Moving from left to right:
The first twelve lower jacks (49-60) are the inputs to the
External Input Selectors. Up to 6 EXTernal stereo sources can
be fed to the console's monitoring system. The three inputs
to Ext1 are labelled on the patch as Ext1 In - (A) L & R, (B) L &
R and (C) L & R. Ext 2 is labelled in a similar manner. See the
Tutorial section for how to select from these 6 inputs.
Jacks 13-20 carry the 8 Aux Send bus outputs which have
their master gain controls in the upper part of the Master
controller, labelled A1 to A8. The lower jacks can be wired to
effects device inputs, for example.
Jacks 21-36 are the Main Stereo outputs, also mentioned in
the Tutorial section. Each Stereo bus has three (3) separately
buffered outputs, which are labelled on the patch bay as ST1
Out1 - (A) L & R, (B) L & R and (C) L & R for Stereo 1. Stereo 2
outputs are labelled as ST2 Out, etc. These are the console's
main mix outputs. Each Stereo bus has insert points that are
placed pre-fader and fed from the "C" outputs (ST1 Out (C),
ST2 Out (C)). When an insert is not being used, each ST Out
(C) acts as a third balanced feed for each of the stereo buses.
The returns for the inserts are labelled ST1 Out (Ins Rtn) (C) L
& R and ST2 Out (Ins Rtn) (C) L & R.
Jacks 37 - 42 are the three main Monitor outputs which can
be normalled to power amplifier inputs fed from the lower
jacks, 85-90. Each of the 3 monitor outputs, A, B and C can be
fed with any or all of the following sources: Aux 1-8, EXT1,
EXT2, ST1 and ST2. Normally the monitors work as three
independent simultaneous outputs, each sending its own
source selection to its output via the level control. There is
only one set of EXT selectors, so whatever combination of
EXT A, B and C inputs has been selected will be picked up by
each monitor when EXT is selected as a source to the
monitors.
These outputs can also be used as a simple 1:1 stereo line
level submixer. The submixer is capable of summing up to 6
separate stereo sources, via the EXTernal inputs, down to
one stereo output (Monitor Output) via a level control (which
gives unity gain when fully turned up).
