Summing Mixer
500R8 features a high-headroom 8-to-2 analogue
Summing Mixer that can be used to sum eight analogue
audio paths from the 500 series slots into a single stereo
track for recording back into your DAW.
You can use the eight 500 series slots as well as their
insert points to apply analogue colouration and
processing onto your audio tracks/stems before they are
summed using the Summing Mixer. The input sources
Summing Mixer are determined by the source switches
below each 500 series slot to allow for summing
Analogue, C.A.S.T., or USB sources.
The Summing Mixer has a headroom of +24dBu to allow
you to drive transformer/valve-based equipment to get
the most range of colouration available without fear of overdriving the Summing Mixer and
clipping 500R8’s dedicated Summing Mixer A/D converter.
Mix Level & Pan
The Mix Level and Pan controls are used to balance the volume and pan position of each 500
series slot within the Summing Mixer.
Mix Level
Adjusts the level of the 500 series slot into the Summing Mixer. Mix Level is a variable
control with a range of -∞ to +10dB
Pan
Adjusts the pan position of the 500 series slot into the Summing Mixer. Pan is a variable
control with a centre detent that operates a -4.5dB pan law.
Summing Mixer Outputs
The stereo output of the Summing Mixer is sent to two different locations internally for dual
recording in different circumstances.
USB Input 9/10
The Summing Mixer and its stereo output is sent directly into its own dedicated stereo
A/D converter that is used to record the stereo mix into your DAW via 500R8’s USB
Audio Interface. The Summing Mixer output corresponds with USB Input channels 9/10.
Mix Output
The Summing Mixer and its stereo output is sent directly to two dedicated ¼” jack
outputs on the rear panel labelled ‘Mix Output’. These connections can be used to send
the summed mix onwards to 3rd party converters or monitoring systems.
The Summing Mixer does not feature its own master volume control. This in order keep the
analogue path as pure as possible and ratain the maximum headroom and lowest THD. Use
the individual Mix Level and Pan controls for each 500 series slot to reduce the overall level of
the Summing Mixer and prevent clipping its A /D converter or internal signal paths.
