1 AUX MASTERS

Each of the three AUX outputs has a master level control which sets the output level of the combined Aux
signals from the channels, and an associated AFL switch.  Just as the Channel PFL switches allow 

pre-fade

listening

, so you can monitor each AUX output 

after the level control

 by pressing the AFL switch (when PFL

mode is selected by the SOLOMODE switch), allowing you to determine what level is leaving the output
connector.  This routes the AUX output signal to the MONITOR or PHONES, replacing any existing signal which
is selected.  The METERS also switch from the selected source to display the PFL/AFL signal and the PFL/AFL
LED lights to warn that a PFL or AFL switch is pressed.  When you release the switch the Monitor swaps back
to the previous source.

2 FX MASTER

The FX master control sets the overall level of the FX sends from the channels before the input of the
LEXICON® Digital Effects Processor.  An associated AFL switch allows the signal to be monitored in the same
way as the Aux masters (see above).
Note: When FX AFL switch is pressed, the meters become the Lexicon Input level indicators.

3 SUB MASTER FADERS & OUTPUTS

The SUB MASTER FADERS set the final level of the SUB L & R outputs.  These should normally be set close to
the ‘0’ mark if the input GAIN settings have been correctly set, to give maximum travel on the faders for
smoothest control.

4 SUB TO MIX

The SUB mix may be used to provide alternative outputs from the mixer, or, by pressing SUB TO MIX the SUB
L & R master faders may be used as audio subgroups, setting the level of a combination of input channels
which are added to the main mix under the control of a pair of faders.

5 SUB INSERTS

Each unbalanced, pre-fade insert point is a break in its Sub signal path, allowing limiters, compressors,
special EQ or other signal processing units to be added in the signal path.  The Insert is a 3-pole ‘A’ gauge jack
socket which is normally bypassed.  When a jack is inserted, the signal path is broken.

6 MIX MASTER FADERS & OUTPUTS

The MASTER FADERS set the final level of the MIX L & R outputs.  These should normally be set close to the
‘0’ mark if the input GAIN settings have been correctly set, to give maximum travel on the faders for smoothest
control. The MONO SUM OUTPUT carries a mono sum of the Mix L and Mix R output signals.

7 MIX INSERTS

Each unbalanced, pre-fade insert point is a break in its Main Mix signal path, allowing limiters, compressors,
special EQ or other signal processing units to be added in the signal path.  The Insert is a 3-pole ‘A’ gauge jack
socket which is normally bypassed.  When a jack is inserted, the signal path is broken.
