Setup Menu

The Setup menu's primary page contains function buttons described below as well as sub-menu links
listed in the sub-sections; Formats, Routing, Modules and Presets.
Active: Will select all 8 input channels for function and level grouping
Inactive: Adjustments to the input settings and level affect only the selected
channel only
When in Mic mode, the input level range enables the Mic Preamplifier's Gain to
be set anywhere from -10.0 dB to +60.0 dB. In the range from -10 to 0 dB, a 10
dB Pad is inserted.
When in Line, the input level range enables the Line Input Sensitivity to be
adjusted from +24 dBu down to + 4 dBu for 0 dBFS.
The + or - buttons give increments/decrements in 0.5 dB steps
Padding: a 10 dB Pad is automatically inserted in the Mic Preamp circuitry as
soon as the Gain is set to lower than 0 dB, without having to press a dedicated
Pad button. See the HORUS Web Control access under PreAmps page for
visual scaling details.
Switches the Input from the Mic-Pre amplifier to the line level circuitry. The
button will show the current input signal path it is set for (Mic or Line)
This button will turn on 48V phantom power for the channel. If it is lit, it means
that Phantom power is active. Only active on channels set to Mic.
Warning: 48V power should be disabled prior to connect/disconnect a
microphone and MUST be turned off prior to changing the connection in a
patch bay. Many such patch bays do short the Hot, Cold or both signals to
Ground during insertion or removal of the Jacks with the risk of deteriorating
permanently the protective resistors in the input of the Preamp circuitry. If an
AD module input circuitry is damaged, following such a short, it will end up
permanently having inaccurate gain levels, distortion or even no signal at all on
some channels. That would require hardware replacements at your own cost,
since such damage is not covered by our warranty.
Phase invert button. When lit, it inverts the polarity of the selected input signal.
Low cut filter 80 Hz. Second order, 12 dB/octave.
Use the left << and right >> arrows in order to navigate through the banks of 8
inputs. Will only be active if more than one AD8(P) module is present in the
unit.
