Description
The DX1208 has eight balanced, line-level Analog Output Channels having a max peak output
level of +24 dBu. All Output Channels have digital
Gain , Meter , Solo , and Mute controls which
appear in the Channel Strip at the bottom of all Device Window tabs except the Automix tab.
Parameters
•
Channel Select Selects the Output Channel that is controlled by the Output tab.
•
Channel Name Output Channels can be given a Channel Name of up to 32
characters in length.
•
Meter Displays the instantaneous peak signal level of the Output
channel immediately prior to the output D/A converter.
•
Fader / Gain Controls the gain of the Output Channel after the Crossover and
Mute switch, but prior to the Limiter and Delay. Gain can be
applied from [-99] to [+20 dB] in [0.1 dB] steps using the Gain
textbox, or from [-38] to [+20 dB] by dragging the Fader handle;
dragging the Fader handle all the way to the bottom sets the Gain
to [-99 dB]. < CTRL+CLICK> in the channel Meter to reset Gain
to unity.
•
Mute Mutes the Output Channel. The Mute is applied between the
Crossover and the Fader .
•
Solo Soloing an Output Channel mutes all Outputs that are not Soloed ;
Soloing an Input Channel mutes all Inputs that are not Soloed .
However, Solos do not override existing Mutes , so any channel
that is both Muted and Soloed will not be heard. If both Input and
Output Channels are Soled at the same time, make sure that all
Input Channels routed to the Soloed Outputs are also Soloed , or
they will not be heard.
EQ
Description
Each of the eight DX1208 Output Channels is equipped with a fully-configurable eight-band
EQ, which occurs in between the Matrix Mixer Output and the Channel Crossover Filters in the
DX1208 signal chain. Each EQ band can configured as a Parametric, High/Low Pass, or
Shelving Filter, and can be individually enabled or disabled.
These Filters are functionally identical to the Input Channel Filters described in the Input EQ
section of this helpfile. Those Output Channel EQ controls that differ from their Input Channel
EQ counterparts are described below.
Parameters
•
Parametric EQ Bypassed Bypasses all eight Filter bands at the same time without
changing any Filter’s settings. , disabling the entire EQ while
