3.3 Channel Signal Processing: Upper 200 Slot, Lower 200 Slot, Options Bucket
As of this writing, there are three 200 Series signal processing modules available:
•
225L Compressor/Limiter
•
235L Noise Gate
•
215 Sweep Filter
Signal processing modules may be installed in the Upper and Lower 200 Slots and the Options
Bucket.
As mentioned above, the channel preamps (212L or 205L) may be installed in one of
the channel
200 Slots. However, if they are installed in the Options Bucket, both 200 Slots may be
fitted with signal processing modules.
The routing of the Upper and Lower 200 Slots is dependent on which modules are installed and
internal programming. In a standard installation, the Upper and Lower 200 Slots are grouped
together for routing purposes.
The possible locations for the 200 Slots are:
•
Pre-EQ Fader 1
•
Post –EQ Fader 1
•
Pre-EQ Fader 2
•
Post –EQ Fader 2
NOTE: A USER button in the Center Section can be programmed to change the location of the
Upper 200 Slot as a custom option. See section 3.7.3 200 Slot Programming and
Patching for details on 200 Slot routing.
