4. AUDIO ROUTING
The B-CONTROL gives you a plethora of routing options that are explained in detail in this chapter. The following illustration will give
you a general overview of your BCA2000s audio signal flow. You will find a detailed signal flow diagram on an extra sheet attached
to this manual.

4.1 Input routing
Analog inputs:
The input selectors (
,
,
and
) let you select the
signal sources for the input channels. For the mono input channel,
you can select a microphone input (MIC A), the left line input
(Line L) or the front-panel high-impedance guitar input. If the
GUITAR (HI-Z) button is pressed, the MIC/LINE button is
deactivated; mic or line inputs can no longer be selected.
On the stereo input channel, you can select between a
microphone input B (MIC B) and the right line input (Line R).
The LINE STEREO button gives you yet another routing option,
directing both left and right line inputs (
) into this channel,
which then operates as a stereo channel. In this case, the mono
input channel can no longer carry the left line signal. However,
you can still select a microphone or guitar signal, so that a total of
3 signals (1 x mono, 1 x stereo) can be recorded simultaneously.

Insert connections are available for all mono inputs (XLR and
¼" connectors). This insert point for external signal processors
is located directly before (pre-) the B-CONTROLs internal
processing and A/D converters. All selectable sources can be
processed in the mono input channel, while only inputs MIC B
and LINE R can be processed in the stereo input channel.
