Output section
The pan control places the input within a stereo
(Left/Right) mix. The pan control has a
constant power law such that at it's centre
position, each output is attenuated by 3dB. The
Pan control is enabled by the PAN switch (19).
With the PAN switch disabled, the XL42 is
essentially two independent channel strips.
With Pan enabled, output signal from each
input strip is distributed between the two
outputs.
The output level (inner ring on dial) controls the
output level in the range infinity to +10dB.
Note: When using the Link inputs, the link input
may be pre- or post-output level control.
The INSERT (INS) switch selects whether the
input insert return signal is routed to the input
channel before or after equaliser stage.
The MUTE switch mutes the channel outputs.
The mute may also be controlled via the
Automute link which is selected using DIP
switches on the rear panel
Note:
The Link input can be internally
jumpered to be pre or postmute. The default
state is:- link input bypasses mute.
The output peak level meter monitors the level
of the channel. By default, this is post output
level and pan, however this may be internally
set to be pre-level, pan and insert.
The PAN switch selects whether the PAN pot is
active or not.
