Solo-Safe
Solo-Safe is used with the SIP mode and has no effect in APL or PFL modes. SIP mode
effectively mutes all channels except the soloed channel. Designating a channel Solo-
Safe allows it through to the mix busses even when another signal is soloed. Solo signals
can be heard with effects if the effects returns are designated Solo-Safe.
1. Press the Solo-Safe key in the Solo Control Panel.
2. Press the Chan Select key of the channel to make Solo-Safe.
The Chan Select key flashes to show it has been made Solo-Safe. The chan-
nel's Solo key also lights dimly when in Solo-safe mode.
3.
Press additional Chan Select keys.
4. Press the Solo-Safe key again or another Solo Control Panel key to exit the mode.
5.3.8
Backstop PFL
The System 5 faders have a backstop PFL switch past the bottom of their travel. Press
Solo Ctrl on the Center Section to open the Solo Control Panel and select Backstop
PFL to enable this feature. Pull and hold a fader past the bottom of its travel to route
the signal's PFL level to the Solo bus. Release the fader to cancel its routing to the Solo
bus. Backstop PFL does not affect normal solo operations and can be used on Control
Group and Multi Format master faders to PFL a group of channels. Deactivate Backstop
PFL in the Solo Control Panel to cancel the mode.
