MaStEr MutE LED

mute is activated.
MaStEr MutE
Depressing this button mutes channels 1-7,
preventing signal from passing to the power
amplifier. This button does not affect chan-
nel 8.
NOtE: On the PVi 8500 the Master Mute
switch will send a Play/Pause signal to the
iPod
®
dock when MutED, when uNMutED
the Master Mute switch sends a StOP
signal to the iPod dock. this function is
extremely useful for playing program music
during breaks. a StOP command differs
from a PauSE command in that it will begin
at the next song in the play list the next
time the iPod receives a PLaY command.
KOSMOS
®
-C
The Kosmos-C module uses special circuitry
to enrich the sound of your system. The
Low control is not just a simple bass boost.
It provides ‘natural bass enhancement’ by
adding harmonically related bass signals
that track envelope of the original signal.
The Kosmos-C High control can be used to
add clarity to dull signals.
EFFECtS tYPE taBLE
This table lists the types of effects available
and the abbreviation used for that effect in
the first character of the LED display. The

encoder 24. A more detailed list of effects
can be found at the end of this manual.
