Front Panel D-5.5, D-5.5E, Midi Thru

Front Panel (D-5.5, D-5.5E)

AUX 2 Control (AUX 2)

This control determines the level of the input signal to be fed to the aux 2 buss. When in the center detent position the control is off, and no signal is assigned. Rotating the control counter-clockwise increases the

amount of pre-fader/post-EQ signal assigned to the buss.

Rotating the control clockwise increases the amount of post-fader/post-EQ signal.

Note: "Pre-fader/post-EQ" can be changed to pre-EQ

signal with an internal switch. (See page 19 for

details.)

Reverb Control (REV)

This control determines the amount of post-fader/ post-EQ signal assigned to the reverb buss from a

given input channel, and thus the level of reberb for

that channel.

Effects Control (EFF)

This control determines the amount of post-fader/ post-EQ signal assigned to the effect buss from a given input channel, and thus the level of effects for

that channel.

Group Assign Control 1 and 2 (GROUP LEVEL)

This control determines the level of input signal assigned to the group buss 1 and 2 via the group assign pan control.

Group Assign Pan Control 1 and 2 (GROUP PAN)

This pan control assigns the amount of signal determined by the group assign control to the group 1 and 2 busses, providing equal output to the group 1 and 2 busses at the center position. Rotating the pan control clockwise decreases the amount of signal to be fed to the group 2 buss, keeping the original level of the signal for the group 1 buss, while rotating the control counter-clockwise decreases the amount of signal to be fed to the group 1 buss, keeping the original level of the signal for the group 2 buss.

Group Assign Control 3 and 4 (GROUP LEVEL)

This control determines the amount of a given input signal assigned to the group 3 and 4 via the group assign control.

Group Assign Pan control 3 and 4 (GROUP PAN)

This pan control assigns the amount of signal

determined by the group assign control to the group

3 and 4 busses, providing equal output to the group 3 and 4 busses at the detent center position. Rotating the pan control counter-clockwise decreases the amount of the signal to be fed to the group 4 buss,

keeping the original level of the signal for the group 3

buss, while rotating the pan control clockwise decreases the amount of the signal to be fed to the group 3 buss, keeping the original level of the signal

for the group 4 buss.

Channel Switch ON Indicator (CHANNEL ON)

The LED indicator lights orange when the channel on/off switch is "on".

Channel ON/OFF Switch (CHANNEL)

This pushbutton connects or disconnects the input signal to the mixing busses.

Writing Block

The name of the input equipment or microphone setting can be written in with an erasable felt pen or grease pencil.

Input Fader

The fader provides continuously variable adjustment of the channel's output to the mixing busses. The nominal level is at the "0" position, with the fader retaining a l0dB margin.

Cue Switch (CUE)

The cue switch is for monitoring the post-EQ,

pre-fader signal in each input channel through headphone and cue output. The switch is a "push-on

push-off" type. When more than two switches are

"on" the signals are combined.

MIDI THRU

(D-5.5)

(D-5.5E)

The D-5.5 incorporates two, switchable MIDI inputs and four MIDI THRU outputs. With the D-5.5E, six additional MIDI THRU outputs are available.

MIDI LED Indicator (MIDI IN)

This yellow LED indicates the presence of MIDI data at the MIDI input jack on the rear panel (MIDI IN).

MIDI Input Selector Switch (MIDI IN, A, B)

This switch selects either the MIDI input B signal in the "push" position, or A signal in the "release" position.

MIDI THRU ON/OFF Switch (MIDI THRU ON/OFF)

This switch is for "on" or "off" function of each MIDI THRU output. The MIDI THRU is "on" in the "push" position.

CAUTION

While the MIDI LED indicator is flashing, do not operate either the MIDI input selector switch or

the MIDI THRU on/off switch in order to avoid

malfunction of connected MIDI equipment.
