MUTE switch mutes all post processing signals
exiting the channel (illuminates when mute is on). In
addition to scene recall, it can also be remotely muted
from auto mute masters.
2
SOLO B changes the operation of the SOLO
switch so that it routes signals to the Monitor "B"
section of the console. This switch also determines
which of the two sets of monitor sections (A or B) solo
mode controls, which affects switch operation. Mode
controls are PFL/AFL, solo-add-mode and solo-clear.
3
SOLO activates signal routing to the Monitor "A"
section of the console. Sends input channel signal to
PFL mono and AFL stereo buses. Solo system is
auto-cancelling so each new solo cancels the last one.
Input solos override any active VCA solos.
4
Motorised input fader controls the channel signal
level and provides instant feedback of level settings.
5
MON connects post-fader channel signal to mono
master bus. Integral LED illuminates to show that
switch is enabled.
6
pan rotary control adjusts the relative levels sent
to a left-right bus pair or the master left-centre-right
(LCR) buses. In SIS mode, it can also control the
'image' to give a constant power crossfade from LCR
to stereo.

mono level SIS image control knob.
In SIS mode, this image control modifies pan control
knob operation to place channel within a
three-speaker system. With mono level SIS image
control knob turned fully clockwise, pan operates in
full LCR, where centre panned signal (pan set to c

position) routes to centre speaker only (no signal in
left and right speakers). With mono level SIS image
control knob turned fully anti-clockwise, pan operates
as stereo, where centre panned signal (pan set to c
position) routes to left and right speakers at equal
power. All other mono level SIS image control knob
positions generate a composite blend of stereo and
LCR panning systems so that optimum degrees of
centre image focus and speaker power can be
obtained. With mono level SIS image and pan
control knobs both centred, the channel signal is
routed to all three speakers with equal power.
Constant power is maintained at all times so that the
'image' can be adjusted during the show without a
perceived change in level.

mode, which operates with pan and mono level SIS
image control knobs. It acts as an LCR master bus
enable, overriding stereo and mono master bus
assignments. However, their status remains in
memory so that when SIS is disengaged, the MONO
and STEREO settings can return.
