LEVEL CONTROL
This control sets the input level for the microphone or line-level device. At the fully anti-clockwise position there will be no sound. As
the control is moved in a clockwise direction the level will be gradually increased until, at the fully clockwise position, the level will be
at its maximum.
CARE!: This signal is routed to the master outputs POST [MASTER] level control -e.g. the output level of the microphone
or line-level device will be un-affected by the [MASTER] level control. It is similarly routed to the booth outputs (unless the
mic defeat feature described above is engaged).
EQ -LOW CONTROL
This control adjusts the bass equalisation of the microphone/line-level sound. At the 12 o’clock, centre position the low EQ will be flat
(no cut or boost). As the control is moved anti-clockwise the low frequencies will be progressively cut until, at the fully anti-clockwise
position the maximum low frequency cut will be applied (-15dB). As the control is moved clockwise from the centre position the low
frequencies will be progressively boosted until, at the fully clockwise position the maximum low frequency boost will be applied
(+15dB@100Hz).
EQ -HIGH CONTROL
This control adjusts the treble equalisation of the microphone or line-level sound. At the 12 o’clock, centre position the high EQ will
be flat (no cut or boost). As the control is moved anti-clockwise the high frequencies will be progressively cut until, at the fully anti-
clockwise position the maximum high frequency cut will be applied (-15dB). As the control is moved clockwise from the centre
position the high frequencies will be progressively boosted until, at the fully clockwise position the maximum high frequency boost
will be applied (+15dB@10kHz).
MIC INSERT SOCKET (rearcon)
This 1/4” jack on the rearcon can be used to route the post-EQ signal through an external effects processor. See the mic/line insert
lead on page 36 for connection details.
