TAPE IN LEVEL
This pot will give the sound engineer the ability to manage the tape return
signal level from -
OUTPUT Assign to 1/2, 3/4, L/R
These switches allow the sound engineer to address the signal to the audio
path which he wants to. The odd/even numbered switches are used to send
the signal to sub-groups (then you can send their signal to L/R outs) while
L/R switch sends the signal directly to Main Mix output. Those switches can
be set in several ways.
PFL switch
This switch allows the sound engineer to control the TAPE IN signal. The PFL
(pre-fade listen) signal is pre-fader and stereo. This large switch is illuminated
to give you an immediate visual check of current status.
ST RTN level
This pot will give the sound engineer the ability to carefully manage the aux
return signal level from -
AUX 1-6
These pots will allow the sound engineer to send the FX return signal to Auxiliaries.
In this way you can send, e.g., to the lead singer monitor the reverb that affects
the entire mix.
BAL
This pot controls the balance between left and right signal coming from the effects
outputs. Its behaviour is similar to pan-pot, but the result is different since it doesn't
place the signal in stereo front, but it just manages the balance between the
outputs of the stereo effects unit. Of course if you connect a plug only to LEFT
(MONO) input it acts as a regular pan-pot.
MUTE
This switch is useful to mute that aux return signal when you don't need its
sound. This feature is important to reduce noise floor of effects units. This
switch will be lit when it is depressed (engaged).
PFL switch
This switch allows the sound engineer to control the aux return signal. The PFL
(pre-fade listen) signal is pre-fader and stereo. This large switch is illuminated
to give you an immediate visual Check of current status.
