To fully erase a Take, apply the same procedure (Shift+ESC) to Takes with the folder
Audio_Trash selected as source folder.
VI.Solo
It's possible to have a direct monitoring of each input and output through Solo. Solo patches
directly to your headphones. Solos can be accessed in Record (12 o'clock), Pre-Record (11
o'clock) and Test (10 o'clock) positions.
Through Solo, many parameters can also be modified (Phantom, limiter, filter).
It is also a way of modifying the gain of inputs which have no actuator assigned.
To activate a Solo, press the Solo button of the actuator assigned to the desired input or output.
A short-press on the Solo button opens the Solo panel which is closed by pressing the Solo
button or the ESC button. If the Solo button is pressed and held, the Solo panel is closed upon
release of the Solo button. Press another Solo button to change the Solo or use the Left Crown to
go to the next or previous Solo.

Mic
In the Mic-Solo panel, you can: • Set the Phantom Power ON/OFF, Enable or disable the
Limiter or the Phase Inversion
•
Set the Preamp parameters:
൦
Pre-Attenuation (Mic Level, Line level, High level).
൦
Filter
•
Set the Digital filter parameters.

i.
Phantom
Toggle the Phantom Mic Power (48V) On or Off by pressing the Shift + F4 buttons.
Turn it 'OFF' while using a dynamic microphone, the preamp gain will be boosted by 12dBu.
ii. Limiter
Toggle the Limiter On/Off by pressing the F5 button.
While the Limiter is turned 'ON', a grey triangle is displayed above the Track where the Mic is
routed. If the signal level reaches the limiter zone (–6dBFS), the triangle will start blinking yellow.
NB:
In 24-bit recording mode, it is common practice to adjust the input gain so that a 'normal'
signal does not go over the -20dBFS level.
With the Limiter activated, the 32dBu head-room above the –8dBFS kick-in point gives 24dBu
above the 'no-limiter' full scale. The Operator can count on a 44dBu reserve over the normal
–20dBFS level.
If the signal does reach the 0dBFS level, a 'clip' red level appears above the top of the Vumeter
scale.
To maintain equilibrium between linked channels, the same Limiter command is applied to
ganged preamps.
