Control Function
SLOPE switch Selects the low pass filter. Where, switch on
(digital trim only) (illuminated) = 12dB slope and switch off = 6dB
slope.
stage box control Adjusts the input gain of the remote amplifier in 5dB
knob steps, ranging from -5dB to +40dB. Note that the
stage box control knob on the control surface will
only adjust the gain currently selected to the GUI
input channel strip, that is, stage box or digital trim.
CHECK switch Monitors the mic amp input after the 30Hz filter, but
(stage box only) before any further processing. (The 30Hz subsonic
filter switch accesses the high pass filter on DL431
Mic Splitter when connected to a PRO1. In this case,
the gain steps would be 2.5dB from -2.5dB to
+45dB.)
30Hz subsonic Acts on remote amplifier (mic splitter) to remove very
filter switch low frequencies in the audio signal — usually caused
by noise on stage. This avoids wasting valuable
headroom trying to digitise it.
low pass control Adjusts frequency of low pass filter in the range 2kHz

Applies a 180° inversion of the input signal polarity
Phase switch
within the input amplifier, such that channel signal
will have opposite polarity to the input signal.
This is used to correct input signal phase problems
when trying to sum signals that are 180° out of
phase. For example, where two mics are facing each
other when using a mic on both the top and bottom of
a snare drum. Ordinarily, the two mics would be out
of phase - causing cancellation when the control
centre sums the two signals into the output.
Reversing the phase of one signal causes the mics to
have the same phase, thus avoiding cancellation.
Gain trim (digital Applies continuous trim adjustment (small digital
trim) control knob steps) of the input signal level in the range –40dB to
+20dB. Gives a further 60dB of fine adjustment
(DSP) on top of the remote amplifier gain setting.
This control knob on the input fast strips can be
controlling stage box gain, digital trim or delay,
depending on the current state of the swap.
