MIXPAD 4 Channels
7: Balance (brown) - Provided in the stereo channel (channels 3 - 4)
only. When both inputs are connected to the stereo channel, the
channel 3 input signal is automatically panned hard left and the channel
4 input signal is automatically panned hard right. In this case, the
“Balance” knob controls the relative levels of the paired input signals.
When the knob is placed at its center (detented) position, both signals
are at equal strength. When moved left of center, the channel 3 input
remains at the same strength but the channel 4 input is attenuated; when
the knob is moved right of center, the channel 4 input remains at the
same strength but the channel 3 input is attenuated. When placed fully
counter-clockwise, only the channel 3 input is heard (panned hard left);
when placed fully clockwise, only the channel 4 input is heard (panned
hard right). For more information, see the “Using Pan/Balance” section
on page 28 in this manual.
8: Level (white) - This knob determines the signal level being sent to the
main output. When both channels are connected in the stereo channel ,
this knob simultaneously controls the level of both inputs (the
relative
levels of the two can be adjusted with the Balance knob, as described
above). In practice, you will use the channel Level controls to
continuously adjust the levels of the various signals being blended
together by the MIXPAD 4. The “0” position of the knob indicates unity
gain (no level attenuation or boost). Moving the knob counterclockwise
from the “0” position causes the signal to be attenuated (at the very
bottom, it is attenuated infinitely—in other words, there is no sound);
moving it clockwise from the “0” position causes the signal to be boosted
by as much as 10 dB.
For best signal-to-noise ratio, all Level controls for channels
carrying signal should generally be kept at or near the “0” position.
Channels that are unused should have their gain controls kept fully
counterclockwise at their (minimum) level. See the “Setting the
Correct Gain Structure” section on page 23 in this manual for more
information.
