OINPUT Selector
These are found on the top panel, at 'íhe
top of each channel of your Studio 8's mixer.
The switch has three settings:
MIC: Allows the signa! present at the MIC
INput on the back panel to enter the mixQr
channel.
LINE: Allows the signa! present at the LINE
IN connector on the back panel to enter the
mixer channel.
RMX: Allows the playback signa! from the
recorder to enter the mixer channel. Track one
of the recorder goes to channel one of the
mixer; track two to channel two, etc.
0TRIM and OL Indicator
The OL indicator lets you know that the
signa! is too hot. Use the TRIM to adjust the in-
coming MIC signa! to a leve! that does not re-
gister, continuously, on the OL indicator. The
OL is located after the EQ section so that if a
signa! is boosted to the point of overload by an
EQ control it will register on the OL indicator.
0 EQualizer
The EQ system in your Studio 8 is a three-
band sweep-type parametric system. It allows
you to select the specific frequency range you
wish to affect and the degree to which it will
be affected, plus or minus 15 dB. The high
frequency control has a range variable from
2.5 kHz to 15 kHz. The mid-range operates
between 500 Hz to 5 kHz. The bass control
has a range from 50 Hz to 1 kHz.
OACCESS SENDand ACCESS RCV
This access point allows you to add signa!
processing to an individual channel without
affecting the signa! in any other channel.
ACCESS SEND may aiso be used as an extra
send for a cue mix, or recorder send, since
the mixer channel's signa! aiso continúes to
flow through the rest of the mixer if the
ACCESS RCV is not connected. Using ACCESS
RCV routes all the channel's input signa! into
the effect loop.
O Input Channel Fader
This linear, slide, fader varíes the amount of
signa! going to the PAN control, the EFF
submix, the ASSIGN switches, the STEREO
MASTER Faders, and the AUX submix if it is
switched to the POST position.
©PAN
This control allows you to create stereo
mixes by sending your channel's signal in
continuously variable degrees to the left (ODD
busses) or right (EVEN busses) sides of the mix.
©ASSIGN Switches
These four switches are used to send (assign)
a signal to any one, or a combination of all
eight PGM Busses. The signal is aiso sent to the
PGM MASTERS Faders, the PGM OUTputs, the
inputs of the MONITOR submix, and the tracks
of the recorder. These switches work in con-
junction with your PAN controls, which decide
how much signal goes to the left (ODD) or
right (EVEN) busses.
© L/R ASSIGN Switches
These are dual purpose switches. They send
(assign) your channel's signal to the STEREO
MASTER Fader and the Stereo Buss. This is
the normal condition for Remix. They can aiso
be used as a solo-in-place switch. Pressing
the L/R switch of a channel disconnects the
MONITOR, the channel whose L/R switch is
pressed will be the oniy signal present in the
Stereo Buss, the PHONES, and the MONITOR
OUT(s).
