20 Most Recent Mackie Cfx-16-mkii 16-channel Mixer With Dfx Questions & Answers

I can't find a schematic but this seems to be kind of simple to repair. These effects units are usually a small sound card almost like those in a computer. They plug in on a loop inside and also have a small 12vdc power plug. Not sure on this particular model but I have found several problems like this to be a loose connection. If you have it open and turned on, try wiggling the plug around and see if you see or hear any changes. The should also be a plug for the send/return loop I would wiggle as well. This plug goes through the effects level control knob and if it gets loose or dirty could make the level jump with a little vibration. It doesn't take much vibration to make a dirty connection show up. It does seem to be something of this type happening if the effects do work, verifying the effects card is probably ok.

If power was NOT turned off immediately after the spill, it is likely electrolysis has eaten through one or more circuit trace(s). If power had been turned off right away and the unit dried it would have been OK. The unit will have to be taken to a shop and repaired. This could be an expensive repair.
If the mixer is working properly audio wise and only the clip LED's are lighting, the cost may be mostly labor to repair the circuit board damage.

If your Mackie SR1530 is powering on but you're not getting any sound, there could be a number of potential causes. Here are a few things you can try to troubleshoot the issue:

1. Check your connections: Make sure that all cables are properly connected and securely plugged in. Check both the cables going into the speaker and the cables that are connected to your audio source.
2. Check your audio source: Make sure that your audio source is turned on and properly connected. Try connecting a different audio source to the speaker to rule out issues with the source.
3. Check the volume levels: Make sure that the volume on both your audio source and the speaker are turned up. Try turning up the volume to see if you can hear anything.
4. Check the input settings: Make sure that the input settings on the speaker are correct. For example, if you are using an XLR cable, make sure that the input on the speaker is set to XLR.
5. Test the speaker with a different audio source: If you have access to another audio source, try connecting it to the speaker to see if you can get any sound.

If none of these troubleshooting steps work, there may be an issue with the speaker itself. It may be a good idea to contact Mackie customer support or a qualified audio technician for further assistance.

If you are experiencing an issue where the QSC RMX 1450 amplifier is not giving any sound when connected to the main output of your Mackie 16 OK mixer, but works when connected to the aux send, here are some possible causes and solutions:

1. Check the main output level on the Mackie mixer. If the level is too low or muted, this can cause the amplifier to not produce any sound. Increase the main output level on the mixer and check if the amplifier produces sound.
2. Check the cables connecting the mixer to the amplifier. If the cables are damaged or not connected properly, this can cause the amplifier to not produce any sound. Ensure that the cables are connected securely and are not damaged or broken.
3. Check the amplifier settings. Ensure that the amplifier is set to the correct input source and that the input gain level is set correctly. You may also want to check if there are any protection modes or limiters enabled on the amplifier.
4. Check the speaker connections. If the speakers are not connected properly or are damaged, this can cause the amplifier to not produce any sound. Ensure that the speakers are connected correctly and are not damaged.
5. If none of the above steps work, there may be an issue with the mixer or the amplifier. You may need to contact a qualified technician to further diagnose and repair the problem.

Remember to always follow the manufacturer's instructions and safety guidelines when working with audio equipmen

I would check the insert socket.

I doubt the issue will be the regulators if you have the correct voltage on them. Check where the hum is coming from. What frequency is the hum; 50/60HZ = mains hum = bad ground. 100/120HZ = power supply hum. Affected by a control somewhere maybe.

This unit will require an amp. I have set up several mixers and I do not watch output level numbers, you can get desired volume using amp. It does no good to drive input levels high output levels high and the turn down amp. Lower your inputs so no light flashes set master gain to -6 output and then raise amp volume. I have set up 16 mic mixer set individual levels and the feed to main mixer and controlled levels with one fader. I have taken mixes from main mixer to another mixer to control audio on video feed. A good band does not let member's set their levels . the audio person set levels, bad bands have members to set own level with resultant a mess that gets louder and produces sub par event. Remember good bands sound good and bad bands only sound louder, and bad

You probably have issues with caps in the power supply....I would check that first...open it up and look for buldging caps and replace any that you find....

Bypass the Effects by jumpering the EFX loop send/return jacks. Mine had a bad effects processor converter chip, that was random and lost main bus signal intermittently. arlingtonguitarshop-dot:com

Hi, the crackling noise means it needs a service, was it stored in a shed or garage ? As damp storage is the likely cause.
