11-12
A
These rotary controls are used to adjust the level of the 9–10 and
11–12 input signals that are sent to the Stereo bus for mixing.
0 10
They're also used in conjunction with the GROUP ASSIGN
switches to adjust the level of the 9–10 and 11–12 input signals
that are assigned to groups.

B
4
These switches are used to assign (i.e., send) the 9–10 and 11–12
input signals to the groups. The left-channel signal is sent to odd
Groups 1 and 3, while the right-channel signal is sent to even
Groups 2 and 4. The 9–10 and 11–12 input signals could be the
CUE
MASTER
stereo output signals from another mixer or external effects pro-
cessor. Note that the 9–10 and 11–12 input signals are always sent
5
to the Stereo bus for mixing regardless of these switch settings.

CUE MIX
These rotary controls adjust the levels of the group signals that
6
are fed to the tracks.

This fader is used to adjust the level of the stereo signal that is
SELECT
sent to the STEREO OUT jacks. For optimum performance this
2TR IN
fader should be positioned about the 7–8 mark.

This switch is used to feed the CUE bus signals through to the
STEREO
Stereo bus (i.e., the CUE bus signals are mixed with the
MIC/LINE signals). It's used for multi-source mixing at mix-
CUE
down.
G
These switches are used to select the signal source for the MON-
MONITOR
ITOR OUT and headphones.
LEVEL
2TR IN—This switch selects the 2TR IN as the monitor source.

This allows you to monitor the output of a stereo master
recorder during mixdown.
MAX
GROUP—These switches select the Group buses as the moni-
tor source. This allows you to monitor signals assigned to tracks.

When only the [1–3] or [2–4] switch is pressed, the monitor sig-
8
nal is mono. Press both switches to monitor stereo signals.
