I want to record using Tascam with my peavey xr1220 mixer
What Tascam recorder are you using? If you are multitracking you will be unlikely to be able to use this mixer. Otherwise get a phono lead to fit the tape out and suitable connections for the Tascam recorder at the other end. This will allow you to record the main mix but unless you are a solo act or putting everything through the PA this will probably be pretty useless to you.
Sound cuts out
check the free air circulation in the power amp module, also check your speaker's impedance, let me know further, sorry for the late answer.
I have a xr 1220.
The48 volt supply is a simple rectifier/filter from the power transformer. The schematics don't even show the switch anyplace that one can find it. It appears they don't even regulate the 48 volts... Some Peavey switches are just in a hole that you have to poke something into with an alternate action button. They use these on some equipment for instance for selecting a powered mixer into L/R or Main/monitor setup. Push in with a match stick... From the manual it lloks like this is supposed to be a tiny square button... these are EASILY broken off but usually you can still actuate the switch with a little stick.

- Hi, I can help. If your country does not support 110V @ 60 cycles or (RPM) Revolutions Per Minutes then your Peavey will not function at all.
- Depending on your country you would need to get a step up or step down transformer which will increase or decrease the voltage and cycles to effectively run your Peavey.
- This website list many countries outlet Voltage as well as the corresponding Hz or (Cycles Per Minute AKA revolutions Per Minute) http://electricaloutlet.org/
- When you find your county look to the right and you will see the voltage and Hz requirements. Based on that you can tell if you need a step up or step down transformer. HINT (It will more than likely be a Step Up Transformer.)
- As you go further to the right on that page you will see the name of the style of plug your country uses also.
- Then all you need to do is get a Step Up Transformer that plugs into your socket that has a corresponding standard U.S.A. 110 Volt outlet on it to plug your Peavey into into.
- These are available all over the internet.
- If you have any comments please feel free to ask.
- Hope this helps and thank you for using FixYa.

I have 110v XR 1220
There are dozens of transistors in the unit... we can't guess which you might be refering to. The power supply of the 1200 series mixers have fuse before each part of the supply for the preamp sections.

Hi. The mixer puts out a full range mix, the solution is in your speaker setup.
Many subs have a built in crossover that splits the signal for the tops. Check your sub specs or manual. If your subs have this, run your output signal to them first and then link them to the tops from the special daisychain socket.
If they don't have one, you can install a passive crossover to your subs or buy an external crossover unit.
The last (and not very good) option is to fake a crossover with the desk's stereo EQ. Connect the subs to the left or right channel and the tops to the other and use the EQ to remove the bass from the tops and vice versa, pan everything dead center. Obviously this sacrifices your stereo sound and isn't brilliant.
Peavey 14 bt mixer won't pan. Keeps sending signal to both outputs
If your Peavey 14 BT mixer is not allowing you to pan the audio signal and is sending the same signal to both outputs, there could be a few potential reasons for this issue. Here are some troubleshooting steps you can take to address the problem:
1. **Check the Pan Controls:** Make sure you're using the correct pan controls for the channels you're trying to pan. The pan controls are typically knobs labeled "Pan" or "Balance" on each channel strip. Ensure that they're set to the desired positions.
2. **Reset Pan Controls:** If you've already adjusted the pan controls and they're not working as expected, try resetting them to their center positions. This can help eliminate any accidental settings that might be causing the issue.
3. **Channel Routing:** Some mixers have routing options that can affect panning. Check if there are any routing switches or buttons that might be affecting the signal routing for each channel.
4. **Mono/Stereo Mode:** Some mixers have a mono/stereo mode switch that can affect panning. Make sure the mixer is in the appropriate mode for your setup.
5. **Master Pan Control:** Ensure that the master stereo output pan control is set to the center position. If it's panned to one side, it can affect the overall stereo output.
6. **Test Different Channels:** Try panning different channels to see if the issue is specific to one channel or affecting multiple channels.
7. **Firmware/Software Update:** If your mixer has digital components or software control, check if there are any firmware updates available. Sometimes, software updates can address functionality issues.
8. **Physical Damage or Wear:** Inspect the pan controls and associated circuitry for any physical damage or wear that could be causing the issue.
9. **Factory Reset:** If none of the above steps resolve the issue, you might consider performing a factory reset on the mixer. Be sure to back up any important settings before doing this.
10. **Professional Service:** If the problem persists after trying these steps, it might be a more complex internal issue that requires professional servicing. Contact Peavey's customer support or a qualified audio technician for further assistance.
Remember that the exact steps and controls can vary depending on the model of your Peavey mixer. Refer to the user manual for your specific model for more detailed information on troubleshooting and operation.

Does the peavey xr-600b have phantom power
It does not have built-in phantom power. Phantom power is a method used to provide power to condenser microphones and other devices that require a small amount of power to operate.
It is important to note that the XR-600B have XLR inputs which are typically used for condenser microphones that require phantom power but it does not provide this feature. If you want to use a condenser microphone with the XR-600B, you'll need an external phantom power supply or an audio interface that provides phantom power.
