INPUT 1 minijack connector
Stereo INPUT 1 has a duplicate input connector, for the convenience of use: dual RCA on the
back panel and stereo minijack on the front panel.
INPUT encoders and indicators
The INPUT 1 to INPUT6 knobs are digital encoders to be pressed or turned to offer various
functions. Pressing them allows you to enable/disable each input for the output zone currently displayed
on the LCD (ZA, ZB, ZC or ZD). The active inputs (LED on) are mixed and sent to the destination zones,
after a DSP processing adjusted in the unit (volumes, tone adjustment, PAGER/DUCKER type priorities,
etc.).
To enable or disable inputs for a given zone:
1. Briefly press one of the four ZONE A, B, C or D digital controls, in the OUTPUT section of
the front panel
2. The LCD will display the selected zone in its upper left corner (ZA, ZB, ZC or ZD)
3. The INPUT 1 to 6 LEDs will show the inputs that are enabled for this zone (lit = enabled
input)
4. Briefly press any of the INPUT encoders to enable/disable the corresponding input for this
zone
Note: the INPUT 3 to 6 encoders are linked if you select the stereo mode for inputs 3&4 and/or
5&6: their LED indicators simultaneously light up and off when pressing one of them, indicating
that this is a stereo pair (L-R) in which both will receive the same processing for level, EQ, etc.
Rotating one of these controls in this output display screen adjusts the mix level of the
corresponding input in the targeted output, in order to configure a custom mix of inputs for each output.
See section 6.2 for more information (MIXER mode).
The INPUT 1 to INPUT 6 encoders, in combination with the SHIFT key (press and hold e
IN key)also provide access to the input setup menu (see chapter 7).
