32. Peak Indicator
This leD indicator will illuminate when the channel hits high
peaks, 6 dB before overload occurs. it is best to adjust the
channel level control so as to allow the PeAk indicator to light
up on regular intervals only. This will ensure a greater dynamic
range of audio. This indicator also doubles as a solo indicator,
when the solo button is engaged.
33. Solo Button
The solo button is pushed to allow the signal of the corresponding
channel to be sent to the Control Room / Phones mixing bus
(pre or post fader, depending on the properties selected by
the pre / post button, located below the solo level control), for
use with either headphones or studio monitors. This button
also allows for easier isolation of individual channel signals,
ensuring setting of the input gain or tracking of audio by sound
engineers is made simpler. The peak indicator above the
solo button illuminates whenever the solo button is activated,
however also doubles as a Peak indicator, illuminating when
the signal reaches high peaks.
34. Channel level Control (Fader)
This 60 mm fader will alter the signal level that is sent from the
coresponding channel to the corresponding mixing buses.
Digital Effect Engines
35. Digital Effect Display
This panel displays the titles of different effects that can be
added toaudio. When you select the effect, the leD beside
the effect name will illuminate, and the alteration be applied
automatically. For a list of available effects, please observe
the Digital effect Table.
36. 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. To see
the list of available programs, please check the Digital effect
Table.
37. Peak Indicator
This leD indicator will illuminate when the channel hits high
peaks, 6 dB before overload occurs. it is best to adjust the AUx
3(eFx) control(on all input Channels and the Master section)
so as to allow the PeAk indicator to light up on regular intervals
only. This will ensure a greater dynamic range of audio.
38. 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 corrsponding
leD illuminates.
39. Parameter Control
This will adjust the one main parameter of the digital effect
program that is applied to the audio feed. Please refer
to the Digital effects Table for more information on effect
parameters.
NB. The digital effect engine has a "memory" function, which allows you
to adjust the parameters of a program, then, if you change the parameters
of another program and return to the original one, your parameter setting
will be kept until the Parameter Control is turned once again, at which
time it will be altered according to the control.
40. Tap Delay Button and Indicator
When the tap delay program is selected, this button is used
to determine the delay time. By pushing the button several
times, the effect engine 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.
Master Section
41. AUX return 1 to 4 Controls
These controls adjusts the signal level of audio fed through to
the stereo AUx Return inputs. The "To AUx send 1", "To AUx
send 2", ect., controls adjust the pre-fader level of the signal
from the AUx Return controls to the corresponding AUx mixing
buses for effect-to-monitor send. The AUx 3 control typically
adjusts the signal level of audio fed through to stereo AUx
Return 3 inputs, however, if no device is plugged into the AUx
Return 3 inputs, it then acts as the output level control of the
built-in Digital effect engine.
42. Main l/r - Group Buttons
The first of these buttons changes the destination of signal
sent from the AUx Return 3 mixing buses between the Main
l/R and group mixing buses, The second button works when
the user selects to send the signal "To group", allowing the
signal to be send to either group 1-2 ot group 3-4.
