Overview: 

The Input signal is fed to the “Nicerizer 16 mk2” via the Input XLR’s on the rear 
panel. The input signal is panned by the associated pan control on the front 
panel and can be monitored by selecting the associated channel on the Monitor 
control on the front panel. Monitoring can be achieved via the Front ¼”  jack, and 
rear connections, and visually by the LED metering on the front panel. 
 
The Nicerizer 16 mk2 is usually used in channel pairs Eg: 1- Left, 2 –Right. 
All channels can be monitored individual, and the L bus and R bus can also be 
monitored individually. The main bus output level is adjusted via the main 
levelcontrol on the front panel.
