2.STEREO INPUT SECTION

(13)L (MONO) LINE INPUT On stereo input channels 9-

(13)16, the 1/4" line inputs are designed for stereo or mono

line-level signals such as those from keyboards, drum machines, CD players, tape

(14)decks, or samplers. However, these inputs can

also be used as standard mono line inputs by connect- ing the signal to the L (MONO) line in. This signal

(4)will be routed equally to the BAL control and the left and right outputs in the same way as the standard line input channels. For the stereo line inputs the mono channel PAN (7) control is replaced by the BAL

(5)(Balance) control. See also BAL CONTROL (15) above.

(14)R LINE INPUT

When using channels 9-10, 11-12, 13-14, or 15-16 as stereo input channels, the left signal should be con- nected to the L input and the right signal to the R input. These signals will be routed

(6) to the AUX, EQ and Channel fader controls equally and will retain their stereo sepa- ration. The AUX, EQ, BAL, and Channel fader controls all function the same as

those on mono input channels 1-8.

When a stereo signal is input to a stereo input channel, these controls will affect the left and right signals equally. The Stereo Line Input jacks are 1/4" TRS balanced phone jacks, Tip = positive (+), Ring = negative (-), Sleeve = ground.

(4) TRIM CONTROL

The stereo Trim control operates in the same manner as the mono Trim control. The stereo inputs are designed for any line level signal. Most line level sources such as MIDI instru- ments and effects units will have their own output level con- trol. However any added adjustment necessary for proper lev- eling can be done with the Trim control.

(5) EQUALIZERS
The stereo channel EQ’s
operate in the same manner
as those in the mono chan-	(15)
nels. The left and right signals
will be affected equally. A
stereo equalizer is generally
preferable anyhow to using	(8)
two mono equalizers when
equalizing a stereo signal as it	(9)
avoids possible discrepancies
between the left and right set-
tings.	(10)
(6) AUX SENDS
These are the same as for the	(11)
mono channels. Note that a

mono sum is taken from the stereo input.

(15)BAL CONTROL For a mono input to the L(MONO) input the function of the control is the same as the PAN (7) controls of the mono channels. However, when a channel is run in stereo, this

control functions as a Balance (12) control, determining the rela-

tive Balance of the left and right channel signals being sent to the left and right Master Mix buses. For exam- ple, with the Balance control turned fully clockwise, only the right portion of the channel’s stereo signal will be routed to the Master Mix. Balance also

determines the relative amount of left and right channel sig- nals being sent to buses G1, G2 respectively when the G1-2 Select switch (11) is engaged.

(8)PEAK LED INDICATOR

(9)PFL SELECT SWITCH

(10)L-R SELECT SWITCH

(11)G1-2 (GROUP) SELECT SWITCH

(12)CHANNEL FADER

This has the same function as for the mono channels. See

MONO INPUT SECTION.
