1. IMPORTANT REMARK

We thank you for trusting on us and choosing our GOA9C mixer. In order to get the most in
operation and efficiency from your mixing unit, it is VERY IMPORTANT for you - before you plug anything -
to read this manual very carefully and take seriously into account all considerations specified within it.
In order to guarantee the optimum operation of this unit, we strongly recommend that its
maintenance be carried out by our Authorised Technical Services.

1.1. Safety Precautions

This apparatus must be earthed through its mains cable.
Do not expose the unit to rain or water splashes, and do not place liquid containers or
incandescent objects like candles on top of the unit. Do not obstruct the ventilation shafts with
any kind of material.
Any change in the configuration of the unit must be carried out by a qualified technician.
Should any connection / disconnection task be done, always disconnect the unit from the mains
supply.
There are no user serviceable parts inside the unit.

2. INTRODUCTION

The GOA9C mixer is designed for its use in discotheques, ballrooms, bars, disco bars and
external P.A. applications.
The GOA9C has 8+1 mixable channels, i.e. 8 channels with conventional sliding fader plus one
special channel for the effect return with rotary potentiometer, which can be used to input normal line-
level signals from any source. It features 12 stereo inputs: 3 PHONO, 4 0dBV LINE (high line level for
compact disc, DAT, MP3 players), and 5 –10dBV LINE, AUX INPUT and MIX; plus 4 more inputs for
balanced microphones (XLR 3). The AUX INPUT connector is duplicated on the front panel (13), so an
additional sound source (portable CDs, portable DAT, or even walkmans) can be instantly connected to
the mixer without having to change fixed configurations.
All channels have a lever switch input selector, independent gain control and 3-band tone
controls. The GOA9C also has a removable, externally exchangeable CROSSFADER to which any
channel can be assigned via a set of switches with LED indicator to show which channels are currently
routed to what side of the crossfader.
All inputs are PFL-capable in order to visually (through the VU meters) and acoustically (through
headphones) monitor any signal connected to the inputs of the unit.
In the GOA9C, we have cared specially about the roughness, long-time response and maximum
adaptability to the DJ needs, getting a total ease of operation.
