Stereo/Mono Operation of Input Gain and Monitor Select (DIPSwitch 9)
This defines whether the unit operates the input gain and monitor functions as a stereo
pair or as mono channels.
Mode
DIPSwitch 9
Description
Stereo
ON
When ON, the gain applied to input 1 using pot
1 also alters the gain for input 2.
Also when ON, the headphone monitor outputs
a stereo signal made up of either Input 1 & 2 or
Input 3 & 4.
Mono
OFF
When OFF, the gain of each channel is
controlled individually by a gain pot.
In Mono Mode the selected signal is sent to left
and right earpieces of the headphone output.
Monitor Attenuation (DIPSwitch 10)
This defines whether the monitor signal is attenuated by 12dB. This is useful if you’re using
low impedance headphones which are too loud in everyday use.
