Sound Performance Lab MMC2 manual Monitor Level, Master Fader, Output Trims

Monitor Level

The Monitor Level is controlled with a custom-made eight-tiered potentiometer. The MMC 2 does not employ DACs, step ladders or VCAs for this function, and the specifica- tions of this potentiometer are substantially better than either of these other options ever could be – the maximum tolerance is ‹ 0,5 dB over the entire control range. The control range reaches from -∞ dB to +4 dB.

Master Fader

This fader features the same potentiometer of the Monitor Level for dynamic mastering purposes and fine tuning the overall level from +10 dB to -80 dB.

Each output channel must be activated by the Fader On switch in the respective Output Trim section to be controlled by the master fader.

With this control’s extremely fine level settings, the engineer can attain every ounce of recording headroom. The result, thanks to these controls of infinite resolution, is an unparalleled excellence in dynamic mastering.
