FORMULA SOUND FF-6000 [2/11] Ff 6000 introduction

FF - 6000 INTRODUCTION

The features and layout of the FF-6000 were determined in collaboration with leading

loudspeaker manufacturers Funktion One, who canvassed many DJs worldwide on their

requirements. The result is a mixer which is not only of the highest sound quality, as you

would expect from Formula Sound, but also incorporates the features and layout which DJs

have asked for.

The FF-6000 is essentially a seven channel mixer. Six of these channels are laid out to the left of

the master section and the seventh is a dedicated microphone channel labelled 'Console Mic'

positioned to the right of the master section

The six channels are each switchable to two input sources. Channels 1 and 2 are switchable

between low impedance microphone and a stereo line input. Phantom power is available for

microphones (internal selection). Channels 3 to 6 are switchable between a stereo line input and a

phono (RIAA) or line input.

(Phono/line selection is via a concealed push switch accessible through a hole in the rear panel).

These 6 input channels are fully assignable to the crossfader, and feature specially designed

three band equalisation with a range of +5dB to -23dB.

Gain trims are provided for all inputs accessible through the rear panel, as well as a front panel gain

control. An adjacent 5 segment led meter and clip warning indicator provide signal present

indication and overload warning. Illuminated push switches control input selection, channel routing

and cue, etc. Different shapes and sizes of push buttons along with colour coded illumination

help to easily identify control functions .

Removable Fader Panel

The fader panel mounted beneath the 6 input channels is removable and available with either

linear or rotary faders. This provides for easy removal and replacement of all faders which are

all connected by gold plated connectors. A screwdriver is the only tool required to replace a fader

or change the mixer from a linear to rotary fader operation.

Smooth feel Alps 60mm faders which are arranged to eliminate the ingress of dirt are used for

the linear fader option and superior quality rotary faders are used for the rotary option.
