SOURCE SWITCHING
Four two track return source switches and one six track return source switch is
fitted to allow pre or post monitoring of a stereo mix from up to four stereo
machines such as Dat, Reel to Reel, Cassette, and CD players, and/or Six track
master machines.
Two track A through C are +4dBu and two track D is -10dbV (6Track is on
+4dBu pro audio level). All of the 2 Tracks sources can be summed if
necessary. When sourcing 2 Track machines all
surround CRM monitors will be switched off,
unlesss the Decoder Active switch is activated then
the 2 Track signal will be decoded into full surround
on all monitors.
Note: The 6 track source selector as well as the 2
Tracks to CRM will interrupt the CRM signal.
The 2 Tracks A/B/C/D switches will not interrupt
the CRM monitoring unless the 2 Tracks to CRM
is activated!
MAIN FADER.
Located in the bottom of the master section is one
100mm PowerVCA controlled fader controlling six
precision high end VCA's.
2.6 OSCILLATOR/TALKBACK SECTION
The three frequency, low distortion oscillator is a
phase shift design. The frequencies are: 100Hz,
1kHz, and 10kHz. Each frequency has its own front
panel alignment trimmer. A master level control is
fitted to adjust the output of the oscillator for
precise alignment of the console and tape machines.
The level ranges from -35 dB to +20 dB with a
detented mid-position of +4 dBu which can be
trimmed by the CAL trimmer. There is also a pink
noise generator built in for checking pan-pot
movements and jopystick routing.
The oscillator can be assigned to The LCRS and
Subbass busses, the Group busses, the Aux/Joystick
busses, and Studio 1/2 outputs, as well as the direct
output (in the patchbay). Each of the oscillator
assignment switches have a LED indicator.
The CRM will dim when the oscillator is active. (there is no dimming when the
pink noise generator is active.
