Monitors
The two monitor sends per input channel have the same functionality as the auxes (see
“Auxes” on page 43). However, they have the following additional features:
They can be sourced pre-EQ.
They can be metered individually (see “Monitors” on page 67).
They can receive a contribution from the stereo returns (see “Stereo returns” on
page 66).
They have a latchable talk button (see “Talkback” on page 71).
Monitor section of the mono input channels
Either monitor send can be sourced pre-fader globally using the pre switch in the
output section (see “Monitors” on page 67).
4 Bass gain/freq control knob This dual-concentric control knob adjusts
the gain/frequency of the bass EQ:
gain The top control knob adjusts the gain of the bass band, which is
continuously variable from -15dB to +15dB with a centre detent of 0dB.
freq The bottom control knob adjusts the centre frequency of the bass
band, which is continuously variable from 20Hz to 200Hz.
5 EQ switch and red LED The EQ switch enables the EQ. With EQ disabled,
adjustment of the EQ controls has no effect. This can be used to compare
the sound with and without EQ. The red LED illuminates to show that EQ is
enabled.
