CHANNEL STRIPS
The six vertical channel strips contain all the individual controls for each channel. Each channel strip works independently of each other, and adjusts only the signal plugged into the jacks below it.
Note: If the optional wireless modules are installed, CH
1.LEVEL – These controls adjust the amount of gain for each channel available to the MAIN output. Adjust these controls to achieve a good mix between connected microphones/instruments. These controls do not adjust the amount of gain available for the MONITOR output.
2.MON – These controls adjust the amount of gain for each channel available to the MONITOR output. Since the monitor output will typically be used for onstage reference, set the individual levels to achieve a perfect monitoring mix. These controls do not adjust the amount of gain available for the MAIN output.
3.DSP/REV AUX – These controls adjust the amount of DSP effects applied individually to channels
A secondary function of this control is to adjust the presence of that channel’s signal in the ¼” AUX output mix. As the control is turned clockwise, the signal is increased. As the control is turned
4.HIGH – These controls adjust the amount of high frequency in the audio signal for each channel. Increase the HIGH control to add sparkle to vocals and instruments, but keep in mind that excessive high frequency equalization can lead to feedback. Decrease the HIGH control to reduce vocal sibilance, reduce tape hiss, or “bacon crackle” from vinyl recordings.
5.MED – These controls adjust the amount of midrange frequency in the audio signal for each channel. Midrange is the most commonly adjusted range in audio. Pianos, guitars and the human voice can be dramatically adjusted sonically by adjusting the midrange. For vocals a slight boost in the midrange provides a good sound when playing through well- balanced set of speakers.
6.LOW – These controls adjust the amount of low frequency in the audio signal for each channel. Low frequency adjustments are made to add serious thump to kick drums, fatten up bass lines, or add a “full” sound to instruments and vocalists. You can also decrease low frequency to save your speakers from blowing during playback of audio with a heavy bass presence.
7.SOURCE SELECT – These buttons toggle the source input for channels
8.MIC PAD 30dB – These switches can provide a 30dB signal cut for high level input sources. The MIC PAD is designed to prevent overloading a channel with a
