NOTE
• If you are inserting a processor into a channel that handles a stereo source, assign the R channel
insert-out and insert-in to the R input and output of the processor in the same way as steps 5 and
6.
• For details on editing the parameters, refer to the next section "Editing the Premium Rack
parameters."
• Adjust the digital gain and the processor parameters so that the signal does not reach the
overload point at the input or output stage of the processor.
 Mounting a processor
There are two ways to mount each processor:
• DUAL .....................The processor is used on two mono channels.
• STEREO ................The processor is used on one stereo channel.
The DUAL button and STEREO button indicate how many rack space units are occupied by
the Premium Rack processor.
The U76 occupies two rack spaces. Other processors occupy one rack space. If you mount a
two-space Premium Rack processor in the rack, you will be unable to mount any more
processors below those rack spaces. Also, you cannot mount a two-space processor in an
even-numbered rack.
