INTRODUCTION
THANK YOU!...
for choosing the Manley VOXBOX. This unit is the result of our customers asking us to make a vocal
oriented combination from some favorite Manley designs. We combined the Manley Mic Preampli-
îšżer, Electro-Optical Limiter, and Mid Pultec and then went further. Uniquely, we put a compressor
before a minimalist mic preampliîšżer. This can substantially reduce distortion while having no more
sonic imprint on the signal than the mic pre by itself because the compressor is just a passive light
dependent clamping resistor. For those who want the shortest path to tape, but use compressors, this
has to be the ideal solution. We added attack and release controls to the compressor with some “very
special” settings such as one that simulates a LA-2A, another “tuned” for drums and a setting that
works like a great engineer “riding” a fader. Then we extended the PULTEC MEQ down to 20 Hz and
up to 20 kHz so its not just a mid EQ anymore. To this we added a new de-esser circuit and gave it a
“Limiter” setting. This nal de-esser / limiter is completely independent of the compressor and is post
EQ.
We wanted the VOXBOX to be “Manley quality” and the rst and only “analog combo” (other than
consoles) to make a serious entry into the major studios. We provided our style of balanced inputs and
outputs and used fewer but better parts. It only required îšżve Manley audio transformers, six multi-
tapped inductors, two expensive Multi-Caps, four low noise graded tubes, four Vactrol opto-isolators,
three regulated power supplies, six Bournes conductive plastic pots & seven Grayhill gold contact ro-
tary switches. A few of these items are likely to cost more than other manufacturer’s total parts. With
all these serious transformers we even provided ways to go transformerless,the minimalist and purist
way to go. We went to great lengths to eliminate typical clicks and pops from switches. The compres-
sor and limiter can be switched in while recording and the change happens smoothly. We added auto-
mute circuitry to eliminate the turn-on & turn-off thump and regulated all the power supplies. Many of
these developments have since been incorporated into revisions of our other pro products.
While we were designing the VOXBOX we couldn’t help but notice how well it would work on other
instruments besides voice. There were some great settings for drums (unusual), bass, guitar and keys.
So don’t just use it for voice - you can use it everyday and in any situation regardless of how well
equipped the studio may be. The name “VOXBOX” represents only the beginning and the most obvi-
ous application.
Please take a few moments to read through this manual carefully as it contains information essential
to proper operation of this unit and we scattered little hints all over. Thank you again, and please
enjoy!
GENERAL NOTES
LOCATION & VENTILATION
The Manley VOXBOX must be installed in a stable location with ample ventilation. It is recom-
mended, if this unit is rack mounted, that you allow enough clearance on the top and bottom of the
unit such that a constant ow of air can move through the ventilation holes.
WATER & MOISTURE
As with any electrical equipment, this equipment should not be used near water or moisture.
SERVICING
The user should not attempt to service this unit beyond that described in the owner’s manual.
Refer all servicing to your dealer or Manley Laboratories.
