How to get here:
(MENU knob once  ENG Setup button  Output Levels button)
TA-5 & XLR-3 Output Bus Levels
Each of the 6 main output busses can be independently selected to one of the following output levels: 0dBu (line
level), -10dBu (tape / consumer level), -35dBu (mic level). For example, output bus 1 can feed the XLR #1 out at
0dBu and the TA5 #1 at -35 at the same time.
Mono & Tape Output Bus Levels
These outputs are continuously adjustable in 1 dB steps from -12dBu to +21dBu.

Advanced Setup page

Page purpose:
How to get here:
(MENU knob once  ENG Setup button  Advanced Setup button)
PREVENT EMPTY PAN button – Set to ON, removes the blank option while in ENG mode, leaving only L, C, R.
DISPLAY SPEED button – Should always be set to FAST.
NOTE: Currently the display is updated every frame when possible. When display speed is set to SLOW, it
does not try to update quite that fast. This is in case you load up the machine with tons of effects and
crosspoints and/or run at 96 kHz and find that the user interface is getting hard to use. It is just a
precautionary measure.
The display will also automatically slow down when mirroring or when the unit needs more horsepower for
recording a lot of tracks.
This page manages the audio levels for the specified outputs.
This page is for changing aspects of the machine that most people will not need to do.
