(MONO INPUT CHANNEL CONTINUED)
SOLO Switch
When engaged, the yellow LED illuminates, indicating the input channel is
assigned to the SOLO bus. The SOLO switch has a “momentary” action that acti-
vates a logic control switch. Pressing the switch repeatedly will assign the input
channel on or off the SOLO bus. You can use the SOLO LEVEL control to adjust
the overall volume to the SOLO Bus.
MUTE 3/4 OUTPUT Switch
The 3/4 MUTE switches are used to assign the channels to either the main LEFT
and RIGHT MIX bus, or the secondary, 3/4 stereo bus. Any channels that have
the 3/4 switch pressed in (the LED is on) will be heard in the 3/4 outputs. If you
are mixing in stereo and not connecting anything to the 3/4 outputs, you can use
the 3/4 switches as mute switches to turn the channel on or off. In recording appli-
cations, you can use 3/4 switches with left and right panning to assign a channel
to either the 3 or 4 bus outputs for sending to an input of a recorder. You can also
mix the 3/4 bus with the LEFT and RIGHT mix bus by using the 3/4 to MIX switch,
located in the master section above the 3 /4 OUTPUTS faders, allowing you to
subgroup channels. In this mode, you can assign channels to the 3/4 bus and use
the 3/4 OUTPUT faders to sub-mix those channels. More information on the 3/4 to
MIX switch can be found later in this manual.
FADER
The MDR10’s 60mm input FADER controls the overall channel level. The input
FADER features an audio taper and no detents for smooth fades.

STEREO - DUAL/MONO INPUT CHANNEL SECTION
The MDR10’s input channels seven through ten are
STEREO or DUAL MONO. These channels can be used
for stereo inputs, and since they have separate faders for
left and right, they can be used as dual mono inputs. The
equalizers and auxiliary are set up vertically as shown in
the following diagram.
The following section details each part of the MDR10’s
STEREO/DUAL MONO INPUT CHANNELS including the
2-BAND EQ, AUX sends, PAN and LEVEL controls. The
input channels seven through ten on the MDR10 feature
high quality, discrete transistor pre-amp providing trans-
parency and extended dynamic range. These inputs fea-
ture a “combie” (combination) connector which can accept
a standard XLR mic cable for microphone level signals, or
a standard 1/4" phone cable, either balanced (TRS – TIP/
RING/SLEEVE) or unbalanced (TS – TIP/SLEEVE) for line
level signals.
