In recent years, we have redesigned and upgraded most of our line, making the best even better! Our 500-plus different models now appear in 8 Groups1, which are clearly defined by function. Congratulations on purchasing your Kramer VA-14, which is ideal for: n Live stage and studio audio mixing n Presentation systems and press conferences n Post production in video/audio studios The package includes the following items: n VA-14 4x1 Balanced Audio Mixer n Power adapter (12V DC Input) n This user manual2 2 Getting Started We recommend that you: n Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for possible future shipment n Review the contents of this user manual n Use Kramer high performance high resolution cables3 2.1 Quick Start This quick start chart summarizes the basic setup and operation steps. 1 GROUP 1: Distribution Amplifiers; GROUP 2: Video and Audio Switchers, Matrix Switchers and Controllers; GROUP 3: Video, Audio, VGA/XGA Processors; GROUP 4: Interfaces and Sync Processors; GROUP 5: Twisted Pair Interfaces; GROUP 6: Accessories and Rack Adapters; GROUP 7: Scan Converters and Scalers; and GROUP 8: Cables and Connectors 2 Download up-to-date Kramer user manuals from the Internet at this URL: 3 The complete list of Kramer cables is on our Web site at KRAMER: SIMPLE CREATIVE TECHNOLOGY Getting Started 2 Overview 3 Overview The VA-14 4x1 Balanced Audio Mixer is a high quality, low noise, 4-input balanced audio standalone mixer that provides for two different levels on each input -Mic level or line level, as well as the selection of either a dynamic or phantom microphone. The VA-14 includes: n Four rear panel XLR input connectors and two XLR output connectors n A front panel headphone output, positioned alongside a phones level potentiometer n Two master front panel potentiometers for adjusting each of the master outputs of all1 channels n Four front panel level potentiometers3 for adjusting each input n A 12 VDC rear panel power socket, which is ideal for field use2. The unit generates broadcast voltage level ±15V and ±48V internally from the single 12 VDC input n Underside panel switches3 for selecting the balanced level (Mic or line) n Underside panel switches3 for applying 48V phantom power4 Achieving the best performance means: n Connecting only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables) n Avoiding interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely influence signal quality and positioning your VA-14 in a location free from moisture and away from excessive sunlight and dust Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit. Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power wall adapter that is provided with this unit5. Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall before installing or removing device or servicing unit. 1 The combined signals from inputs 1 to 4 are mixed 2 Via a belt battery, for example 3 Each corresponds to its respective input 4 This is for applications that require typical condenser microphones to be connected directly to the VA-14. To prevent unnecessary damage, apply phantom power to the Mic only when required 5 For example: model number AD2512C, part number 2535-000251 Your VA-14 4x1 Balanced Audio Mixer 4 Your VA-14 4x1 Balanced Audio Mixer Figure 1, Table 1 and Table 2 define the VA-14 4x1 Balanced Audio Mixer.
