Phono / Line Select Switch
Selects either the RCA phono input or the alternative
RCA stereo line input. In the up position PHONO is
selected; when pressed, LINE is selected.
2
Channel Level Control
This control has a range of off to +10dB. Use it to ad-
just the signal level of an audio source to give a nominal
0dB reading on the channel meter, with the peak level at
or below 6dB. Turn LEVEL down if the +10 peak meter
starts flashing.
3
Channel Equalizer / Isolator
The Xone:42 is equipped with a very powerful 3 band
EQ stage providing a cont6dB of boost when
fully clockwise, but full isolation (cut) of each band for
dramatic effect when fully anti-clockwise. Centre
frequencies are set at:
HF = 2.7kHz (high frequency, treble)
MF = 1.2kHz (mid frequency)
LF = 420Hz (low frequency, bass)
4
Filter Select
Press this switch to route the channel signal through the
VCF filter. The switch will illuminate to indicate that the
channel is being sent to the filter.
5
X:FX Dry / Wet Send
Use this control to vary the amount of channel signal
that is sent to an external effects device connected to
the X:FX send / return on the rear panel. With this
control set to ‘dry’, none of the signal is routed to the
external effects loop; if the filter button is illuminated, all
of the channel signal is filtered. With the control in the
central position, half of the signal is sent to external ef-
fects, while the other half is unaffected or, if filter is se-
lected, filtered. With the control set to fully ‘wet’, all of
the signal is sent to external effects and the VCF filter is
bypassed.
