MIXING
2
There are 5 mono input channels on DUDE. Each
channel has an input jack at the front. Mono or stereo
signal/cables can be inserted, but DUDE will only listen
to the left channel.
3
The signal of each channel goes thru the MUTE
switch button. When light at the channel is ON it
means the signal is passing and the channel is active.
note
The MUTE switch buttons are purely
mechanical which means that switching signals with
low harmonic content (sinewaves) might produce
audible clicks.
4
The gain knob for each channel sets amount of
amplification (center and CW) or attenuation (center
and CCW). Maximum gain per channel is +20dB / 10x
gain.
5
The signal from all channels is fed to the active
summing stage and mono to stereo splitter with
separate output buffers for Left and Right channels.
This allows the output jack to be used with headphones
and mono or stereo cables without any problem.
Both inputs and outputs are AC coupled.
