SOLO Switch w/LED

Solo monitoring of the L, R or Mono Output. Choice of PFL or AFL source.

Fader

100mm linear analog fader for control of the output level to XLR, matrix and Solo AFL.

Adjusts the gain of the Stereo Program In signal.

Stereo Program In EQ

Two-band fixed frequency (10kHz and 80Hz) EQ that affects the Stereo Program

AUX 1&2, 3&4, 5&6, 7&8 Levels

These rotary faders controls the amount of Stereo Program sig- nal sent the respective Aux buses. Normally Left signal is sent to the odd Aux buses, while Right signal is sent to the even Aux buses. Refer to Special facilities for more information.

Stereo Program Balance

Provides adjustment of the image position.

Stereo Program Assignments

Stereo Program Mute w/LED

Mutes the output of the Stereo Program.

Stereo Program Level

Controls final output signal level of the Stereo Program.

Stereo Program SIG/PEAK LED

The red LED lights 3dB before clipping point and responds to pre-fader levels. The varying intensity of the green LED dis- plays the level of the audio. Both LEDs respond to the sum of L&R audio.
