PHONES / CONTROL ROOM section
a) MAIN MIX or ALT 3-4 switch. Routes the signal from MAIN MIX or
ALT 3-4 faders to the PHONES / CONTROL ROOM. The signals are
routed after (post) the faders.
b) SOLO or PFL switch. In the SOLO position when any LISTEN
button on input channels (only) is pressed, that signal is automatically
routed to the PHONES / CONTROL ROOM. The signal source is after
(post) the input channel fader and PAN control.
In the PFL position the PHONES / CONTROL ROOM will only monitor
a signal when a LISTEN button is pressed. In this mode the signal is
before (pre) fader.
If no LISTEN button is pressed there will be no signal at the
PHONES / CONTROL ROOM.
Whatever monitor mode is chosen, any signal routed to the PHONES
/ CONTROL ROOM will be displayed on the bargraph meter – see
section
47.
c) PHONES / CONTROL ROOM fader. Controls the signal level to the
headphone and control room outputs.
d) PEAK LED. Illuminates when the PHONES / CONTROL ROOM
level is approaching maximum which could result in a distorted sound.

MAIN MIX faders
Controls the signal level to the MAIN MIX outputs (XLR, jack & RCA
Phono) and to the internal amplifiers. The signal feeding the
amplifiers is monitored on the bargraph (section 47) and also SIGNAL
& PEAK LEDS – see amplifier status section.
Operating your Powerhouse with the top +10 segment of the
bargraph constantly illuminated and amplifier PEAK LEDs flashing
continuously could damage your speakers. The Powerhouse will
detect this and enter a protect mode, shutting down.
If this happens it can be reset by turning off and then on the A.C
power to the Powerhouse again. Reduce the MAIN MIX faders a little
to prevent entering protect mode again.
