Balance and Pre / Post
When LR is the selected output, the balance slider controls how much of the output signal is sent
to the left versus the right outputs. Touch and drag the slider left or right to make adjustments.
Tapping the master fader’s balance ball twice will center it.
When an aux send is the selected output, the balance control is replaced with a pre / post
toggle button. Here, the aux send may be configured as pre-fader [left] or post-fader [right].
Simply tap which setting you prefer.
There is no balance control or pre / post button for reverb or delay, so this spot will be blank when reverb
or delay is the selected output.
Output Gain Reduction Meter
Like channel faders, the output gain reduction meter shows the amount of gain reduction
applied to the output by the compressor / limiter. Output channels do not contain gates.
Anyone else think of KITT from
Knight Rider
when looking at the gain reduction meter?
To learn more about the output compressor / limiter, check out chapter 13 starting on page 80.
Master Fader and Output Meters
As discussed, the master fader adjusts the output level of the LR, the aux masters and the reverb
and delay master sends, depending on which output is selected. While one fader controls the
output level of each output, each output is independent of the others. Once the selected output
has been chosen, touch and drag the master fader up and down to make adjustments.
The output meter displays the output signal level. The output meter is presented in mono or
stereo depending on the selected output. It is stereo for LR, while the auxes and FX sends are
presented in mono.
Speaking of FX, if reverb or delay is selected, the fader controls the master send into the
corresponding FX processor.
This meter should remain green with the occasional bump into the yellow zone. The output
meters are post-fader, so if there is too much yellow (or any red clipping), lower the master
fader until it’s gone and check the input channels, as well.
