Trikčių šalinimas
If you encounter issues with your K1-N mixer, refer to the following common problems and solutions:
| Problema | Galima priežastis | Sprendimas |
|---|---|---|
| Nėra garso išvesties | Power off; incorrect connections; volume levels too low; muted channels. | Ensure power is on; check all audio cable connections; increase main and channel volume faders; verify no channels are muted. |
| Iškraipytas arba triukšmingas garsas | Input gain too high; faulty cables; impedance mismatch; fan noise. | Reduce input gain (ensure PEAK LED does not light consistently); try different cables; ensure correct impedance matching for connected devices. Note: Some users have reported fan noise; ensure the mixer is in a well-ventilated area. |
| Mikrofonas neveikia | 48V phantom power off (for condenser mics); incorrect mic type; faulty mic/cable. | Activate 48V phantom power for condenser mics; ensure dynamic mics are connected correctly; test with a different microphone or cable. |
| USB/Bluetooth audio bypasses effects | Dizaino charakteristika. | The USB/Bluetooth input signal is routed directly to the main outputs and does not pass through the internal DSP effects. This is normal operation. |
| Sound quality degrades at high fader levels | Overdriving the mixer's internal circuitry. | Ensure input gain levels are set correctly (not too high). Avoid pushing channel or main faders to their maximum limits if distortion occurs. Adjust levels gradually. |
If the problem persists after attempting these solutions, please contact Kaschun customer support for further assistance.
