CFX SERIES 12-, 16-, and 20-Channel Mic/Line Mixers Introduction pact mixers, each having a stereo graphic equalizer and digital effects built in. The EMACTM 32-bit digital effects processor was custom designed by our digital engineers and rivals the sound of many high-quality outboard processors. Like all Mackie mixers, the CFX Series mixers are designed for rugged, day-in and day-out road use. Their sturdy-yet-light steel monocoque construction houses rugged, double-sided SMT-plated fiberglass circuit boards, and 60 mm faders with ultra-tight lip seals for keeping out dust and other contaminants. Impactresistant knobs are mounted so they "ride" just above the steel chassis­­they absorb impact without trouble. Furthermore, they're designed to last, thanks to co-molded potentiometers that do not get brittle and crack up. Metal stand-offs are used at regular intervals to mount thick fiberglass circuit boards inside the mixer. These are extremely flexible mixers, not only because of their multiple input/output configurations, but also because of their 4 subgroups, 9-band graphic EQ, and built-in digital effects. The CFX·12 has eight mic/line channels and two stereo line input channels, the CFX·16 has 12 mic/line channels and two stereo line input channels, and the CFX·20 has 16 mic/line channels and two stereo line input channels. All mic/line channels have unbalanced inserts. Each channel strip has one external and one internal/external effects send plus two aux sends, pan, mute, solo (PFL), bus assigns, and 60 mm log-taper fader. The mic/line channels also have input trim controls with individual Zero Level LEDs, 3-band EQ with swept midrange, and 100 Hz low cut filters. Two separate stage monitor mixes can be created with their own effects levels. The CFX Series is a true 4-bus mixer, with four sub bus faders and master ganged Left/Right fader. Outputs include XLR and TRS balanced/unbalanced main outputs, a 75 Hz low-pass subwoofer XLR output, extra TRS (continued on page 3) Features High headroom mic preamps CFX·12 channels (8 mic/line mono, 2 stereo line) CFX·16 channels (12 mic/line mono, 2 stereo line) CFX·20 channels (16 mic/line mono, 2 stereo line) 32-bit EMAC digital effects External and internal EFX sends EFX to Monitor control 9-band stereo graphic equalizer Inserts on all mic channels and main mix True 4-bus design with direct sub outs and L/R assign 2 Pre/Post aux sends and internal/external FX level sends 3-band EQ with swept mid (100 Hz to 8 kHz) on mic/line 4-band EQ on stereo line channels Pan, Mute, PFL solo on each channel 100 Hz low-cut filters on all mic/line channels Subwoofer output from built-in 18 dB/octave, 75 Hz crossover Break switch mutes all channels Headphone output with level control Tape/CD inputs with level control assignable to Main Mix via Break switch Logarithmic taper 60 mm faders 48 V phantom power 12 V BNC lamp jack R E LA TE D PR O D U C TS SRM350/SRM450 Active Loudspeaker, SR1530 Threeway Active Loudspeaker, SWA 1501 and SWA 1801 Active Subwoofers, M·800, M·1400, M·1400i Power Amplifiers, C200/C300z Passive 2-Way Loudspeakers Applications Live sound mixing for churches, clubs, schools, conference centers, tradeshows, presentations Keyboard, drum machine, and DJ mixing A/V presentations, multimedia 1 OF 8 PAGES CFX Series The CFXTM Series mixers are comprised of three com- MIXERS CFXTM Series MIXERS CFX Series Specifications Frequency Response: 32 Hz to 20 kHz CFX SERIES 12-, 16-, and 20-Channel Mic/Line Mixers Maximum Voltage Gain: Mic Input to Insert Output 50 dB Tape Output 66 dB Sub Output 66 dB Main Output 76 dB Aux Send 71 dB Line Input to Insert Output 30 dB Tape Output 46 dB Sub Output 46 dB Main Output 56 dB Aux Send 51 dB Stereo Line Input to Tape Output 40 dB Sub Output 40 dB Main Output 50 dB Aux Send 45 dB Tape Input to Main Output 30 dB Effects Return to Main Output 30 dB Input Impedance Mic Input: 3 k, balanced Line Input: 40 k, balanced Insert Return, Stereo Line Input, Tape Input, and Effects Returns: 10 k, unbalanced Output Impedance Main Output, Insert Output, Tape Output, Sub Output, and Effects Sends: 150 Digital Effects Resolution: 32-bit EMAC processing, 2-channel Number of Presets: 16 Parameters: 2 controllable Channel Level Set LED (Sensitivity): 0 dBu (normal operating level) VU Meters Main L/R 12 Segments: +0, ­1 dB CFX Series Distortion: THD and SMPTE IMD; 20 Hz to 20 kHz Mic Input to Main Output < 0.05% @ +4 dBu output Noise: 20 Hz to 20 kHz (150 Ohms source impedance) Equivalent Input Noise (EIN) ­127 dBU Residual Output Noise Main, Monitor, & Effects outputs Channel & Master levels off ­95 dBU Common Mode Rejection Ratio (CMRR): @1 kHz, Trim @ 0 dB Crosstalk: Adjacent Inputs or Input to Output Fader Off Mute Switch and Break Switch Mute Input Level Trim Control Range: +6 to ­50 dB Phantom Power: +48 VDC Equalization Low Cut: Mono Channel EQ: High Mid Low Stereo Channel EQ: High High Mid Low Mid Low 100 Hz, ­18 dB/octave +15 dB @ 12 kHz +15 dB @ 100 Hz to 8 kHz +15 dB @ 80 Hz +15 dB @ 12 kHz +15 dB @ 100 Hz to 3 kHz +15 dB @ 400 Hz +15 dB @ 80 Hz 60 dB ­90 dB @ 1 kHz ­90 dB @ 1 kHz ­80 dB @ 1 kHz Clip, +10, +7, +4, +2, 0, ­2, ­4, ­7, ­10, ­20, ­30 4.6" (117 mm) 17.2" (437 mm) 15.7" (399 mm) 5.0" (127 mm) 17.8 lbs.

The EMAC Digital Effects section includes four controls at the top. EFX 2 regulates the signal level being sent to the EMAC effects processor from an individual channels strip's EFX 2 aux send. The overall level is monitored by the CLIP LED to prevent overload. TO MAIN MIX controls the amount of effects sent to your main mix. The two EFFECTS TO MONITOR knobs let you add effects to stage monitor mixes independently of the EFX levels added to the main mix. Below the level controls is the preset selector for picking which effect you want. The characteristics of these presets can be changed with the TIME/RATE and DAMPING/DEPTH knobs. Between these controls are a BYPASS SWITCH and an EFX WIDE control. Wide adds psychoacoustic "width" or "depth" to all effects except delay and phaser. The Stereo Graphic Equalizer is nine bands with +15 dB of gain and centers at 63 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz, and 16 kHz. This EQ is exceptionally low-noise, low-distortion, and free of phase distortion. Trim Controls have 50 dB of mic gain, +30 dB of line-level gain, and a full 15 dB of attenuation to "pad" hot signals. Each channel also includes a Zero Level Set LED for easy level setting. All mic channels have a 100 Hz low cut filter to reduce stage vibration, mic stand rumble, and wind noise. Each channel includes a Pre-Fader Solo switch. Channel EQs are as follows: 12 kHz shelving HIGH frequency EQ, sweepable peaking Midrange EQ (only on mono input channels), with a 100 Hz to 8 kHz bandwidth. Stereo channels employ a 2-stage fixed-frequency MID EQ, HI-MID is centered at 3 kHz; LOW-MID is centered at 400 Hz; and a LOW EQ that is shelved at 80 Hz. Log-taper 60 mm faders deliver a consistent fade throughout the fader's throw. These faders have a co-polymer membrane that provides a continuously sealed barrier against dust and liquids without interfering with fader travel. Similarly, the fader's longwearing contact material (first designed for use in exterior automotive sensors) means longer fader life and improved resistance to the elements. The CFX Series mixers are designed for continuous, hassle-free use in any sound reinforcement installation. And they're packed with useful features and practical routing capabilities. Simply stated, these mixers offer more features, more peace of mind, and more possibilities than any other mixers in their class. And they're Mackies. 21.4"/ 544mm 17.2"/437mm 16.2"/412mm 3 OF 8 PAGES SOLO SOLO CONTROL AUX 2 AUX 1 SUB 2 SUB 3 EFX 2 EFX 1 SUB 1 SUB 4 LEFT MAIN SUB 1 OUT +48 VDC LEFT ASSIGN PHANTOM POWER TRIM MAIN INSERT TAPE OUT LEFT BREAK INSERT SUB 2 OUT SOLO RIGHT ASSIGN LEVEL SET 1 2 LOW CUT MUTE LO MID FREQ HI 1-2 LEFT ASSIGN PAN RIGHT MAIN 80 63 125 250500 1K 2K 4K 8K 16K 12K FADER 2 3 100 Hz HPF 3-4 TAPE IN LEFT 1 3 MAIN OUT LEFT MAIN LEVEL CFX Series PRE-P0ST AUX 1 SUB 3 OUT RIGHT ASSIGN CFX Series Block Diagram MIC/LINE IN MONO CHANNELS AUX 2 TAPE LEVEL LEFT ASSIGN EFX 1 EFX 2 TAPE IN RIGHT 75 Hz LPF SUBWOOFER OUT 2 1 3 SOLO SUB 4 OUT RIGHT ASSIGN MAIN INSERT MAIN LEVEL LO MID MID HI BREAK 63 125 250500 1K 2K 4K 8K 16K LEFT ASSIGN 2 1 3 LEFT MUTE 80 800 3K PAN MAIN 1-2 12K MAIN OUT RIGHT 3-4 TAPE OUT RIGHT LINE IN STEREO CHANNELS RIGHT ASSIGN TRIM LO MID MID HI RIGHT AUX 1 PRE/POST AUX 2 EFX RETURN 1 80 800 3K 12K STEREO EFX RETURN 1 LEFT PFL SIGNAL TO PHONES EFX 1 STEREO EFX RETURN 1 RIGHT RUDE SOLO LIGHT UTILITY OUT LEFT EFX 2 +5 VDC UTILITY LEVEL FROM EFX TO MAIN MIX EFX SEND 2 STEREO EFX RETURN 2 LEFT EFX BYPASS SOLO OFF SOLO CONTROL (ACTIVE LOW) SOLO ON PFL UTILITY OUT RIGHT EFX LEVEL SET EFX TO MAIN MIX +5 VDC TO LEFT MAIN L PHONES EFX SEND 2 EFX TO AUX 1 EFX SELECT STEREO EFX RETURN 2 RIGHT PHONES LEVEL AUX SEND 1 TIME/RATE EFX TO AUX 2 TO RIGHT MAIN R AUX SEND 1 AUX SEND 2 PFL SIGNAL TO LEFT METER CFX SERIES 12-, 16-, and 20-Channel Mic/Line Mixers 4 EFX FOOT SWITCH DAMPING/DEPTH EMAC DSP EFX WIDE AUX SEND 2 EFX SEND 1 SOLO OFF 22 10 7 4 2 0 2 4 7 10 20 30 EFX BYPASS EFX SEND 1 SOLO CONTROL (ACTIVE LOW) SOLO ON OF 8 PAGES MACKIE DESIGNS CFX SERIES BLOCK DIAGRAM (#62399CJM/DF) CFX Series MIC 1 CFX SERIES 12-, 16-, and 20-Channel Mic/Line Mixers MIC 6 MIC 2 MIC 3 MIC 4 MIC 5 MIC 7 MIC 8 L STEREO EFX RETURN EFX SEND 1 R 1 L R TAPE TAPE INPUT OUTPUT MAIN INSERT MAIN OUT MAIN OUT L L R L L R 12V 0.5A LAMP 2 BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL BAL/UNBAL 2 R 1 1 3 R EFX (MONO) LINE IN LINE IN LINE IN LINE IN LINE IN LINE IN LINE IN LINE IN (MONO) 9 LEFT RIGHT 11 LEFT RIGHT L 2 2 4 S SUB OUT 75Hz SUB OUT FOOT SWITCH INSERT INSERT INSERT INSERT INSERT INSERT INSERT INSERT 10 12 R UTILITY OUT AUX SEND PHONES U IC GAIN M 1 ZERO U IC GAIN M 2 ZERO U IC GAIN M 3 ZERO U IC GAIN M 4 ZERO U IC GAIN M 5 ZERO U IC GAIN M 6 ZERO U IC GAIN M 7 ZERO U IC GAIN M 8 ZERO U 9 10 -20 U 11 12 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB TRIM 6 +50 LEVEL -15dB +30dB -20 +20 +20 TRIM TRIM TRIM LOW CUT 100 Hz U LOW CUT 100 Hz LOW CUT 100 Hz LOW CUT 100 Hz LOW CUT 100 Hz LOW CUT 100 Hz LOW CUT 100 Hz LOW CUT 100 Hz MASTER SEND AUX U 15 10 5 0 5 10 15 10 5 0 5 10 15 63 125 250 500 1K 2K 4K 8K 16K AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX U AUX 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O 1 O O +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U +15 U 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 2 O O 15 +15 U +15 +15 +15 +15 +15 +15 +15 U +15 U +15 +15 PRE FADER EFX (EXT) O O PRE FADER U PRE FADER U EFX (EXT) PRE FADER U EFX (EXT) PRE FADER U EFX (EXT) PRE FADER U EFX (EXT) PRE FADER U EFX (EXT) PRE FADER PRE FADER PRE FADER U U EFX (EXT) STEREO GRAPHIC EQ 1 1 1 1 1 1 EFX (EXT) O O 1 EFX (EXT) O O 1 EFX (EXT) O O 1 EFX (EXT) O O 1 1 +15 U O O +15 U O O +15 U O O +15 U O O +15 U O O +15 U +15 U +15 U EFX (INT) +15 U EFX (INT) +15 U EFX (INT) O O +15 12 CHANNEL COMPACT INTEGRATED LIVE SOUND MIXER PHANTOM POWER ...
