automix (optional)

automix
The automix option is comprised of a set of eight mono channels that have auto-
matic gain-shared mixing capability. The circuitry determines which input is the loud-
est and gives it dominance in the mix by reducing the level of other assigned inputs,
based on their individual instantaneous levels. Adding priority will cause a channel to
dominate, even if its level is lower than others. Also included is an adjustable thresh-
old, soft knee compressor with gain reduction metering that functions without affect-
ing the automatic mixing priorities (patent applied for).
compressor threshold
This control sets the point at which the soft-knee compression begins. The status
of this knob does not affect the the priority status of the channel when the automix
feature is engaged.
meter
This meter array indicates the amount of gain reduction activity.
priority
This switch provides added weight to a speaker or performer, by elevating the input
above other automix inputs.
When this button is in the “IN” position, priority is automaticallly given to this chan-
nel over others that are not pressed “IN” by signaling the automix circuitry that the
input signal is louder than it actually is.
automix enable
This button places the channel in the automix function.
When button is in the “OUT” position, the channel operates as any other mono
channel with the exception of compression.
When button is in the “IN” position, the channel is operating in the automix function,
regardless of bus assignment.
