1 GAIN Control
Adjusts the input signal level. To get the best balance between
the S/N ratio and the dynamic range, adjust the level so that the
2
peak indicator ( ) comes on only at about maximum input
level.
The –60 to –16 scale indicates the MIC-input adjustment level.
The –34 to +10 scale indicates the LINE-input adjustment
level.
2 PEAK Indicator
Detects the peak level of the post-equalizer signal, and lights
up red when the level reaches 3 dB below the clipping level.
On stereo input channels equipped with XLR jacks (CHs 9/10
and 11/12), detects both the post-equalizer and post-mic-amp
peak levels, and lights up red if either of these levels reaches 3
dB below the clipping level.

Switch (High Pass Filter)
This switch toggles the HPF on or off. To turn the HPF on,
press the switch in ( ). The HPF cuts frequencies below
80 Hz. (But note that regardless of the switch setting, the mixer
does not apply this HPF to the line inputs of stereo input chan-
nels.)
4 Equalizer
• Monaural (CHs 1 to 8)
This three-band equalizer adjusts the channel's high, mid,
and low frequency bands. Setting the knob to the
produces a flat frequency response. Turning the knob to the
right boosts the corresponding frequency band, while turning
to the left cuts the band. The following table shows the EQ
type, base frequency, and maximum cut/boost for each of the
three bands.
Band Type Base Frequency Maximum Cut/Boost

250 Hz – 5 kHz
MID Peaking
LOW Shelving
• Stereo channels (CHs 9/10, 11/12, 13/14, 15/16)
This four-band equalizer adjusts the channel's high, hi-mid,
lo-mid, and low frequency bands. Setting the knob to the
position produces a flat frequency response. Turning the knob
to the right boosts the corresponding frequency band, while
turning to the left cuts the band. The following table shows
the EQ type, base frequency, and maximum cut/boost for
each of the four bands.
