Connecting ROXi to Stuff

XLR MIC / ¼” LINE COMBO INPUT

This input can accommodate any type of microphone – dynamic, condenser or ribbon – via the XLR input, or any ¼” mono instrument input via the center ¼” phono jack. The XLR connector is wired pin 2 positive, pin 3 negative and pin 1 ground. The ¼” center of the combo jack is for connecting any instrument with a pickup, electret mic or line out jack to the ROXi. The jack is a standard 1/4” wired tip signal, sleeve ground. The ring is used only for 12V mic power if needed.

FX SEND AND RETURN
These send and return jacks create a buffered, unbalanced insert point (pre-boost) for connecting outboard effects to ROXi. This allows mono outboard signal processing to be placed in series with the signal, while still utilizing all of ROXi’s output capabilities. The insert send has an adjustable pad if you are using an effect pedal with lower headroom. The pad has 3 settings (off, -6dB and -16dB) that can be set via internal jumpers.

SEE JUMPER DIAGRAM

AMP OUT
This output is for sending a balanced or unbalanced, nontransformer isolated output to a stage amp or anywhere else you may need an additional signal. This output has the added benefit of a level control, which is on the top panel. This output is muted when the MUTE / tune footswitch is activated.

TUNER OUTPUT
This is another unbalanced output which is always active – provided as a dedicated stage tuner out. When the MUTE isactivated, your stage tuner will continue to receive signal, allowing you to tune silently. The tuner output level follows the Amp Out level control. NOTE: because the tuner output level follows the AMP level control, if your AMP level control is turned down, your tuner won’t work.

DI OUTPUT
This output is balanced and transformer isolated, for sending signal to a front of house, monitor console, or any mixer or interface where balanced, isolated signal needs to be sent. XLR pin-out is: pin 2 positive, pin 3 negative and pin 1 ground. This output has a level setting switch – side panel DIP switch #1, labeled line and mic. In the ‘mic’ setting, the output is padded down -26dB to interface properly with mic inputs at the console, while the ‘line’ setting is not padded for better level matching with line level inputs at the console or interface.

100-240VAC POWER INPUT
ROXi is powered by a universal AC power supply. This means that no matter where your musical wanderings take you, ROXi can plug into the wall and it will work. And it also means one less wall wart you’ll own in your life. All units are shipped with a standard AC cable suitable for the country where it is going. This is a standard, off-the-shelf IEC power cable, so in the event you misplace the one that came with your ROXi, you can just borrow one from a bandmate and go. Tell them we said so.

V @ 500mA DC POWER OUTPUT
This output jack will power other 9VDC pedals you may have at your feet. The jack is a standard 2.1mm BOSS™ style, with the center negative. Maximum output current is 500mA, which means you need to add up the current draw of all the pedals you wish to power to ensure they don’t exceed that. To connectmultiple pedals, you’ll need an off the shelf multi-plug daisy chain cable.

Operation

WHERE TO PUT ROXI?
Great question. We recommend you put it wherever you want.
It will look very pretty when you first pull it out of its box, but trust us, it’s built to stand up to just about any kind of stage shenanigans you might encounter. All the pots have metal shafts and are well mounted to the top panel. All the 1/4” jacks have heavy duty metal bushings. The top panel is 1/4” extruded aluminum, and the bottom chassis is heavy-duty aluminum.

As you probably know, the main inspiration for this product was to provide studio-grade audio hardware, properly ruggedized to work on stage or mounted to a pedal board. Velcro is fine. The installed rubber feet will thread out so your Velcro mount will be flush. Hang on to those rubber feet, though, they’re pretty nice.

MICROPHONE / LINE INPUT
To connect a microphone to ROXi, first make sure the top panel gain knob is turned all the way down and the adjacent red 48V phantom power switch is set to off (pushed out). Then connect your microphone and if 48V is needed, simply activate it with the 48V switch. Always remember to turn 48V power on after connecting your microphone and off before disconnecting your microphone.

To connect an instrument, simply plug a 1/4″ instrument cable into the center of the combo jack.

SETTING THE GAIN
The first knob on the left side of the top panel is the GAIN control. With your mic or instrument connected to the input and signal flowing, turn the GAIN knob clockwise until the signal / clip LED indicator is on and lit solid green. This will represent a good operating level. The indicator will start to flash red when your signal is 13dB before clipping, so occasional red flash is ok, but all red means you should turn the gain control down.

Gain range for this input is adjustable between +5dB to +60dB (mic) or -15dB to +40dB (instrument). The Boost control can add another 10dB to these ranges. Also, the 1/4″ instrument input has a jumper (J4) to select between a LOW and HIGH gain setting, the HIGH gain setting offering a gain range of 0dB to +55dB.

PHASE REVERSE
ROXi has a phase reverse switch, located on the rear panel, topright (facing the rearpanel). Use this to toggle the polarity of audio signal.

Phase relationships can be very complicated, and discrepancies can result in accentuated or de-accentuated bass response of an out of phase signal. It can sound hollowed out and thin, or just downright weird. The rule of thumb here is whatever sounds right is probably right.

There may be setup scenarios where the front of house or monitor engineer requires you to try flipping the phase toachieve better phase coherency with other signals in the mix.
At the very least, it’s good for you to know how to operate this controls and hear it in use with your instrument.

12V POWER
The ¼” instrument input of the combo jack can be used to amplify an electret capacitor microphone. These are common for applications where a small microphone is mounted inside acoustic instruments, or a clip-on lavalier style microphone used somewhere on the outside of the instrument. Normally these microphones will contain very small integrated preamps which require a voltage to power. So the ROXi can send 12V power out on this input. This is activated via DIP switch #5 on the side panel.

12V power can be applied to the tip or ring of the instrument input combo jack. Configuration is done via internal jumpers, described in detail in the following “Internal Jumpers” chapter.

When switched on, this power supply charges up slowly, so you may need to wait a few seconds before signal from your electret mic is present at the input of ROXi. It is always best to make your input connections before applying power at the DIP switch, and power OFF the 12V at the DIP switch before disconnecting your source.

NOTE: the 12V power is supplied through a current limiting resistor that allows the power supply to be used with mics rated for as low as 3V. This includes DPA 4000 series mics and the K&K Trinity mic.

BOOST CONTROL
Want ROXi to go to almost eleven? This knob sets the amount your signal is boosted when you activate the ‘BOOST’ footswitch. Fully counter-clockwise is zero boost added, fully clockwise adds +10dB of boost.

As you can probably imagine, if you are using a microphone or a particularly feedback prone pickup system, adding boost might easily send you in to feedback territory. So start small. If you need to boost your output, start with a gentle boost amount and work your way upwards.
If you start to hear stage feedback or are overloading the input at the console, then you’ll need to back it off. We are not responsible for disgruntled soundpeople you may encounter during the operation of the boost circuit.

BOOST TRIM FUNCTION
The Boost footswitch (FS2) has an alternate function that activates or deactivates the FX insert. This function is selected via the sidepanel DIP switch #6, labeled FS2. If you are using this mode, we have included a bonus feature that allows you to permanently engage the Boost circuit and use the Boost knob as an additional gain trim control. This gives you to access the additional 10dB of gain provided by the boost circuit. This gain / trim setting will remain on regardless of DIP switch #6 setting.
This Boost Trim function is activated by setting internal jumper J2 to the ‘on’ position. The instructions for this jumper procedure is illustrated on pages 11 & 12.

FX DRY / WET CONTROL
This knob allows you to vary the amount of effected signal vs. dry signal in the FX loop. If your effects are too prominent in your output, simply turn the knob counter-clockwise, or turn the knob clockwise to increase the amount of effects in your signal. You might experiment running your individual effects wetter than normal, then use the control to tailor them according the particular stage or room where you are performing.

AMP LEVEL CONTROL
This allows you to adjust the level of the signal being sent on the AMP out jack on the rearpanel. 12 o’clock is unity gain which matches the output level of the DI out (when set to line level). REMEMBER, this also effects the level of the TUNER out, so if your tuner isn’t getting signal, double check you that you have this control turned up sufficiently.

FILTERING AND EQ
One of the defining features of ROXi is the very powerful, EQ / filter controls. If you haven’t used EQ’s or filters much, we will provide a basic overview here. But the full science ofthis process is more than we can cover here, so we strongly recommend some adjunct reading: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equalization
As with all audio processing techniques, the more you know, the better you will sound.

HPF
The High Pass Filter (HPF) allows signal information only above its set frequency to pass to the output. You can also think of this as a low-cut. This filter employs 12dB per octave roll off and is designed to be very musical sounding. Use this control to tame unwanted low end rumble or stage noise that may find its way
into your microphone.

The HPF is activated with the side panel DIP switch #3 – the up position activates the HPF, the down position turns it off. There are 2 HPF roll off frequencies: 75Hz and 150Hz which are set by the side panel DIP switch #2.

GAIN HIGH PASS FILTER

LOW Control
The Low control is for adjusting the bass frequencies in your signal. The control fixed at 125Hz (+-3dB) corner frequency (40Hz peak), with a gain range of -10 to +10dB. This is a fixed shelving type control, which means everything below the125Hz is boosted or cut. It’s all about the bass.
GAIN LOW SHELF EQ

Also, because certain acoustic instruments (banjo, fiddle, pinkly little what ravenous) may react better to a higher corner frequency, we have added a Low control range jumper on the main PCB. Moving this jumper shifts the Low frequency up to 250Hz (+/-3dB) corner frequency. This is easy to do! We specifically designed ROXi’s chassis to make it easy to access internal jumpers. Please refer to the jumper diagram and access procedure.

WARNING : Make sure to disconnect the power mains before opening removing the ROXi top panel to make jumper adjustments.

MID Controls
The mid range section of ROXi’s equalizer is semi-parametric, which enables you control the mid range gain and frequency at a fixed Q factor. The range of these controls are:

Gain = +/- 10dB,
Freq Hz setting = 175Hz – 4kHz
Fixed Q factor = 1.2
GAIN    MID EQ

In general, you use the mid range EQ control to affect frequencies in the typical range of the human voice or most instruments. Turning it down results in a more ‘scooped’ sound, turning up a honkier or peaky sound. Heres a good read on frequencies: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Audio_frequency

High Control
The High control of the ROXi preamplifier is set with a 2kHz (+/-3dB) corner frequency (12kHz peak), with a gain range of -10 to +10dB. This is a fixed shelving type control, which means everything above the 2kHz is boosted or cut. Simply put, this is a treble control. If you think your banjo may be too bright, turn this knob counterclockwise. If you think your guitar needs a little more bite, turn this knob clockwise. If you’re not sure, then get down there and start turning it one way or the other until it sounds better.
GAIN                                                           HIGH SHELF EQ

And the same as the Low control, we have added a High control range jumper on the main PCB. Moving this jumper shifts the High frequency down to a 1kHz corner frequency. Please refer to the jumper diagram and access procedure.

OUTPUT CONTROLS

Boost
This knob sets the amount your signal is boosted when you activate the ‘BOOST’ footswitch. Fully counter-clockwise is zero boost added, fully clockwise adds +10dB of boost. The boost is after the FX loop and affects both the DI and amp outputs.

As you can probably imagine, if you are using a microphone or a feedback prone pickup system, adding boost will send you in to feedback territory. So start small. If you need to boost your output, start with a gentle boost amount and work your way upwards. If you start to hear stage feedback or are overloading the input at the console, then you’ll need to back it off.

ROXi is not responsible for disgruntled soundpeople you may encounter during the operation of the boost circuit, especially those you have already borrowed your misplaced IEC power cable from. Keep those people happy, they control the suck knob.

Amp Output Level
This knob sets the output level of the amp and tuner outputs on the rearpanel. If you are using a stage amp, use this control as your master level. Correct input gain settings for your sources, with the signal LED showing mostly green, should not be adjusted to alter your stage amp level. Rather, use this control to make master level changes.

Troubleshooting advice: if your stage tuner is connected to the ‘tuner’ jack but not working, make sure your Amp out knob is turned up sufficiently.

FOOTSWITCH CONTROLS

Boost / FX
This switch has two different functions based on the setting of DIP switch

6 labeled FS2.

In the Boost setting (switch in the down position), the footswitch enables the boost circuit. When active, the LED will be lit and the output signal is boosted by the amount set by the ‘BOOST’ knob. More is always better, but feedback and angry soundpeople can make for an uncomfortable gig, so start small!

In FX setting, (switch in up position) the footswitch activates or deactivates the insert / FX loop. There are 2 different modes for operating the FX footswitch:

• Mutes the return of the FX loop, so whatever signal is still in the FX loop (i.e. reverb or delay tails) will be cut immediately.
• Mutes at the send of the FX loop, allowing signals (i.e. reverb or delay tails) in the FX loop to trail off naturally.

These two options are selected via the internal Jumper J10.

Also, remember, if you are using the Boost footswitch for FX insert control, you can also turn on the ‘Boost Trim Function’ via internal jumper J2, which allows you to use the Boost control knob as an addition 10dB gain / trim control.

Mute / Tune
This switch mutes the DI and AMP output, but not the tuner output. This enables you to quickly and easily cut your signal to the FOH or stage amp and tune or unplug your instrumentwithout having to have the soundperson mute your channel.
When MUTE / tune is active, the adjacent LED illuminates RED.

SIDE PANEL CONTROLS
ROXi has a lot going on, more than we could fit on the rear and top panels alone. So there are a few features to be familiar with on the side panel.

DIP Switches
This is a bank of 6 DIP switches, used to activate these various modes and settings.

1. DI output level switch (MIC and LINE)
2. High Pass Filter roll off select (75Hz or 125Hz)
3. High Pass Filter on/off
4. 12 Volt phantom power on/off
5. 9V output on/off
6. Footswitch 2 function, boost or insert

DIP switches are a little hard to move, which is good because they probably won’t get inadvertently changed, but bad when you actually want to use them. Use the edge of a fingernail, a guitar pic or a toothpick. Whatever you chose, take care not to dig into the plastic too hard. You’ll get the hang of it.

ADJUSTING INTERNAL JUMPERS
Several ROXi settings can be adjusted via internal jumpers. While it’s not trivial to do, if you are handy with a screwdriver and tweezers, you’ll be fine. This is not something you should attempt to do on a dark stage or in the back of the tour van. Directions for disassembling the chassis and accessing the jumpers is as follows: IMPORTANT: Before you do anything, disconnect ROXi from the AC power, disconnect all cables and place ROXi on a flat stable surface with good lighting.

1. DOUBLE CHECK: Did you completely disconnect thepower supply? Ok then.

2. With a #2 Phillips screwdriver, remove the 4 chassis screws, located on the outer edges of the front bottom and rear bottom of the aluminum top chassis (figure 1)

3. Orient the unit so the rearpanel is facing forward towards you. Carefully pull up on the top chassis and flip it up and over the bottom chassis (figure 2).

This will reveal the top and bottom circuit boards. Do not pull them apart any further than the ribbon cables that connect them will allow. The top should rest easily on the work surface flipped over and behind the bottom chassis (figure 3).

4. Now refer to the jumper location diagram on the following page to move any jumpers you wish (closeup – figure 4).

5. To move a jumper, use tweezers or your fingernails to gently pull the jumper off of its header pins. To reposition the jumper, double check the diagram, then gently press the jumper back down in the correct location.

6. When you are finished adjusting the jumpers, make sure there are no loose jumpers or any other junk lying around inside your ROXi.

7. Then carefully reassemble the top and bottom chassis, making sure to let the ribbon cable fold easily back in place. If there is any tension or something isn’t fitting properly, carefully pull the top and bottom back apart and inspect for interference.

8. Once you have put the unit back together, replace the 4 screws, making sure they go in straight and true. You may need to nudge the top panel back and forth a bit to ensure the holes in the top panel chassis line up evenly with the inner threaded holes.

9. Do not tighten the screws until all 4 are cleanly started in the threads. Take your time and remember, cross-threading is a crime.

INTERNAL JUMPER LOCATIONS

1. J21 configures the LOW EQ corner frequency. It is set to LF1 at the factory (125Hz corner frequency).
2. J7 configures the HIGH EQ corner frequency. It is set to HF1 at the factory (2kHz corner frequency).
3. J2 activates the boost knob for gain trim mode, providing an additional variable 10dB of gain when Footswitch 2 is in set to INSERT. Set to BOOST at the factory.
4. J13 sets the pad settings for the insert send. Levels are -6dB, -16dB, or off. Set to OFF at the factory.

1. J6 configures 12V power, which can be applied to tip, ring, or set to off. Set these according to how your microphone / instrument is wired. Set to OFF at the factory.
2. J10 configures FX insert return mute. When ON, reverb and delay tails are cut off when FS2 is activated. Set to OFF at the factory.
3. J4 selects between high low gain settings for the1/4″ instrument input. Set to LOW at the factory.
