PFL switch sends mono pre-fader listen (PFL)
solo bus signals to headphones and local monitor
outputs. Integral LED illuminates to indicate switch is
enabled. With PFL switch disabled (LED
extinguished), stereo after fader listen (AFL) solo bus
signals are sent to headphones and local monitor
outputs.
PFL and AFL levels are adjustable via the pfl level and
afl level control knobs; see "afl, pfl and talk back" on
page 115.

ADD switch allows multiple channel access to
solo buses. When solo add mode is off, pressing a
solo switch cancels any currently active solos. Multiple
solos, for example, stereo left and right signals, can
be monitored in this mode, provided solo switches are
pressed at approximately the same time. When solo
add mode is on, auto-cancelling is defeated, which
allows multiple channel or output soloing. In this
mode, input solos have priority over output solos and
VCA solos, and will temporarily override them. When
input solo is cancelled, output solo or VCA solos will
return. Integral LED illuminates to show that switch is
enabled.

CLEAR switch illuminates when a solo switch is
