Telephone / AUX Channel (Channel 9)
Channel Layout & Function
Channel Layout
Description
1 - TEL / AUX:
This button allows you to switch the channel between TEL
(Telephone) mode and AUX input mode. When TEL mode is selected, the
channel switches to Telephone mode and enables the built in telephone
interface (see rear of panel). The function of several buttons is also altered
when in Telephone mode.
When in AUX mode, the channel uses the stereo input from either the AUX
input on the rear of the mixer or the small AUX jack input located on the
mix face in the Monitoring section.
Button is illuminated when in AUX Mode. Please note that this button can
be disabled using the SRM Setup Mode.
2 - PGM Button (Program Bus) –
This button allows you to select whether
the output of the channel should be mixed into the Program Bus Output.
The Program Bus Output is the main mixing desk output which would
normally be connected to your transmission or encoding system. The
reason for this function is to allow you to de-select channels to be included
in main Program Bus Output but still use the channels (for recording etc).
Button illuminates when selected.
3 – REC Button (Record Bus) –
This button allows you to select whether the
output from the channel should be mixed into the Record Bus Output
which would normally be connected to your Myriad system (or other
playout system). This function allows you to select which channels Myriad
should record, which is very useful when, voice tracking or recording
telephone calls (when live on air etc). Button illuminates when selected.
4 - Trim:
The Trim control allows you to adjust the overall volume level for
the channel when the fader is in the upmost position. Basically, this allows
you to set how loud the channel should be when the fader is fully up. This is
very useful for setting relative levels between channels with different
source volumes.
5 - PAN / BAL (Balance):
This control has two functions depending on
whether you are in TEL or AUX mode. In TEL mode the control acts as a PAN
control which allows you to set the input bias for the channel to either be
left channel or right channel. In PAN mode, if you rotate the knob all the
way to the left then the right channel input will effectively turned off.
The control switches to BAL (balance) mode when AUX is selected which
does the same thing (i.e. allows you to alter the left / right bias) but turning
the knob fully to the left will still allow some of the right hand channel to be
heard, it will not mute it fully as in PAN mode.
