Input/Output Channel Strip
The Input and Output Channel Meter, Gain, Mute, and Solo controls appear at the bottom of
all tabs except the Automix tab. These controls are described in the Input Section of this

Description
The DX1208 has eight analog and four S/PDIF digital input channels. Inputs 1-8 are balanced
mic/line level inputs with a max peak input level of +24 dBu, each having switchable phantom
power and adjustable preamplifier gain. A second set of stereo unbalanced inputs parallels
Inputs 5-8. Each Input has a left and right side that are first summed to mono, then summed
with the output of the mic/line preamplifier before A/D conversion. These inputs have a max
peak input level of +10 dBV, and have no analog gain control. All Input Channels have digital
Gain, Meter, Solo, and Mute controls which appear in the Channel Strip at the bottom of all
Device Window tabs except the Automix tab.

Selects the Input Channel that is controlled by the Input tab.
Input Channels can be given a Channel Name of up to 32
characters in length.
Controls the gain of the analog microphone preamplifier for
balanced Inputs 1-8; Mic Pre gain can be set to [0], [+20], [+40],
[+50], and [+60 dB]. Mic Pre gain does not affect unbalanced
Inputs 5-8.
Applies P48 phantom power to the eight balanced Analog Input
jacks.
Displays the instantaneous peak signal level of the Input Channel
after the analog microphone preamplifier, but before the Mute
switch and Fader.
Controls the digital (post A/D) gain of the Input Channel, prior to
routing to the DSP processes. Gain can be applied from [-99] to
[+20 dB] in 0.1dB steps using the Gain textbox, or from [-38] to
[+20] by dragging the Fader handle; dragging the Fader handle all
the way to the bottom sets the Gain to [-99 dB]. <
in the channel Meter to reset Gain to unity.
Mutes the Input Channel. The Mute is applied between the input
Meter and Fader.
Soloing an Input Channel mutes all Inputs that are not soloed;
Soloing an Output Channel mutes all Outputs that are not soloed.
However, Solos do not override existing Mutes, so any channel
that is both muted and soloed will not be heard. If both Input and
Output Channels are soloed at the same time, make sure that all
