Control Section
32. MAIN LEVEL
Control
This knob adjusts the
main output level at the
MAIN OUT XLRs [9]
(and to the RCA Main
Outs [11] when the
LIVE/RECORD switch
[12] is out). (Remem-
ber, when the LIVE RE-
CORD switch is pushed
in, the RCA Main Outs
are not affected by the
MAIN LEVEL control.)
33. BOOTH LEVEL
Control
This knob adjusts
the output level at the
BOOTH outputs [8].
34. STEREO/MONO Switch
With this switch up, the BOOTH outputs [8] provide
a stereo left and right output of the main mix. Push the
switch in to combine the left and right signals to mono if
you only have one booth monitor speaker.
35. FX SEND LEVEL Control
This knob controls the amount of signal being sent to
FX SEND outputs [6]. Adjust this knob to provide an
appropriate input signal level to your external effects
processor (or whatever you have connected to the FX
SENDs). It ranges from off to +13 dB at maximum.
Note: The FX SENDs are affected by the TRANSFORM
switches [40], so if you mute a PGM channel with the
TRANSFORM switch, the FX SEND for that PGM chan-
nel is muted as well.
36. FX RETURN LEVEL Control
This adjusts the signal level coming from your exter-
nal effects processor via the FX RETURN jacks [7]. Use
it to adjust the processed signal going to the main mix
bus. It ranges from off to +13 dB at maximum.

37. PHONES LEVEL Control
This controls the volume of the PHONES output from
off to maximum gain.
Turn it to minimum before connecting and
putting on headphones. Increase it slowly to
a safe listening level. See page 17.
38. PGM/MAIN Switch
Use this switch to select the source for the head-
phones signal. When the switch is up (PGM position),
the signal is tapped just after the BAL control [30] on
the PGM channels. You can use the PGM SOURCE cross-
fader [39] to fade between PGM 1 and PGM 2.
When the switch is down (MAIN position), the signal
is tapped from the Main Mix bus, just before the MAIN
LEVEL control [32].
39. PGM SOURCE Cue Crossfader
When the PGM/MAIN switch [38] is up (in the PGM
position), you can use this crossfader to listen to PGM
1 and PGM 2 in the headphones. When the crossfader
is all the way to the left, PGM 1 is heard in the head-
phones. When the crossfader is all the way to the right,
PGM 2 is heard in the headphones. When the knob is in
the center, the headphones get an even mix of PGM 1
and 2.
Note: When the PGM/MAIN switch is down (MAIN
position), this control has no effect on the PHONES
output.
