SoundCraft Spirit Monitor Output Sections, Channel Fader, Monitor Outputs, Monitor Inserts, Sub

	can be made or problems traced.
	When the PFL switch is released the LED on the channel
	serves as a PEAK indicator, to warn when an excessively high
	signal level is present in the channel. The signal is sampled at
	two points in the channel, PRE INSERT (PRE Hi-PASS FIL-
	TER), and POST EQ. The Peak LED will illuminate
	approximately 4dB before clipping and therefore give warn-
	ing of a possible overload even if the peaks are removed by
	external equipment plugged into the Insert.
12.	CHANNEL FADER
	This linear fader determines the proportion of the channel in
	the mixes and provides a clear visual indication of channel
	level. Normal operating position is at the ‘0’ mark, providing
	10dB of gain above that point if required.
	OUTPUT SECTIONS
	There are eight Monitor Outputs, arranged in pairs. Each
	Output offers identical facilities.
1.	MONITOR OUTPUTS
	Each Monitor Output is driven by a ground-compensated am-
	plifier and fed to standard male XLR-3 connectors.
2.	MONITOR INSERTS
	These allow external processing equipment to be ‘inserted’ into
	the monitor signal path. The 1⁄4" 3 pole ‘A’ gauge jacks are by-
	passed except when a plug is inserted.
3.	SUB
	The SUB control and associated switch and LED feed the

monitor output to the engineer’s submix, which is the normal source for the headphones and wedge outputs. The signal is derived before the Talkback and Dim circuitry, and the sub- mix is therefore unaffected by either of those functions in the Output section. The submix feed is enabled when the ON
