79. INPUT (1 - 16, 1 - 24, 1 - 32, ог 1 - 40)
These 16, 24, 32 or 40 female Х 85 apply signal to the
correspondingly numbered input modules. The nomi-
nal input level may vary from — 60 dBu to + 14 dBu
depending on the settings of the individual input GAIN
controls and PAD switches.
80. GROUP SUB IN (1 - 8)
These eight female XLR connectors apply signal di-
rectly to the group mixing busses (ahead of the Group
Master Faders). They are used for "chaining" another
mixing console's group outputs into this console, with
this console serving as the master for both consoles.
81. AUX SUB IN (1 - 6)
These six female XLR connectors* apply signal di-
rectly tothe auxiliary mixing busses (ahead ofthe rotary
Aux Master controls). They are used for "chaining"
another mixing console's aux send outputs into this
console, with this console serving asthe master for both
consoles.
*NOTE:
AUX SUB IN connectors inthe PM1800-16 are 1/4-inch
T/R/S balanced phone jacks.
82. AUX RETURN (1 through 4, 1/ МОМО and В)
These eight female XLR connectors accept auxiliary
return signals. Each pair of LIMONO and В connectors
can be used for a stereo return, ог the L/MONO соп-
nector may be used for a monaural return (provided the
corresponding front-panel MONO switch is engaged
[28]). They may be used as auxiliary line inputs if they
are not being used for effects returns.
83. CUE CONTROL (CUE IN, CUE CONTROL)
CUE IN and CUE CONTROL are 1/4" (6.33 mm)
Tip/Ring/Sleeve phone jacks designed to link the cue
systems of two PM1800 consoles (or a PM1800 with a
PM3000). CUE IN applies audio (which should come
from CUE OUT of another console) directly to the cue
mixing bus. CUE CONTROL provides direct access to
the console's cue/solo control bus. It serves as either
an input or an output. When the CUE CONTROL jacks
of two consoles are interconnected, pressing an input
CUE/SOLO switch or any CUE switch on one console
causes both consoles to enter the cue (or solo) mode.
Provided that CUE IN is linked to the other console's
CUE OUT, all cued or soloed signals can be monitored
by the "master" console.
84. GROUP INSERT OUT (1 - 8)
These eight unbalanced 1/4" (6.33mm) Tip/Sleeve
phone jacks output the signal from the group mixing
busses just ahead of the Group Master faders. These
jacks may be used as auxiliary group outputs to a
multitrack tape recorder or another console. They are
intended, however, for sending the group signals to
auxiliary signal processors (compressors, graphic
EQs, etc).
85. GROUP INSERT IN (1 - 8)
These eight unbalanced 1/4" (6.33mm)
Tip/Ring/Sleeve phone jacks apply signal to the Group
Master faders. These jacks accept the return from any
auxiliary signal processor used on the overall group
mixing bus signal.
2-21
86. AUX INSERT OUT (1 - 6)
These six unbalanced 1/4" (6.33mm) Tip/Sleeve
phone jacks are nearly identical to the GROUP INSERT
OUT jacks, except they output signal from just ahead
of the AUX SEND rotary master level controls.
87. AUX INSERT IN (1 - 6)
These six unbalanced 1/4" (6.33mm) Tip/Ring/Sleeve
phone jacks are nearly identical to the GROUP INSERT
IN jacks, except they return signal to a point just ahead
of the AUX SEND master rotary level controls.
(The
circuit is unbalanced even though these are T/R/S
jacks.)
88. INPUT CHANNEL INSERT OUT (1 - 16, 1 - 24, 1 - 32,
or 1 - 40)
These 16, 24, 32 or 40 unbalanced 1/4" (6.33 m)
Tip/Sleeve phone jacks output the signal from the input
channel (just after the GAIN control, PAD and polarity
switch but before the EQ orfader*). Nominal output level
is —6 dBu (388 mV). These jacks may be used as
auxiliary outputs to another console or as direct outs
to a multitrack tape machine. They are intended, how-
ever, for sendingthe input channel signal to an auxiliary
signal processor (compressor, graphic EQ, noise gate,
etc). INSERT OUT is always "live" whether or not the
channel is on.
89. INPUT CHANNEL INSERT IN (1 - 16, 1 - 24, 1 - 32,
or 1 - 40)
These 16, 24, 32 or 40 unbalanced 1/4"
Tip/Ring/Sleeve phone jacks apply signal to the input
channel just ahead of the EQ and fader. Nominal input
level is — 6 dBu (388 mV). These jacks are "normalled"
sothat inserting a plug interrupts the internal signal flow
through the channel, instead bringing in the return from
an auxiliary signal processor.
90. AUX SEND (1 - 6)
These six male XLR connectors output signal from
the six auxiliary mixing busses, just after the Aux
Master LEVEL controls. They may be used for
echo/effects sends, for stage foldback (stage monitors),
for auxiliary mono or stereo program feeds to remote
locations and/or tape recorders, and so forth.
91. GROUP OUT (1 - 8)
These eight male XLR connectors output signal from
the eight group mixing busses, just after the Group
Master Faders. They may be used for submixed feeds
to a remote console (і.е., to a stage monitor console
or a broadcast remote), for feeds to a multitrack tape
recorder, or for feeds to a multi-zone sound system,
depending upon the application.
92. MATRIX OUT (1 - 4)
These four male connectors output signal from the
four 8:1 matrix mixes, after the MATRIX MASTER con-
trols and ON/off switches. They may be used for feeding
mono or stereo tape recorders, multiple zones of a
sound system, multiple sound systems, or remotes,
depending upon the application. In some instances,
these outputs can be used for effects sends or for
monitors.
