    The graph below illustrates the effect of maximum Drive on a sine wave. Width - A unique feature, the elara.6 incorporates an M-S Stereo Width encoder circuit with easy variable control. This circuit creates a Mid-Channel by combining the LeB and Right stereo signal, and a Side-Channel by subtrac!ng the LeB and Right stereo signal.

    Each channel strip features two Auxiliary Sends, dual Input (Line or RIAA), a powerful 4- Band equaliser, dual Cues and a smooth 45mm linear fader. Unique to the elara.6 is the ability to easily convert the mixer from Fader to Rotary by swapping out the fader tray for the alternate type.

    Main Meters - Two, ten point peak reading LED meters provide a visual indica!on of the Mix buss level. Although the elara.6 has a considerable 28dB of headroom, and is unlikely to suffer from clipping due to high signal levels, it is recommended to keep the average signal level between –3 and +6.
