PEAK

Just before the signal becomes distorted
and loses definition, this warning light
will come on. When this LED lights up,
user should be aware that the input level
is too high. When it remains on or blinks
constantly, user should pressed the PAD
control 20 or turn down the channel EQ
15 in order to prevent signal from dis-
torting or losing definition.

CHANNEL EQUALIZER

These equalizers are designed for ad-
justing the tone of human voice or mu-
sic instrument, feedback control and
improve the live PA sound. No amount
of equalization however could correct
the frequency response curve of a poorly
designed sound system. Always begin
with the " 0" position and avoid exces-
sively cutting/boosting large segments of
the peculiar frequency, which will limit
the systems dynamic range or some
times increase the possibility of the un-
pleasant feedback sound.
HIGH
Turn the knob clockwise to boost high
frequency, adding crispness to cymbals,
vocals and electronic instruments. Turn
it counter-clockwise cuts the frequency,
reducing sibilance or hiss. The control
has a shelving response that gives 15dB
of boost or cut at 12KHz.
should be at the " 0" position when not
in use.
MID
Turn the knob clockwise to boost high
mid-frequency. The control has a shelv-
ing response that gives 15dB of boost
or cut at 2.5KHz. This allows some im-
provement of the signal in live perfor-
mance, because this mid band adds
clarity. The knob should be at the " 0"
position when not in use.
PHONIC CORPORATION
LOW
The control has shelving response that
giving 15dB of boost or cut at 80Hz.
Adding warmth to vocals or extra punch
to guitars, drums and keyboards by turn-
ing clockwise. Turning counter-clock-
wise to reduce stage rumble, hum or to
improve a mushy sound.
should be at the " 0" position when not
in use.

MON

This knob controls the level output of the
input channel to MONITOR. The LEVEL
knob 19 has no effect on this control
because signal is taken out of the chan-
nel before it reaches to the LEVEL con-
trol knob. Each MON can independently
send to the MONITOR for stage moni-
toring purposes. During performance,
the performer can use it to monitor his/
her voice as well as the sound of music
instruments connected to the unit. This
allows performers to listen to one an-
other during performance. Additional to
the built-in amplifier for MONITOR out-
put, there is also MONITOR output jack
12 for connecting to external amplifier,
equalizer and etc.

EFX (EFFECT)

This knob controls the level output of the
input channel to DRIVE LEVEL 23 . The
LEVEL knob 19 affects the output of
this control because signal is taken out
The knob
of the channel after it has already gone
through the LEVEL control. Like the
MONITOR output, there is also an EFX
OUT for sending signal to external de-
vices like an external effect processor.
When using external effect processor,
one can use the EFX OUT to send out
signal and use the AUX IN in the INPUT
TO MAIN section for getting processed
signal back to the unit.
