Operating The C•Control - Samson C-Control Owner's Manual

Operating the C Control
Once you have connected your stereo recorders, stereo sound sources and studio monitor speakers
you can begin to use, and enjoy the powerful features of the C control. The following section will take
you through the operation of the C control's switches, control knobs and operating functions.
Controls and Functions
14 POWER switch
Use the POWER switch to turn the C control on and off. When the POWER
switch is set to the on position, the unit will power up and the green LED on the
POWER switch will illuminate indicating the unit is ready for operation.
Source Assignment Switches
When you engage any of the Source assignment switches, their associated LED's will illuminate indi-
cating the signal connected to that Source input is on and will now be heard on all outputs including the
selected SPEAKER outputs, the HEADPHONE and the EXTERNAL CUE outputs. C control allows you
to monitor more than one stereo Source at the same time, therefore a Source assignment switch will
stay on when another is selected. Simply press the source assignment button a second time and the
Source will turn off.

Master Level Meter
The C control's master section includes an 6-segment LED LEVEL meter, which
displays the input level of the main left and right bus in decibels (dBs) from –30 to
Overload(OL). The signal displayed on the LEVEL meter shows the level of the
combined signals of all of the two track inputs. If the LEVEL meter displays a
clipped signal, then turn down the signal or signals being sent into the stereo bus.
