A click on the tool symbol opens the channel’s
Settings
panel with differing elements. For ex-
ample the Option PAD exists only in input channel 1/2, and the ADAT channels do not offer the
phantom power option.
Stereo.
Switches the channel to mono or stereo mode.
48V.
Activates phantom power at the corresponding input. Serves as
power supply for high quality condenser mics. This option should stay
off with other sources to prevent failure by spikes.
PAD.
Applies -11 dB damping for the XLR input signal. Also increases
the input impedance.
Gain.
Sets the gain for both analog inputs. The knob can be adjusted by
dragging the mouse or by the mouse wheel. This also works when the
mouse has been moved over the two gain displays. Then the gain can
be changed separately for left and right channel, even when the channel
is in stereo mode.
Width.
Setting the stereo width. 1.00 equals full stereo, 0.00 mono, -
1.00 swapped channels.
FX Send.
Setting the level of the signal sent to the FX bus which feeds Echo and Reverb. The
current setting is also visible with closed channel settings, because knob and small fader are
always synchronized. To make this function as useful as possible FX Send is locked to the
highest submix, thus imitating the
Aux Post Fader
function of a standard mixing desk. When
moving the big fader both knob and small fader will also move. This way the reverb signal will
always have the same relation to the dry signal.
The level of the signal sent to the effects can be controlled by the
FX In
level meters of the FX
window. It becomes visible after a click on FX in the View Options.
MS Proc.
Activates M/S processing within the stereo channel. Monaural information is sent to
the left channel, stereo information to the right.
Phase L.
Inverts the phase of the left channel by 180°.
Phase R.
Inverts the phase of the right channel by 180°.
Note: the functions Width, MS Proc, Phase L and Phase R affect all routings of the respective
channel.
Besides Stereo/Mono, Phase L und Phase R the settings of the
Hardware Outputs have further options:
FX Return.
The effect signal (Echo and Reverb) is mixed to the
respective hardware output by the duo knob/small fader.
Talkback.
Activates this channel as receiver and output of the Talkback
signal. This way Talkback can be sent to any outputs, not only the
Phones in the Control Room section. Another application could be to
send a certain signal to specific outputs by the push of a button.
No Trim.
Sometimes channels need to have a fixed routing and level,
which should not be changed in any case. An example is the stereo
mixdown for recording of a live show. With
No Trim
active, the routing to
this output channel is excluded from the Trim Gains function, therefore
is not changed unintentionally.
