UREI 1603  Professional DJ Mixer (Rare)

About This Item

The Urei 1603 DJ Club Mixer provides a fully featured control center for clubs and performing DJs. With the legendary Urei sound quality, stunning looks and Soundcraft's exacting manufacturing construction. No club mixer has been designed to allow total integration with the club sound system while offering the pro DJ all the necessary tools of the trade.

The 1603 offers many user-friendly features for the club installer/sound engineer - most notably; a rotatable rear connector for table top or rack mount installation, input and output gain controls to configure the mixer to your set up, flexible connectivity for a range of inputs, external mute function AND Soundcraft professional input /output connectivity for unrivaled sound quality.

The 1603 also offers the DJ many pro features making life as a club DJ that bit easier - most notably; the huge range of input possibilities (including convenient top panel AUX in connectors), FX send and return, super-smooth 3-band isolator EQ, ultra clear LED level monitoring, flexible and unique monitoring features within both the booth controls and the headphone monitoring AND of course the famous Urei sound.
Perfect pre-listening is possible for channel and mix signals as well as for aux-send and aux-reutrn signals . The split and flip function, an EQ for the headphones and the choice between cue and mix signal leaves nothing to be desired.

The 1603 offers four input channels with connection opportunities for microphones (XLR), phono/turntable and line level (e. p. for a CD-player) in every channel. The pre-equalization at the phono input can get deactivated so that there can be also a CD-player connected. Therefore the UREI 1603 has all in all 4 microphone and 8 phono/line inputs. As the Aux-section has own jacks on the top of the console no channels have to be immolated.
The channels 2 - 4 are arranged with a 3-band isolator EQ which offers a control range from full cut up to +6 dB. Channel 1 which is usually used for microhpone announcements has a +/- 12 dB EQ and an additional insert jack. The microphone signal of channel 1 can be muted to avoid feedback for the DJ Booth.
The crossfader is an high-class VCA-fader. It allows a stepless adjustment of diefferent fader curves and guarantees a precise adjustment without sidetones. The output section is not less comfortable. Symmetrical XLR jacks and unsymmetrical cinch (RCA) jacks as master and booth output as well as 6.3 mm and 3.5 mm lathc inputs for headphones make the grade.

Besides a 3-coloured channel-LED is available which shows singal, beat and peak, a 10-segments LED-chain for the outputs, Booth-Output configuration (stereo, left only, right only, mono) as well as an EQ for the booth-output.
Especially for club installations UREI has the following features integrated: the external mute interface can mute the music signals at fire alarm and leaves the microphone channel (1) open for announcements. Additional the line inputs can be lowered by 10 dB to obviate clipping in the input channels. Alternatively the input level can be lifted by 14 dB. Therewith signals from MP3-players can be replayed without problems.
