Manual-2
MP 2016S FRONT PANEL CONTROLS
INPUT SELECTORS 1-4
Each six-position Input Selector chooses a dedicated PHONO /
LINE preamplifier, or one of five stereo line-level AUX Inputs as
its Input Channel source. (PHONO / LINE switches are on the
rear panel).
INPUT SELECTORS 5-6
Each six-position Input Selector chooses a dedicated mono MIC
Input, or one of five stereo AUX Inputs as its Input Channel
source. (MIC GAIN trim, MIC / LINE switch and MIC tone
controls are located on the rear panel).
MIC ENGAGE
MIC 1 and MIC 2 ENGAGE switches allow switching a mic on
(
up
) or off (
down
). A MIC Input must be selected
and
MIC EN-
GAGE
on
to activate a MIC Input. When a mic is not in use, be
sure to switch MIC ENGAGE
off
. The MIC ENGAGE switches
also activate the Booth Ducker. This attenuates the Booth Out-
put -12 dB whenever a MIC ENGAGE switch is on, even if MIC
Input is not selected (internal jumpers allow disabling the Booth
Ducker—see
Mic/Line Inputs
on page Manual-6).
INPUT GAIN
INPUT GAIN controls allow the user to match input levels.
Adjust these to make the SIG / OL indicator flash green. If the
indicators turn red, reduce the INPUT GAIN. Adjusting the
INPUT LEVEL controls correctly maximizes dynamic range
and provides consistent MIX LEVEL response.
Input SIG / OL
These dual-color indicators provide help in setting correct input
levels. A flashing green indication is optimal. A red light that
lasts more than a flash is a request to turn down the INPUT
GAIN.
MIX LEVEL
These studio-grade controls determine the Master MIX LEVEL.
For optimum performance, set the INPUT GAIN controls as
indicated previously, and then operate MIX LEVELS between
“7” and “10” for full volume. Use the HOUSE and BOOTH
LEVEL controls to set the output levels. Always set the MIX
LEVEL controls to minimum when not in use.
CUE
The CUE signal is selected using CUE 1-6 switches in any
combination. The associated yellow indicator lights when a CUE
is active.
