for CUE SENDS.
Each of the 6 SEND BUSSES can be selected from a POST-FADER
or a PRE-FADER point.
SENDS I and 2 are controlled by 45rnrn. conductive plastic
linear faders and are AUTOMATION-CA PABLE .
SENDS 3 and 4 have individual level controls.
SENDS 5 and 6 are controlled by a singl e level control
followe d by a Pan Pot between the two busses.
A MASTER trim pot for each indiv idual SEND is located on the
CONTROL ROOM MONITOR module.
A"WET" switch changes the
PRE-( fader)
position of SENDS 3 and
4 to CHANNEL BUSS OUT position. TH I S IS THE ROUTING USED TO
FEED AN ECHO CHAMBER WHEN RECORDING ECHO ON THE MASTER TAPE .
The ECHO RETURN SYSTEMS are described elsewhere in this book .
A MON ITOR INPUT PROGRAMMING switch is provided o n the STUDIO
