Center Fader; Solo - Mackie SR40.8 Owner's Manual

CENTER FADER

Point Before: MAIN INSERTS
Point After: MAIN OUTPUTS
The CENTER mix is off with this Fader fully
down, the "U" marking is unity gain, and fully
up provides 10dB additional gain.
Remember that the CENTER mix is not actu-
ally related to the LEFT and RIGHT mix (except
that they usually wind up singing to the same
audience). Ride the CENTER Fader as needed,
regardless of the position of the FADER LINK
switch and LEFT and RIGHT Faders.
