INTRODUCTION
Thank you for having chosen a PROEL product.
With FLASH X PROEL introduces the third generaon of a series of loudspeakers that represented a reference for
compact, portable systems for years. The new FLASH XD connue a long history of high-denion sound, reliability and
rugged construcon in an aordable package, adding now signicant steps forward in technology and a brand new style,
and sll oering the best-in-class performance, features and design.
FLASH12XD is powered by newly designed amplier module able to provide up to 1000W of clean and undistorted
power. The high-eciency Class D output stages, combined with light-weight and compact Switch Mode Power Supply,
gives a massive punch and a consistent reserve of power. The built-in 2-channel mixer with independent LINE and MIC
inputs can turn any FLASH12XD system into an instant PA system.
The use of a high-denion compression drivers and a long-excursion woofer carefully selected and customized provides
an accurate acousc response and an amazing sound pressure level with very low distoron.
FLASH12XD is controlled by the powerful PROEL CORE LT DSP, featuring high-performance signal processing and high-
denion 24bit converters, capable to deliver an outstanding sound denion and a dynamic performance typical of
top-end systems. The CORE DSP signal processing includes a sophiscated Dynamic EQ, able to shape accurately the
system’s sound while maintaining a full dynamic range at any level. In addion the CORE LT DSP oers an extensive
dynamic protecon to the system, for geng always the maximum undistorted output. 5 EQ PRESETS (MUSIC, LIVE, DJ,
MONITOR, SPEECH) can be easily selected to adapt the speakers to any kind of applicaon.
Other features of FLASH12XD are a compact and lightweight PP cabinet with extended internal ribbing and symmetrical
wedge angle, a constant wide-coverage (90° x 60°) horn for a uniform and coherent sound dispersion, newly-designed
ergonomic aluminium handles and built-in ying points for the use in xed installaon.
INSTRUCTIONS (FIG. 1 / 2 / 3)
1. LINE IN (combo XLR-JACK input)
This is a female combo connector, which accepts a XLR or a JACK plug from almost any type of equipment with a
balanced or unbalanced outputs. The XLR input is wired as follows:
Pin 1 = shield or ground
Pin 2 = + posive or "hot"
Pin 3 = - negave or "cold"
The JACK input is wired as follows:
Tip = + posive or "hot"
Ring = - negave or "cold"
Sleeve = shield or ground
When connecng an unbalanced signal, wire them as follows:
Pin2 / Tip = + posive or "hot"
Pin 1-3 / Sleeve = shield or ground
NOTE: whenever possible, use always balanced cables. Unbalanced lines may also be used but may result in noise over
long cable runs. In any case, avoid using a balanced cable for one channel and an unbalanced one for the other.
2. MIC IN (XLR input balanced)
This is a female XLR connector, which accepts a balanced microphone input from almost any type of Microphone. The
XLR input is wired as follows:
Pin 1 = shield or ground
Pin 2 = + posive or "hot"
Pin 3 = - negave or "cold"
3. MIX OUT (XLR output unbalanced)
These XLR connectors provide an unbalanced line-level signal that represent the mixed mic and line signal. Connect
these to the inputs of other powered speakers to make an array.
4. LINE LEVEL control
Rotary level control: it aenuates the level of the signal sent to the LINE IN input, the aenuaon ranges from “0” fully
closed (the signal is completely aenuated) to “10” fully open, nominal level (the signal is not aenuated in any way,
so is fed to the internal amplier at the same level at which it arrives on input).
