inputs. For example, they can return the signal of a multi-track recorder (Tape Returns), or act as inputs for
instruments, especially when your MIDI keyboard or rack delivers a pre-mixed stereo signal.
2.4.3 Level meters
The Main Mix / PFL / SOLO level is displayed by two highly accurate 8-segment peak meters . Depending
on the status of the SOLO function, either the PFL or SOLO LED lights up.
2.4.4 CHANNEL MODE and SOLO MASTER LEVEL controls
Fig. 2.13: PFL/SOLO Main section
The CHANNEL MODE button determines whether PFL (pre-fader listen) or Solo-In-Place is assigned to
the SOLO buttons in the channels. With the LEVEL control you can set the master volume of the
PFL/SOLO function. We recommend that you set this control to 0 dB, i.e. 12 o’clock. In loud environments
(e.g. live application), you can of course raise the PFL/SOLO volume as required.
PFL
PFL should always be used for gain setting (see also chapter 3 PRACTISE). Here, the signal is always taken
pre-fader and routed to the mono PFL bus.
SOLO
Pressing button once deactivates the mono PFL bus and replaces it with a separate stereo SOLO bus.
SOLO is short for Solo-In-Place, and is the preferred method for auditioning an isolated signal, or group of
signals. Whenever a SOLO button is pressed, all unselected channels are muted in the monitors. Stereo
panning is maintained. The SOLO bus is derived from the output of the channel Pans, Aux Sends and stereo
Line inputs. The SOLO bus is always post-fader.
2.4.5 Mix-B
Fig. 2.14: Mix-B Main Section
The LEVEL control allows you to adjust the overall volume of the Mix-B bus, and the button TO MAIN MIX
routes the Mix-B bus to the Main Mix bus. Thus, you can configure your MX3242X as a 32-channel
console. As the Mix-B input channels are specifically designed for line-level signals, they are ideally suited for
returning the signals from effects and MIDI devices. Naturally, the Mix-B bus also has a SOLO function, which
can be activated with button . In this case, the button’s associated LED lights up.
