mic can be routed to line-out, foldback and tracks (p.10).

TripleCrown
and

Mixer's faders
Dustproof and waterproof, they are magnetically driven.
The black fader caps can be easily replaced with colored
ones.

place it see p.5, p.43 & p.57. The currently installed Mat-
shita UJ-85J DVD-RAM /±R burner is a slot machine.
