The main mix bus and all signal combining stages on ASP2802
are optimised for clean summing with high headroom.
Mix Bus Metering
To gauge this headroom, large 20-segment LED peak meters
calibrated to OVU = +4 dBu = -14 dBFS are provided on the
main mix path output. These meters provide 36 dB of range.
Please note these meters follow
the selection made with the
Mix / SRC switch in the monitor
section.
Mix Insert
The mix bus features a switchable insert point.
The insert send is always active regardless of
switch state, and therefore can be used a pre
master fader pick off point if desired.
Mix Insert Parallel Mode
Using the insert SUM functionality, anything inserted into
the main mix path will now sit in parallel with the main mix,
facilitating creation of parallel processing techniques such as
subtle colouration / enhancing, equalisation and compression.
The parallel insert can also operate as handy balanced line level
expansion inputs. External summing devices can be used to add
extra inputs by returning their output to the insert return point
and engaging the insert sum switch.
