for a maximum midrange gain of +12dB or maximum decrease of -30dB. Turning the knob in a
counter-clockwise direction will decrease the amount of midrange applied to a channel signal,
turning the knob in a clockwise direction will increase the amount of midrange applied to a
channel signal.
BASS CONTROL -
This knob is used to adjust the low frequency levels of a channel allowing
for a maximum bass gain of +12dB or maximum signal decrease of -30dB. Turning the knob in
a counter-clockwise direction will decrease the amount of bass applied to a channel signal,
turning the knob in a clockwise direction will increase the amount of bass applied to a channel
signal.
25. MASTER VOLUME LEVEL INDICATORS -
The dual MASTER LEVEL LED indicators are used to
detail the master output level. The meters will detail the output level of both the left and right chan-
nels.
26. CHANNEL FADER -

When the fader is in the full left position (channel 1), the output signal of channel one will be controlled
by the master volume level. The same fundamentals will apply for channel two. Sliding the fader from
one position to another will vary the output signals of channels one and two respectively. When the
crossfader is set in the center position, the output signals of both the channels one and channels two
will be even.
30. CUE MIX -
This knob is used send a channels incoming signal to the headphones. Turn the knob
counter-clockwise to monitor Channel 1, and clockwise to monitor Channel 2. The cue level is adjusted
