Magnetic Crossfader
The MP26’s crossfader is a field replaceable, no-noise, no-bleed
magnetic fader.
• Assign each PGM channel to the A-side, B-side or Post-Cross-
fader with switches in the program strips.
• Select one of three crossfader slopes with the
Contour
switch.
• See "Faders" on page 18.
Phones
The Headphone Monitor provides stereo or mono Split Cue
operation.
• In Stereo operation, the
Pan
control pans between stereo Cue
and the stereo Main Mix.
• In
Split Cue
operation, the
Pan
control pans between Mono
Cue in the left ear and mono Main Mix in the right ear.
• Individual
Cue
buttons are provided for PGM 1, PGM 2,
PGM 3, PGM 4 and the FlexFX Loop.
• The Headphone
Level
control sets the level in both the front
panel 3.5 mm and ¼
˝
output jacks.
• The headphone output includes 2-band full-cut tone controls.
Tone control range is Off to +6 dB. These headphone tone
controls are adjusted from the computer using the MP26
driver control panel.
Main Mix and Main/Zone Outputs
The Main Mix is made from MIC 1, MIC 2, PGM 1, PGM 2,
PGM 3, PGM 4 and the FlexFX Mix.
• Mono the Main Mix by pressing the front panel
Mono
but-
ton. To mono only a specific output, use the rear panel Mono
switch on the Main Outs, or the
auto-mono
single plug feature
of the Zone and Booth Outs.
• Apply effects to the entire Main Mix by engaging the Main
Mix (blue)
FlexFX
button. This button instantly sends PGMs
1-4 and Mic 1-2 to the FlexFX Bus.
• The Main Mix is metered using a stereo rms/peak signal meter
with peak-hold.
The Main Mix feeds these outputs:
•
Main Outs
•
Front panel
Balance
and
Level
controls manage the relative
(left/right) and overall levels respectively.
•
The rear panel
Mono
switch combines the left and right
channels of the Main output, and an attenuator controls
the
Max Out dB
from 8 Vrms (0 dB) to 0.5 Vrms (-24 dB).
•
The Main Output is available on balanced XLR and unbal-
anced RCA connectors.
•
Booth
and
Zone Outs
•
Front panel Booth and Zone
Level
controls adjust the cor-
responding output level.
•
Booth and Zone Outputs are available on balanced ¼
˝
TRS jacks. Left and right jacks automatically provide a
mono signal if the other plug is not inserted.
•
Record Outs
•
Stereo unbalanced RCA and S/PDIF outputs.
•
The
S/PDIF
output is a 24-bit 48 kHz digital output.
•
The Main Mix, Mic 1, or Mic 2, may be recorded via USB
record channel six. Record source selection is made in the
computer’s MP26 driver control panel.
FlexFX
The FlexFX architecture in the MP26 is more powerful than
typical effect insert solutions. The architecture includes the
FlexFX Bus, an auxiliary bus routed to the FlexFX Loop which
includes two independent effects inserts. Any combination of
PGM 1-4 and Mic 1-2 may be routed to the FlexFX Bus. Any
combination of internal digital, external analog and USB effects
may be applied within the FlexFX Loop. It is possible to cue
and meter the FlexFX Loop return. You can bypass the entire
FlexFX Loop using a single button to instantly punch in and out
a combination of effects. The final FlexFX Output Level controls
the level of the FlexFX audio in the Main Mix. The flexibility of
the FlexFX architecture makes it a very powerful tool. So, it is
important to take some time to understand FlexFX signal rout-
ing and controls.
