Signal flow for input channels
● INPUT PATCH
This assigns an input signal to the input channel.
● ø (Phase)
Switches the phase of the input signal.
● HPF (High Pass Filter)
This is a high pass filter that cuts the region below the
specified frequency.
● ATT (Attenuator)
Attenuates/boosts the level of the input signal.
● 4 BAND EQ (4 band equalizer)
A parametric EQ with four bands; HIGH, HIGH MID,
LOW MID, and LOW.
● DYNAMICS 1
This is a dynamics processor that can be used for gating,
ducking, expander, or compressor.
● DYNAMICS 2
This is a dynamics processor that can be used as a com-
pressor, compander, or de-esser.
● LEVEL/DCA 1–8
Adjusts the input level of the channel.
● ON (On/off)
Turns the input channel on/off. If off, that channel is
muted.
● PAN
This adjusts the panning of the signal sent from the
INPUT channel to the STEREO bus. If necessary, you can
turn on PAN LINK in the BUS SETUP popup window so
that the setting of this parameter will also be applied to the
signal sent to two MIX or MATRIX buses that are set to
stereo.
● BALANCE
On ST IN channels, the BALANCE parameter is used
instead of PAN. The BALANCE parameter adjusts the
volume balance of the left/right signals sent from the ST
IN channel to the STEREO bus. If necessary, you can turn
on PAN LINK in the BUS SETUP popup window so that
the setting of this parameter will also be applied to the sig-
nal sent to two MIX or MATRIX buses that are set to ste-
reo.

● LCR (Left/Center/Right)
This sends the signal of the input channel as a three-chan-
nel output (the MONO (C) channel and the L/R channels)
to the STEREO bus / MONO bus.
● MIX ON/OFF (MIX send on/off)
This is an on/off switch for the signal sent from the input
channel to MIX buses 1–16.
● MIX LEVEL 1-16 (MIX send level 1–16)
This adjusts the send level of the signal sent from the input
channel to VARI type MIX buses 1–16. As the position
from which the signal is sent to the MIX bus, you can
choose from the following; immediately before ATT, pre-
fader, or post-fader.
● MATRIX ON/OFF (MATRIX send on/off)
This is an on/off switch for the signal sent from the input
channel to MATRIX buses 1–8.
● MATRIX LEVEL 1–8 (MATRIX send levels 1–8)
Adjusts the send level of the signal sent from the input
channel to MATRIX buses 1–8. As the position from
which the signal is sent to the MATRIX bus, you can
choose from the following; immediately before ATT, pre-
fader, or post-fader.
● INSERT (INPUT channels only)
You can patch the desired output/input ports to insert an
external device such as an effect processor. For the posi-
tion of the insert-out/insert-in point, you can choose
immediately before ATT, immediately before the fader, or
immediately after the [ON] key.
● DIRECT OUT (INPUT channels only)
This can be patched to any output port, and the input sig-
nal sent directly from that output port. For the position of
the direct output, you can choose immediately before
HPF, immediately before ATT, immediately before the
fader, or immediately after the [ON] key.
● METER
This meters the level of the input channel. You can switch
the position at which the level is detected.
