6.  CHANNEL EFFECTS/REVERB LEVEL CONTROL

The EFF/REV level control adjusts the volume of the channel going to the
effects send master control, and the internal reverb tank.  The effects control is
post channel level.  This means adjustments in the channel’s EQ or level con-
trols will be affecting the effects send of that chan-
nel.

7-9.  CHANNEL TONE CONTROLS

Each channel features three tone controls LO, MID,
and HI.  The LO and HI controls are shelving type
tone controls with corner frequencies at 100Hz and
10KHz respectively.  The shelving means, the for
the LO control, all frequencies from 100Hz down to
the lowest frequency the mixer can handle are all
boosted when the knob is turned clockwise and cut
when turned counter-clockwise from the center
position.  For the HI control the shelving means  all
the frequencies from 10kHz and up to the upper
limit of the mixer are all boosted when the knob is
turned clockwise and cut when turned counter-
clockwise from the center position.  The MID control
is a band pass type of tone control with the center
frequency set at 1.5KHz.  The band pass means a
middle section of  frequences centered around 1.5kHz, but not over lapping the
HI and LO controls, is boosted when the knob is turned clockwise and cut when
turned counter-clockwise from the center position.  
Familarity with the channel tone controls:
The three tone controls can add brightness, clairity, and control to the channel’s
input signal.   Here are some tonal references for these tone controls.
• LO affects the deep low bass tones and the typical bass tones.
• MID affects all the middle frequencies where the clairty of an average persons
spoken voice is mostly heard.  Also the MID incompases the louder sometimes
harsher tones that can distort the over all sound of the system.    
• HI affects the treble tones and very high treble tones bringing brightness and
brillance to the channel’s input.
Adjusting:
Use these controls to change the tonal shape of the input signal and in many
cases to reduce possible feedback from microphones near the mixer’s output
speakers.  It is suggested the channel tone controls start out in their center
detent position where they do not effect the original incoming signal.  Then, if
needed, turn the tone controls  (boost,turn to the right, or cut, turn to the left) to
change the sound.
