We realize that you must be dying to try out
your new 1202-VLZ PRO. Or you might be one of
those people who never read manuals. Either
way, all we ask is that you read this page NOW,
and the rest can wait until you're good and ready.
But do read it -- you'll be glad you did.
Other Nuggets of Wisdom
For optimum sonic performance, the channel
GAIN knobs and the MAIN MIX knob should be
set near the "
U" (unity gain) markings.
Always turn the
MAIN MIX and CONTROL
ROOM/SUBMIX level controls down before
making connections to and from your
1202-VLZ PRO.
If you shut down your equipment, turn off
your amplifier(s) first. When powering up, turn
on your amplifier(s) last.
Save the shipping box! You may need it
someday, and you don't want to have to pay for
another one.
INSTANT MIXING
Here's how to get going
right away, assuming you own a
microphone and a keyboard:
1. Plug your microphone into channel
1's MIC
input.
2. Turn on the 1202-VLZ PRO.
3. Perform the Level-Setting Procedure
.
4. Connect cords from the
MAIN OUTS(XLR,1/4"or
RCA, your choice) to your amplifier.
5. Hook up speakers to the amp and turn it on.
6. Turn up the 1202-VLZ PRO's channel
1 GAIN
knob to the center detent and the
MAIN MIX
knob one quarter of the way up.
7. Sing like a canary!
8. Plug your keyboard into stereo channel
5-6.
9. Turn that channel's
GAIN knob to the center
detent.
10. Play like a madman and sing like a canary!
It's your first mix!

future reference (i.e. insurance claims,
tech support, return authorization, etc.):
LEVEL-SETTING PROCEDURE
Message to seasoned pros: do not set
levels using the old "Turn the trim up until
the clip light comes on, then back off a
hair" trick. When a Mackie Designs mixer
clip light comes on, you really are about to
clip. We worked and slaved to come up
with a better system, one that provides low
noise and high headroom.
Adjusting input levels (Chs. 14 only)
On the first four channels, it's not even
necessary to hear what you're doing to set
optimal levels. But if you'd like to: Plug
headphones into the
PHONES jack, then
set the
CONTROL ROOM/SUBMIX knob
about one-quarter of the way up.
The following steps must be performed
one channel at a time:
1. Turn the
TRIM, GAIN and AUX send
knobs fully down (counterclockwise).
2. Set the
EQ knobs at the center detent.
3. Connect the signal source to the input.
4. Engage (push in) the
SOLO switch.
5. Play something into the selected input.
This could be an instrument, a singing
or speaking voice, or a line input such
as a CD player or tape recorder output.
Be sure that the volume of the input is
the same as it would be during normal
use. If it isn't, you might have to
readjust these levels during the middle
of the set.
6. Adjust the channel's
TRIM control so
that the display on the right LED
meter stays around "
0" and never goes
higher than "
+7."
7. If you'd like to apply some
EQ, do so now
and return to step 6.
8. Disengage that channel's
SOLO switch.
9. Repeat for each of channels
1
through
4.

INTRODUCTION
Thank you for choosing a Mackie Designs
professional compact mixer. The 1202-VLZ PRO
is equipped with our new precision-engineered
XDRTM Extended Dynamic Range premium
studio-grade mic preamp featuring:
· Full gain range from 0 to 60dB
· +22 dBu line signal handling capability
· 130 dB dynamic range
· Distortion less than 0.0007%, 20Hz to 20kHz
· Bullet-proof RF rejection using DC pulse
transformer circuitry
· Made in Woodinville, Washington, USA
Now that you have your 1202-VLZ PRO, find
out how to get the most from it. That's where
this manual comes in.
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Since many of you folks will want to hook up
your 1202-VLZ PRO immediately, the first pages
you will encounter after the table of contents
are the ever popular hookup diagrams. These
show typical mixer setups for Record/Mixdown,
Video, Disc Jockey and Stereo PA. After this
section is a detailed tour of the entire mixer.
Every feature of the 1202-VLZ PRO is described
"geographically;" in other words, in order of where
it is physically placed on the mixer's top or rear
panel. These descriptions are divided into the first
three manual chapters, just as your mixer is
organized into three distinct zones:
1. PATCHBAY: The patchbay along the top
and back.
2. CHANNEL STRIP: The eight channel
strips on the left.
3. OUTPUT SECTION: The output section on
the right.
Throughout these chapters you'll find illus-
trations, with each feature numbered. If you're
curious about a feature, simply locate it on the
appropriate illustration, notice the number
attached to it, and find that number in the
nearby paragraphs.
You'll also find cross-references to these
numbered features within a paragraph. For in-
stance, if you see "
To wire your own cables:
," simply find that number in the manual
and you've found your answer.
Finally, you'll notice feature numbers like
this:
. These numbers direct you to relevant
information.
This icon marks infor-
mation that is critically
important or unique to the
1202-VLZ PRO. For your
own good, read them and re-
member them. They will be on the final test.
This icon will lead you to
in-depth explanations of
features and practical tips.
While not mandatory, they
usually have some valuable
nugget of information.
THE GLOSSARY: A HAVEN OF
NON-TECHINESS FOR THE NEOPHYTE
Appendix
is a fairly comprehensive
dictionary of pro-audio terms. If terms like "clip-
ping," "noise floor," or "unbalanced" leave you
blank, flip to this glossary for a quick explanation.
A PLUG FOR THE CONNECTORS SECTION
Appendix
is a section on connectors:
XLR connectors, balanced connectors, unbal-
anced connectors, special hybrid connectors.
ARCANE MYSTERIES ILLUMINATED
Appendix
discusses some of the down 'n'
dirty practical realities of microphones, fixed
installations, grounding, and balanced versus
unbalanced lines. It's a goldmine for the neo-
phyte and even the seasoned pro might learn a
thing or two.
