Aux 3&4
and
Aux 5&6
are also on dual concentric controls
with the top control as Aux 3 /5 and the bottom control as Aux 4/6. The internal jumper setting for both
concentric controls are post fader. A pre selection is easy accomplished.
Aux 7&8
are also on dual concentric pots and factory set post fader. A jumper can change this to pre
fader if wanted.
The
DIRECT
switch reroutes the post-fader signal coming from the fader to the output of the Aux 8
control, creating a dedicated aux send for that channel only. Or it can be used as a multitrack send
independent of the fader setting. An internal jumper sets the +4dBu or -10dBV level. The output is ground
compensated.
4.4 Channel assign and fader section
The
Channel assign
section allows the user to assign to any
of the 8 busses. The routing gives selection to the 8 group modules using four pushbuttons. With
each pair of summing amps, you have the choice of assigning to the odd or even groups using
the pan pot. The
L/R
switch (in the assign section) assigns the pan pot to the stereo mix buss
while the pan control pans the signal between the main stereo mix L / R busses and / or the odd
and even group summing busses if assigned.
The Vision's summing amp and internal structure means that it is extremely quiet and distortion free,
therefore a direct button to bypass the amps is not necessary.
The MUTE switch is a momentary switch that controls a silent FET switch to mute the channel. The FET can
also be controlled by the optional MIDI mute module.
The
SOLO
switch has two modes, pfl (pre fade listen) or a “non-destructive” stereo solo-in-place
system. Master status switching (located in the master section) selects the “solo in-place” or “PFL” mode
for the entire console. Activating the solo switch in the pfl mode will send the pre-fader signal to the
CRM speakers. In the solo in-place mode, the post monitor pan pot signal is heard. A solo indicator LED
is fitted next to the solo switch.
T
he Vision has a high quality ALPS 100mm faders. P&G faders are optionally available. You can use any VCA Mix
Automation System which uses the faders and mute system in the Vision. The channels are prewired for
accepting any VCA automation system.
4.5 LEDBAR SECTION
The led bar is a peak reading 6 segment led bar following as a factory preset the post equalizer signal,
thus indicating the incoming signal before the insert.
The led bar can be set Post channel indicating the direct output level post fader.
Note: This peak reading device indicates a -6 dB reading below actual level with a steady sinus tone.
So when the internal level is 0 dBu, the meter will indicate -6 dB (The -3 dB led is on, the -10dB led is off)
