SOLO
Press the SOLO switch to hear the signal on your headphones and simultaneously
see it on the monitor display ½). The corresponding LED lights up when the solo
function is activated.
CLIP
The CLIP LED lights up as soon as the channel's level is too high. In this case, turnthe
TRIM control to reduce the channel's input amplication until the LED goes out.
SIG
The SIG LED lights up when a channel's signal is higher than -20 dB. The LED is
not aected by the fader. The signals are indicated even when the fader is pulled
down and the channel is muted.
Fader
The channel fader governs the level of the channel signal as part of the main
mix(or submix)
1-2, 3-4, MAIN
The routing switch feeds the signal to the respective subgroup or the main mix
or both. Please note that when using the routing switch to route a stereo signal
to the subgroups the balance control needs to be centered so that the signal is
routed to two groups and remains in stereo.
5.3 Main section
5.3.1 MAIN A section
BAL(ANCE)
The BAL(ANCE) control adjusts the mix of the left and right output signal before
both signals are routed to the MAIN A output. This way the left and right volume
level of the mixer sumcan individually be adjusted if necessary.
MAIN MUTE
When the MAIN MUTE switch is pressed, all input channels are muted. The MUTE
LED lights up when the MUTE switch is pressed. Only the CD/TAPE signal will be
routed to the main mix. In this way, you can prevent the microphones from picking
up unwanted sounds or noise that would interfere with CD playback during a break.
The main mix and channel faders can remain in their normal positions while playing
back music from CD (usingthe CD/TAPE inputs, so you don’t lose your mix.
MAIN A
Use this high-precision MAIN fader to control the output level of the main mix.
MAIN B
Depending on the settings of the MAIN B section, the level of the Main B output is
aected by the MAIN A fader.
5.4 Level meters
Four high-resolution LED meters indicate the levels of the monitor buses' and
mixer sum's output signals. As soon as you have pressed the solo switch on the
mixing console, the monitor LED meter automatically shows the solo signal.
Themaster signal is alwaysindicated.
1 MON 2
The monitor meters indicate the levels of the monitor buses 1 and 2. In solo mode
(SOLO LED lights up) thePFL signal (mono, only left meter) or the AFL signal
(stereo, left and right meter) are shown. Thisdepends on the state of the PFL and
AFL switch inthe solosection.
SOLO
When a SOLO switch is pressed on the mixing console, not only the corresponding
LED lights up, but also the global SOLO LED. This way you can keep a cool head
when mixing live and don't have to check the whole console to see that one
SOLOswitch is active. Simultaneously this LED indicates that the monitor meters
are in solo mode.
MAIN
The high-precision level meter accurately indicates the output signal
level(MAINOUT A).
