23. Digital Effect Display
This panel displays the titles of different effects that can
be added to audio. When you select the effect, the LED
imbedded next to the effect name will illuminate and the
alteration be applied automatically.
24. Program Control
This control is used to scroll through the various effects
shown on the Digital Effect Display. Turning the control will
automatically change the effect and apply it to the mix.
25. Parameter Control
This will adjust the one main parameter of the digital effect
that is currently applied to the audio feed. Please refer
to the Digital Effects Table for more information on Effect
parameters.
26. Peak Indicator
This LED indicator will illuminate when the Digital Effect
Processor overloads. It is best to adjust the Effect control
on input channels so as to ensure the Peak indicator does
not light up. This will ensure a greater quality overall of
audio.
27. DSP Effect On Button and Indicator
This button is pushed to turn the corresponding effect
panel on or off. When the effect processor is turned on, the
corresponding LED illuminates.
28. Tap Delay Button and Indicator
When the tap delay effect is selected, this button is used
to determine the delay time. By pushing the button several
times, the mixer interprets the time between last two pushes
and remembers this as the delay time until the button is
pushed again. When the tap delay effect is selected, the
corresponding LED will flash at the intervals selected.

29. Graphic Equalizer and Feedback Detection System
Each of the Powerpod Molded Mixers features two 7
band graphic equalizers that allow the user to adjust the
frequency response of the Main Left and Right signals or
Monitor and Main signals, as selected by the GEQ select
switch. The graphic equalizers provide a maximum of 12
dB of cut or boost on each frequency.
One feature, built into the Powerpod Molded Mixer graphic
equalizers, is a Feedback Detection System. The individual
LEDs located on the slide VR controls of the equalizer
will illuminate when feedback occurs on those particular
frequency band. By reducing the level of any frequency
band that has an illuminated LED you can quite effectively
remove feedback from your audio; after which the LED will
turn off. If an LED flashes, yet you are unable to hear any
feedback, it is probably best not to adjust the level. When
feedback occurs, the LED will generally light up and remain
lit.
30. EFX to Mon/Main Controls
These controls, one located below each of the Graphic
Equalizers, allow users to adjust how much of signal
processed by the built-in effects processor is sent to the
Main or Monitor mixing buses accordingly.
31. Tape In Controls
These controls, located below each of the Graphic
Equalizers, are used to adjust the level of the Tape In input
that will be sent to the main or monitor mixes, accordingly.
32. AUX In Control
This control, located below the Main Graphic Equalizer, is
used to adjust the level of the AUX In input, that will be sent
to the main mix.
33. GEQ Select Switch
The GEQ switch, located below the Monitor Graphic
Equalizer, allows you – the user – to decide how to utilize
the two Graphic Equalizers to best suit your needs. When
switched to the uppermost position, the Graphic EQs will
be used for the Monitor and Main signals. When set in
the lower position, the Graphic EQ will be used to adjust
the Main left and right signal properties separately. The
feedback detection system is always used for whatever
signal the equalizer is utilized to.
