I MAIN MIX MASTERS
Using the Engineers Wedge Monitor
It is best to use the same type of monitor speaker
as provided on stage. This lets the engineer hear
the sound as the performer hears it.
Select the WEDGE MODE switch I3 to configure
the C output as the engineers wedge monitor. Use
the insert to patch in any processing required, for
example a graphic EQ to preview changes in the
monitor before applying them to the mix being
checked.
Select LR, C, 2-TRK or none as the default monitor
source in section O . Pressing AFL overrides the
source to listen to a selected output. Pressing
PAFL overrides any AFL selection to check one or
more inputs. Releasing PAFL restores the
previously selected AFL. This is well suited to
monitor mixing where you need to listen to the
mixes in turn but quickly check individual inputs
along the way.
Pressing the TALK TO TB switch S6 automatically
dims the output by 20dB to prevent feedback
between the local speaker and talkback mic.
I1 MUTE . This momentary action switch turns the
master signal on or off. It can also be muted by the
mute groups, snapshot memories, solo-in-place and
MIDI note on/off messages. The switch illuminates
when the signal is muted.
The switch also functions as a solo select when the
console is in SIP mode, and as an edit key when in
EDIT GROUPS or EDIT SAFES mode. The mute
status is always displayed on the switch regardless
of operating mode.
I2 SAFE / EDIT . This green LED has a different
function according to console mode:
Normal The LED lights when the master has been
made safe from the snapshot and MIDI automation.
Solo-in-Place The LED lights when the master
has been made safe from solo-in-place.
Edit Safes Indicates that the master is safe from
the automation when entered from normal mode, or
safe from solo-in-place when entered from SIP
mode.
Edit Groups The LED lights to indicate that the
master is assigned to the selected mute group.
Preview Snapshots The LED lights to indicate
that the master is muted in the snapshot memory
being previewed.
I3 WEDGE MODE . This underpanel mode
switch configures the C output to become the
engineers monitor when the console is used for the
stage monitor application. When pressed the
monitor source is routed in mono through the C
insert and fader to the main output. The C mix
bypasses this section and is available from the
matrix outputs if needed. The switch is protected to
prevent accidental operation. Use a pen or pointed
implement to select the required mode.
I4 PEAK . The red PK LED senses the signal
both pre and post master fader and lights to warn
when the main mix is within 5dB of clipping.
Reduce the inputs to the mix if the LED flashes.
I5 FADER . The main mix L,R and C each have
a 100mm smooth travel K-fader pro10dB
gain above the nominal 0dB operating position.
These faders are not part of the console VCA group
system.
