2-BUS+:  Front Panel Features & Benefits

01. LED METERING

[SIGNAL PRESENT LEDS PICTURED ABOVE]

Feature:   LED Metering.
Benefit:  Verify audio is present on any of the 16 channel inputs- simplifies troubleshooting.
Tip: 

,

  LEDs will either be dark when no audio is present or green when signal is present. They will not turn red for overload- 

because the 2-BUS+ has more headroom built in than any D/A converter set to standard calibrations (meaning you 
will clip in your DAW before you ever get close to clipping the 2-BUS+). The 2-BUS+ provides 6dB of headroom above 
full-scale output of a converter calibrated to the industry standard of -18dBu.

02. MONO BUTTONS

[MONO BUTTONS PICTURED ABOVE]

Feature:   Switch inputs 1&2 and/or 9&10 from stereo to mono.
Benefit:  Pan specific instruments straight up the middle of your mix.
Example:  If you have the kick drum on input 1, the snare on input 2, the bass guitar on 9 and the lead vocal on 10, then the mono 

buttons could be engaged to send those four elements straight up the middle of the mix.

Tip:  

,

  Want to drop your favorite EQ on the lead vocal? No problem. Simply patch it between your D/A (or interface) to the EQ 

and into input 10. Boom! You’re processing in analog, which means no latency that can cause phasing and other issues 
while mixing. Many users are wiring the 2-BUS+ into a patch bay or a Dangerous Liaison along with their converters 
to make for even easier integration of their outboard gear.
