L MIX R (Master) Faders
The
L MIX R
(master) faders set the final level of the mix L
and R outputs. Assuming input
SENS
settings have been cor-
rectly set, the
L MIX R
(master) faders should be set close to
the ‘0’ mark to provide maximum travel on the faders for
smoothest control.
RET1~RET4 (Stereo Returns)
Four balanced stereo returns,
RET1
through
RET4
, are avail-
able for use as outputs of effects units or other stereo sources
and are mixed directly to the AUX or MIX/SUB busses at a
level set by the respective controls. The left-hand control sets
the return level to a choice of
AUX1
or
AUX2
(
AUX3
or
Lexicon
FX
in the case of
RET4
), depending on the position of
the adjacent switch. The right-hand control sends the return
level to
MIX
or
SUB
, depending on the position of the adja-
cent switch (i.e., it is effectively a rotary fader).
If a mono source is used, plugging it into the left jack only
will automatically feed the signal to both left and right busses.
DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR
The built-in Lexicon Digital Effects Processor provides a wide
range of echo, reverb, and acoustic treatments to add fullness
to sound, complement room acoustics, or for specific effects.
LEXICON RET (Return)
LEXICON RET
is similar in operation to the stereo returns,
RET1
through
RET4
, but instead of taking an external
source, this section is fed from the output of the internal
Lexicon Digital Effects Processor. The left-hand control
sets the return level to a choice of
AUX1
or
AUX2
, depend-
ing on the position of the adjacent switch. The right-hand
control sends the return level to
MIX
or
SUB
, depending
on the position of the adjacent switch (i.e., it is effectively a
rotary fader).
PROGRAM SELECT
PROGRAM SELECT
is a rotary switch that provides selection
of any one of 16 factory-programmed effect combinations,
as listed on the panel legend below the controls. These fac-
tory presets have been carefully implemented for this mixer
and should be suitable for most applications.
PARAMETER ADJUST
PARAM1/PARAM2
Two pre-programmed effects may be adjusted and saved in
on-board RAM (random access memory) using the
PRO-
GRAM ADJUST
encoder knob and
PARAM1/PARAM2
stor-
age switches. The best settings for a particular application
are found by experimentation and through careful listen-
ing to the final sound.
Adjustments are made by turning
PROGRAM ADJUST
,
while pressing down on
PARAM1
or
PARAM2
, and listen-
ing to the result. As soon as you release
PARAM1
or
PARAM2
, the setting will be held in internal RAM. Any
alterations to the pre-programmed settings are retained,
even if the mixer is turned off, and will be recalled the next
time the particular program is selected. If a setting differs
from the original default values, the
USER
LED will illumi-
nate.
NOTE: To restore a parameter to its factory setting, press down on
both
PARAM1
and
PARAM2
until the
USER
LED goes out.
LEXICON MUTE FOOTSWITCH
Lexicon effects may be remotely turned ON or OFF
through the
LEXICON MUTE FOOTSWITCH
jack (on the
rear panel). Use a standard latching (or non-latching) gui-
tar footswitch, or similar unit that provides an isolated
switch closure, and connect it as shown below. The effect
will be muted when the switch is closed.
