Input Section (Mono)
The input module contains a high quality balanced input that is used for the microphone and line level input signals.
Equalizer (Mono)
The equalizer on the input module is a four band design, incorporating two swept mid-range sections and fixed frequency shelving high and low frequency sections.
Aux Sends (Mono)
Auxiliary outputs have many uses and it is probably simplest to consider the auxiliaries as additional mixing buses. They can be used to send signal to an effect unit such as a reverberation device or to develop another mix for use as foldback or monitoring.
Routing (Mono)
Routing switches allow the signal to be sent to the various console outputs. In addition to the groups it is possible to send to the L/R (stereo) mix bus and the Center (mono) bus.
Fader (Mono)
The fader is the main signal level control for the channel, and is a long-throw type to give smooth control of the channel level. Note that the fader is calibrated and the normal operating position is expected to be close to the 0dB mark.
Input Section (Stereo)
This section includes phantom power and preliminary channel input
adjustments including: phase switching, level padding, sweepable gain and a
high pass filter assignment.
Equalizer (Stereo)
The equalizer on the stereo input module is a four band design, incorporating a swept lo-mid section, a swept hi-mid section and fixed frequency, shelving, high and low frequency sections.
Aux Sends (Stereo)
There are 8 auxiliary sends available on the console with the outputs located on the master module. Auxiliaries 7 and 8 may be used as a stereo pair if required.
Routing
(Stereo)
Routing switches allow the signal to be sent to the various console outputs. In addition to the groups it is possible to send to the L/R (stereo) mix bus and the Center (mono) bus.
Fader
(Stereo)
The fader is the main signal level control for the channel, and is a long-throw type giving smooth control of the channel level. Note that the fader is calibrated and the normal operating position is expected to be close to the 0dB mark.
Meters
The meter indicated the level of the group or matrix output. It has a PEAK reading characteristic.
Aux Send Masters
This adjusts the overall level of an auxiliary send.
Matrix
The Matrix allows independent variable level sends from a discreet input to
each of the group and main outputs
Stereo Returns
This is a high (line) level stereo input that can be routed to the left, right and mono mixes, the group buses an dauxiliaries 5, 6, 7, and 8 of the console. It could be used to bring a stereo tape machine into the console or the output of an effect device whether stereo or mono. The input of the effect device would normally be fed from an auxiliary output of the console.
Groups
Groups can either serve as independent outputs or as submasters to the main
mix.
Oscillator/Talkback
PINK/1K: This selects either the 1kHz sine wave oscillator or the pink noise source.
ON
This enables the oscillator and the pink noise source.
Master Module
The Master module contains the main stereo and centre outputs, two Auxiliary master outputs, the monitoring section and a talkback microphone input. In addition, two rear mounted 4 pin XLR connectors are provided for LITTLITESTM which can be used if the console is to be operated under low or poor lighting conditions.
