When both Analog and Digital are specified to operate as MAIN Inputs, we refer
to it as "Mixed Format." The Mixed format gives you the option of using the left,
right, or summed mono input signals of each type of input(Analog or Digital). In
this format, patch points are given up. The parameters for determining what
blend of Left/Right is passed to each Machine (A and B), are “A BAL" and “B
BAL", located on Page Two of the Setup Edit mode.

The determination of Fixed vs. Mixed formats is set in Control mode on Page
Three: the Machine Configuration page. Selecting ANALOG or DIGITAL on this
page specifies the Fixed format.
If you want to input both analog and digital audio (Mixed format), press CTRL to
get to Control mode. Press PAGE UP or PAGE DOWN to view the Machine
Configuration page. The leftmost button on the bottom row selects I: ANALOG
or DIGITAL. In Dual Mono Setups, the selections also include: A>L D>R, and
D>L A>R. Turn the Soft knob so that the display reads:
Mach Conf: Dual-Mono
I : A>L D>R O : a>l d>r
In this format, analog audio feeds the Input to the Left Processor (Machine A);
digital audio feeds the Input to the Right Processor (Machine B).
Machine A audio comes out Analog left (and digital left)
Machine B audio comes out Digital right (and analog right)
All Dual Mono setups have the ABAL and BBAL set to Left-CHannel and Right
CHannel respectively. This assumes a fixed format type of audio configuration.
If you elect to work in a Fixed format, all Dual Mono setups will require individual
adjustment of ABAL and BBAL to 50%.
