other equalizers in most respects. If you're

experienced with signal processors, this chapter is a “shorthand”

guide for those who want to start using the DEQ830 right away. If

you have questions about any of the features, don’t worry – all the

details will be covered in later chapters.

f you're new to signal

rocessing, start with the

more detailed instructions for

hookup and operation found

in the next chapter.

Step 1: Hook it up to a mixer

The DEQ830’s power will

turn on automatically once its

C cable is plugged in, so be

sure to press the [POWER]

switch to turn the unit off

while you’re connecting it to

our other equipment.

1. Plug the POWER jack on the back of the DEQ830 into a

grounded AC power source with the supplied power cable.

2. Using high-quality cables, plug the left and right main outputs

of a non-powered mixer into the Channel 1 and Channel 2

inputs on the back of the DEQ830. You may connect up to

eight separate audio sources in the same manner.

3. Connect another pair of cables to the Channel 1 and Channel

2 outputs of the DEQ830 and plug them into your

amplification system or a pair of powered monitors.

4. Press the [POWER] switch on the front of the DEQ830 to

power up the unit.

When connecting the

EQ830 to other equipment,

make sure all gear has been

turned off. Also, to protect

our speakers, be certain

our amplifier(s) are turned

all the way down before

turning your equipment back

on.

5. You may want to link some of the channels together—

Channels 1 and 2, for example. That way you’ll hear the

changes you make with Channel 1 affect both channels of

the stereo signal at once. To do so, select Channel 1 by

pressing its [CHANNEL SELECT] button. Then hold

down the [LINK] button and press Channel 2’s

[CHANNEL SELECT] button at the same time. After this,

any EQ changes you make to Channel 1 will be reflected in

Channel 2. You may link up to eight channels together using

this method.
