1.
MIC INPUT JACKS:
These are balanced XLR-type microphone input jacks. (1: Ground; 2: Hot; 3:
Cold)
2. LINE INPUT JACKS
(mono channels): These are balanced TRS phone-jack line inputs. (T: Hot; R:
Cold; S: Ground). You can connect either balanced or unbalanced phone plugs to these jacks
3. TRIM CONTROL
adjusts the input signal level. To get the best balance between the S/N ratio and
the dynamic range adjust the gain, so that the PEAK indicator (9) lights only occasionally and briefly on
the highest input transients. The -60 to +10 scale is the MIC input adjustment range. The 40 to +10
scale is the LINE input adjustment range.
4. EQUALISER
(High, Mid and Low): This three-band equalizer adjusts the high, mid and low
frequency bands of the corresponding channel. Setting the knob to the "0" position produces a flat
response in the corresponding band. Turning the knob to the right boosts the corresponding frequency
band, while turning to the left attenuates the band
5. FX CONTROL:
The aux send marked FX offers a direct route to the built-in effects processor and
is therefore post-fader and post-mute
6. PAN CONTROL:
The PAN control determines the position of the channel signal within the stereo
image
7. ON/OFF SWITCH:
Turn this switch on to send signal to the buses. The switch lights orange
when on
8. CLIP LED:
This LED lights up when the input signal is driven too high. If this happens, back off the
TRIM control and, if necessary, check the setting of the channel EQ
9. SOLO SWITCH:
The SOLO switch is used to route the channel signal to the solo bus (Solo In
Place) or to the PFL bus (Pre Fader Listen). This enables you to listen to a channel signal without
affecting the main output signal. The signal you hear is taken either before the pan control (PFL,
mono) or after the pan and channel fader (Solo, stereo)
