The console’s Foldback A and B outputs can be used to feed studio floor headphone amplifiers. The F/B A and F/B B
controls are located immediately to the right of the TFT screen.
At the bottom of each section there is a LEVEL control, plus CUT and AFL functions.
The six switches down the right-hand side of each foldback section activate the sources which can be fed
to the Foldback outputs. Note that these switches are not inter-cancelling – all six sources can be active
simultaneously.
The
MIX 1 pot is used to control the level of the first two: the Record bus ( REC ) and External source
selector B ( EXT ). The MIX 2 pot is used to control the level of the second pair of sources: the Mix bus
( MIX ) and External source selector B ( EXT ). The final two sources are the stereo downmix control
room monitor signal ( ST MON ) and the Cue Stereo outputs ( ST A or ST B) , with Cue A going to
Foldback A, and Cue B to Foldback B.
Note that the Stereo Returns can also be added to the Foldbacks – see below.
The F/B A and F/B B buttons in the COMMUNICATIONS section add talkback to the foldback outputs.

The console’s four stereo FX Returns are designed to be driven by the outputs of devices which have been fed from the
corresponding mono FX busses.
At the bottom of each section there is a LEVEL control and AFL . The left and right components of the
signal can be cut individually using the R CUT and L CUT switches – useful for checking reverb returns,
and to defeat unwanted signals on the ‘open’ input when using mono returns. Stereo returns can be routed
to the record and mix busses using the REC and MIX switches.
The MONO switch sums the stereo return components together, routing a mono to all the destinations.
Very useful when you are using a mono FX device, as it saves having to parallel return inputs.
When
MONO is inactive, the BALANCE control provides balance between the left and right return
signals, and the WIDTH pot controls the width, from full stereo to mono. When MONO is activated,
the BALANCE control becomes a pan control.
Stereo returns can also be routed to the foldbacks using the FB A and FB B switches, with independent
level control provided by the STUDIO pot.
