Each channel is equipped with a MUTE button. Pressing this button is equal to
turning the fader down, which can mute the corresponding channel output except
for the channel INSERT send and SOLO (in PFL mode). And the MUTE LED will
illuminate.
Inside your MX1642, the audio signal is monitored in several different stages and
then sent to the PEAK LED. When the LED is red illuminated, it warns you that you
are reaching signal saturation and possible distortion, then you should reduce the
input level for avoiding distortion.

affects any mix other than the Control Room. The other three buttons can be
considered as signal assignment switches. Pressing the SUB1-2 will assign the
channel signal to Subgroup1/2, you can depend on the PAN switch to adjust
the amount of channel signal sent to the SUB1versus SUB2, when turns the
PAN to completely left, then the signal can be only controlled by Subgroup1

by PAN.
