25. LEVEL Control

This knob adjusts the gain of the PGM input signals
selected by the position of the SOURCE Select switch
[26]. This knob ranges from off to +13 dB of gain at
maximum. Adjust this with your good eye on the PRO-
GRAM METERS [42], so the level is typically bouncing
between the 0 and +4 LEDs.

26. SOURCE Select Switch

This switch selects one of three possible input sources
for the PGM channel:
FireWire: The signal coming in from the optional
FireWire interface is selected as the source.
LINE/PHONO: The signal connected to the PHONO
connectors on the rear panel is selected. This
could be from a turntable or from a line-level
playback device, depending on the setting of
the LINE/PHONO switch [4].
CD: The signal connected to the CD connectors on
the rear panel is selected.
You could have a signal coming in on all three inputs,
and quickly change from one input source to another
using this heavy duty switch.

27. HIGH EQ

This knob gives you up to 10 dB of boost at 4 kHz and
above, and turns off the signal at 4 kHz and above when
the knob is turned to the KILL position. At the center
position, the HIGH EQ has no effect on the signal.

28. MID EQ

This knob gives you up to 10 dB of boost at 1 kHz, and
turns off the signal at 1 kHz when the knob is turned to
the KILL position. At the center position, the MID EQ
has no effect on the signal.

29. LOW EQ

This knob gives you up to 10 dB of boost at 300 Hz
and below, and turns off the signal at 300 Hz and below
when the knob is turned to the KILL position. At the
center position, the LOW EQ has no effect on the signal.
Note: When all three EQ knobs are turned to the KILL
position, the signal is effectively muted and no signal
passes through to the output.

30. FX Switch

Press this switch in to tap the PGM signal to the FX
SEND outputs. This allows you to send the signal to an
external effects processor, or even provide a direct feed
for the PGM signal to another mixer. This switch will
route the PGM signal to the FX send output connectors,
interrupting the signal to the Main Outputs. If there
is no effects processor connected to the FX send and
returns, then the PGM signal is muted.

31. BAL

This knob works like the balance control on a home
stereo. Turning the knob to the left turns down the right
side, and turning the knob to the right turns down the
left side. When the BAL control is in the center, the left
and right sides are equally as loud (assuming the left
and right inputs are equal loudness).
