Can someone look on the back of their Mackie desk

...and tell me what the voltage range is... Is it something like 100>240
or is it more specific? The reason I ask is because I wanna know if there will be conversion issues with an imported desk from the US.

Hopefully it'l just be the case of me gettin a plug/converter or better still a UK 'kettle' lead.

Can someone clarify

You're referring to the mixer correct? Mines is a 1604 VLZ PRO and it's 120

120 'Flat?
No range I.e >250?

I use mine in the US and UK and have to put the mackie mixers on a step up transformers in the UK. I have two LM3204s and a 1202 both have fixed supplies that only accept 120v. I will say that I have not taken them apart to investigate modification yet, that is comming up next. I am teaching myself dreamweaver so that my new site can have a page dedicated to traveling with musical instruments. Let us know what mixer you are considering and I will investigate. Power supplies are not rocket science thankfuly.

1604VLZ pro........Its already been sent over for me..... Im just trying to make accomadations for it....

I Pick it up monday.......Im just being eager

Cheers

my bad, it's 250. Sorry about that!

Yeeeeeeeeeeaah! Hipp Hipp............

Nice 1 blaze, I should be able to use standard UK 'kettle' lead then (The type that the MPC uses then)

I hope

It's all good, after all "WE ALL WE GOT !" Aight, later.

My 24-4 VLZ pro has ~120VAC 50/60HZ then it describes the Fuse 1A/250V slowblo.

You need a converter.

Well which ever way it is, Ill find out 2moro

Thanks to guys

So if it comes to a step up transformer, and you are anywhere near ruislip the us navy base right by the west ruslip train station will have a fair number of americans that use step up transformers. You should be able to spot them by the white trainers. Or there is maplins.

Thank you and thank the rest of you's that took the time out to contribute!

I did indeed need a step down convertor - All is well now...Got my Mackie up and running...Just gettin to know its sound now really.....setting trims etc........

You dont wanna know what I was messing with b4 (It done a justice tho)

Back to the convertor topic....I spoke with Mackie (UK) about swapping the internal transformer and they said they'd be glad to sell me one. having the convertor isn't really an issue but I'd like it to be all in one if you know what I mean Its no biggy tho so Im in no rush to cop it as yet.

Bravo now you know........that was like an open invite........what were u using b4????.......what ever it was u had it mastered and your material was sounding really good.......I am glad you have goten your new board and I wish you much success with it

Nothing major... It had 12 channels..... 2band EQ. Im sure it was like a keyboard mixer or something...A Sansui......A friend threw my way when I started out.....Never did like that thing but it helped me on my way

I have to say, it feels like im starting from scratch with the mackie - Im impressed tho....I just need to get to know it....Afterall, It is still early.

Ive not even used it properly yet - Been busy with some other stuff in ma life. Howz trickz tho P? We aint exchanged in a longtime...
