23 - MON 1/2
These controls determine the amount of the summed L and R signal that is sent to the MON 1 or MON 2 summing bus.
The signal gets always split pre fader. For more details on the functioning of these controls, please refer to the Input
Mono section of this owner’s manual.
24 - BAL
The function of the BAL control of the stereo channels is equivalent to the PAN control’s function of the monaural chan-
nels. If you turn the rotary control all the way to the right, the right signal is outputted to the right output while the signal
of the left channel is muted. When the control is set to its center position, the L/R signals are present with their equal
intensity on the corresponding outputs. Whenever stereo sound sources are connected to a stereo input, you should
leave the BAL control at the center position or make only minor adjustments in either direction. In case a microphone
or another monaural sound source is connected, the BAL controls function absolutely identical to the PAN controls of
the monaural input section.
25 - MUTE
The MUTE button mutes the input signal post fader, including all FX/AUX/MON sends. PFL and Signal/Peak stay opera-
tional.
HINT: Use the MUTE button for muting temporarily not used input channels without changing the settings of the
FX/AUX/MON controls and the channel fader.
26 - PFL
Engaging the PFL button sums the stereophonic audio signal of the corresponding input channel and routes the result-
ing monaural signal to the headphones bus. You are able to listen to the audio signal via the PHONES output. The meter
instrument in the master section is simultaneously switched, so that the left LED-chain indicates the level of the actually
chosen channel (in dBu), which allows optimally matching the level of the signal source.
You can assign as many channels as you want to the phones summing bus at the same time. The volume levels of the
individual signals are not affected by the setting of the corresponding channel faders (Pre Fader Listen). This gives you
the opportunity to set the level and the EQ of a channel, without the need to include it in the master mix, i.e. you can
leave the channel fader down or even engage the MUTE button.
27 - SIG/PK
The stereo SIG/PK indicator function provides independent analysis of left and right channel audio signals. The respec-
tive highest level reading is indicated, assuring that neither one is already driven into clipping. For further information
on how to use this indicator most efficiently, please refer to the description of the monaural channel’s identical feature.
28 - F
ADER
The channel fader is used to simultaneously adjust both levels (volumes) of the stereo signal. Functioning and specifi-
cations are totally similar to the monaural channel fader, as previously described under INPUT/MONO.
