Aviom A-16R and A-16CS User Guide

The default position for the BASS and TREBLE knobs is at 12 o’clock. To add more low frequencies to your monitor mix, turn the BASS knob to the right of the 12 o’clock position. To remove lows, turn the knob counterclockwise past the center. To change the high-frequency content, follow the same procedure; turn the TREBLE knob right to add highs, turn left to diminish them.

The BASS and TREBLE knobs on the A-16CS send control data to the host A-16R rack.

Master Volume

The overall system volume is controlled by the MASTER volume control. Turn it counterclockwise for a full off setting. As a general suggestion, start with the Master volume knob at a low setting, and raise the volume slowly from that point to a comfortable level.

Note: Always use caution when adjusting any audio system component to avoid potential hearing damage.

The A-16R volume control is a true Master volume control, even when the A-16CS Control Surface is connected. Incoming volume messages from the A-16CS Control Surface are scaled by the A-16R front panel volume control.

The A-16R’s front panel volume control is active at all times, regardless of the position of the REMOTE/LOCAL switch. The Master Volume knob provides overall volume adjustments of the main mix level without having to switch to LOCAL mode on the front panel of the unit.

This feature allows an engineer to set the maximum safe volume level at the A-16R and know that the user with the A-16CS Control Surface will never be able to exceed that amount.

Note that switching from remote to local control with the REMOTE/ LOCAL switch may cause an increase in the overall volume, since this removes the A-16CS Control Surface from the signal path.
