Digital Stereo Line Level Inputs
These outputs are typically used to connect to machines, such as tape
decks, cart machines, CD players, etc., that provide digital outputs.
Producer Talkback Input
This input is provided to allow a line level signal from a remote location
to perform the talkback to Studio function. This input will only be heard in the
Studio output, and cannot be assigned to any fader or to any other monitor.
Sources - Not Exactly the Same as Inputs
The word source is used to describe any audio signal that is used to drive
a particular section of the console. For the 12 FADERS, the source will be one
of the inputs to the console, but in the case of other sections of the console, such
as meters, monitors, and caller feeds, the source may be an input, or it may be
one of the console outputs, or buses.
For all 12 faders, the switched meters, and the Control Room and Studio
monitors, it is possible to have no source assigned by dialing up the selection
OFF. See the section on selecting sources for details.
Faders - Using the Inputs
Although many different inputs signals can be wired to the console, the
console only has 12 FADERS (plus two PHONE FADERS, described below).
In order for the audio from an input to be heard in any of the main or mix-minus
outputs it must first be SELECTED by a FADER. This process is explained
in detail in a later section of the manual.
For all 12 faders, the switched meters, and the Control Room and Studio
monitors, it is possible to have no source assigned by dialing up the selection
OFF. See the section on selecting sources for details.
Phone Faders
Two of the inputs are configured as PHONE FADERS. No other inputs can
be selected for those faders, and those inputs cannot be selected for any of the
12 normal faders.
Outputs - What Comes out of the Console
The console main outputs include two main stereo buses (PGM and AUD),
two main mono buses (MONO1 and MONO2), two mono caller feed mix-
minus buses (CF1 and CF2), and two general purpose mono mix-minus buses
(MXM1 and MXM2).
Monitor outputs include a stereo Control Room output, two stereo outputs
for the Studio section (one is pre-fade, which means it is not affected by the
Studio level control), a mono pre-fade cue output (not affected by the cue level
