ENGLISH VERSION
DSP-2600 is an all-in-one digital processor with 2 inputs
and 6 outputs. The unit uses a high precision 32 bit oat-
ing point and 96Khz sampling rate that greatly reduces
distortion. You can control the processor via USB or LAN
with the possibility of linking up to 250 devices. DSP-
2600 ships with XLR input and output connectors

any hearing loss or ringing in the ears, you should
consult an audiologist.
5. The product should be located so that its location
or position does not interfere with its proper ventilation.
6. The product should be located away from heat
sourcessuchasradiators,heatvents,orotherdevic-
es (including ampliers) that produce heat.
7. The product should be connected to a power sup-
ply only of the type described in the operating in-
structionsorasmarkedontheproduct.Replacethe
fuse only with one of the specied type and size and
with the correct rating.
8. The power-supply cord should:
1. Be undamaged
2. Never share an outlet or extension cord with
other devices so that the outlet’s or extension
cord’s power rating is exceeded, or,
3. Be left plugged into the outlet when left un
used for a long period of time.
9. Care should be taken so that objects do not fall
into and liquids are not spilled thorugh the enclo-
sure’s openings.
10. The product should be serviced by qualied ser-
vice personnel when:
1. The power supply cord or plug has been damaged;
2. Objects have fallen, or liquid has been spilled
onto the product;
3. The product has been exposed to rain; or,
4. The product does not appear to operate nor-
mally or exhibits a marked change in performance;
5. The product has been dropped, or the enclo-
sured damaged.
11. Do not attempt to service the product beyond that
described in the user-maintenance instructions. All
other servicing should be referred to qualied ser
vice personnel.
IMPORTANTSAFETYINSTRUCTIONS:
This product may be equipped tih a polarized line plug
(one blade wider than the other). This is a safety feature.
If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, con-
tact an electrician to replace your obsolete outlet. Do not
defeat the safety purpose of the plug.
(ForuseintheU.S.A.)
IMPORTANT:The wires in the mians lead are colored in
accordance with the following code.
BLUE:Neutral
BROWN:Live
As the colors of the wired in the mains lead of this ap-
paratus may not correspond with the colored markings
identifying the terminals in your plug proceed as follows:
The wire which is colored BLUE must be connected to
the terminal which is marked with the letter N or colored
BLACK. The wire which is colores BROWN must be con-
nected to the terminal which is marked with the letter L
or colored RED. Under no circumstances must either of
the baove wires be connected to the ground terminal of
a three pin plug. (ForuseinEurope)
