Tab. 17.1: Channel assignments 2-track
Every B-channel has its own LEVEL, PAN and HIGH and LOW EQ. MIX-B in fact is acting here like a totally
independent separate mixer, albeit with fewer facilities than the main mix. The primary stereo reverb/echo
unit's outputs have been patched into A-channels rather than an aux return, to enable them to be sent to the
MAIN MIX and MIX-B independently.
+ S48 is UP, i.e. MIX-B is NOT blended into the main mix.
+ Bringing the DAT back on aux 1 return P49 (as opposed to the 2-track or external inputs)
enables not only auditioning of DAT playback, but also balancing playback level against the
main mix, in case you also want to use it to play a pre-recorded intro tape to set the scene for
the coming performance.
+ Be sure to have aux return 1 turned all the way down or de-assigned when recording to DAT.
Otherwise expect massive and terminal (as far as the P.A. and gig are concerned) howlround.
