Input channel EDIT
The 6 inputs are arranged as follows:
Inputs 1 and 2 feature a Compressor section, and can be set as a stereo pair or independent; inputs 3-4 and BT are always managed as a stereo
pair, and do not feature the Compressor section.
From the Mixer view, click on the channel edit buttons to enter the EDIT pages (shown here with Edit mode = ADVANCED):
The first page shows both HPF and input 3-band equalizer; you can modify the values by clicking
on the parameter and rotate the encoder. The EQ offers the following characteristics:
HPF: OFF, 20…400 Hz
LO EQ: 40 Hz, LO SHELF
MID EQ: 1000 Hz, PEAK
HI EQ: 4000 Hz, HI SHELF
The input channel level is always accessible, on the left. Just below, the PAN control is available,
and enabled when MIX OUT is set to STEREO mode.
The lower rightmost button (
>
) directs you to the second edit page. A right-to-left gesture has the
same effect to direct you to the second edit page.
In this page, a single-control Compressor,
optimized for generic input signals, is
available. To disable the compressor, set it
to the minimum value.
The other 3 controls all require a confirmation.
Link 1-2, when enabled, links input channels 1 and
2 to behave like a stereo pair, with ganged levels
and parameters. When linked, buttons 1 and 2 are
merged (see image on the right).
Please note that 48V on/off control is enabled only
when input PRE is set to MIC.
For channels 1 and 2, the input preamp has 3
possible settings, please refer to the table below
for details.

A top-to-bottom gesture returns to Mixer View. Right-to-left and left-to-right gestures allow navigation between first and second page
of Input Channels 1 and 2.
