The BALANCE (pan) control is
used to balance the relative levels of
the left and right channel signals
that are sent to the master stereo
mix. The control has a constant
power law, i.e. 0dB at the centre
position and + 3dB or off at either
extreme setting.
The ST switch connects the post
fader channel signals to the master
stereo bus via the balance control.
The AUTO MUTE switches assign
the channel to the 8 auto mute
groups.
The SAFE switches disconnect the
channel mutes from the auto mute
busses.
The MUTE switch mutes the input
channel at all points except the insert
send.
The SOLO switch sends the input
channel signals to the PFL mono and
AFL stereo busses. If the switch is
pressed for a short time it will latch
on or off, but, if it is held on for more
than 1 second the latching is disabled
and when the switch is released the
channel solo will turn off. As a
default the solo system is auto
cancelling so each new solo cancels
the last. This function is time
dependant which allows several solos
to be active as long as they are
switched on at approximately the
same time. The SOLO ADD MODE
switch on the COMMS module
defeats the auto cancelling and
allows multiple channel monitoring.
In this mode input solos have priority
over outputs and will temporarily
override any active output solos.
The METER monitors the peak
signal level of the channel pre fader
left and right inputs (which ever is
the heighest).
The FADER gives continuous
adjustment of the input channel
levels from + 10dB to off.
