by the Channel faders, and the Right speaker output is the signal controlled by the Channel AUX controls (7). Therefore the Main speakers, for example, can be controlled by the individual Channel faders (11) and the Left Master fader (27A), and the Monitor speakers by the Channel AUX controls (7) and the Right Master fader (27B). In this mode, any Master EQ (22) or Effects (8,28,32) selected on the EFECTS bus will be output on both the Left and Right Speaker outputs. The Left and Right Master inserts (14,15) operate individually on either channel as in normal stereo operation.

(21)ECHO EFFECT SELECT BUTTONS

(32)EFFECT SEND

(33)EFFECT (ECHO) REPEAT

(34)EFFECT PAN

(35)EFFECT PFL

(28)EFFECT FADER

The built-in DSP (Digital Sound Processor) offers 16 different preset level and echo intervals selectable by the Echo Effect Select UP/DOWN buttons (21). Press either button to scroll in either direction through the 16 presets. The numeric Effects Display (20) will indicate which of the 16 effect pre- sets has been selected. The DSP processes the signal on the EFFECTS bus, which is the sum of the 6 individual channel inputs controlled by the EFF control (8). The EFFECT SEND control (32) adjusts the level of the signal on the EFFECTS bus fed to the DSP. The EFFECT (ECHO) REPEAT control

(33)adjusts the number of repeats of the echo effect selected with the UP/DOWN buttons (21) and the EFFECTS fader

(28)controls the signal level sent to the Master Mix busses. The output of the DSP is sent proportionately to the Left and Right Master Mix busses as adjusted by the EFFECT PAN control (34). The EFFECT PFL button (35) can be depressed to monitor the pre-EFFECTS fader (28) DSP out- put through the Monitor Headphones jack (37).

(36)PHONES LEVEL CONTROL

(18)MONO MONITOR OUTPUT

The PRM-400 allows you to monitor the Stereo Master Mix or any signals selected by the channel PFL (10) or EFFECTS PFL (35). The signal level is adjusted with the Phones Level control (36) and routed to the Headphones (37) output. The Phones Output (37) will feed headphones and is a 1/4” TRS jack, wired: tip = left signal, ring = right signal, sleeve = ground. (Note: Use only headphones with an impedance >50 Ω or you may experience some distortion.)

If desired, this output can also be connected instead to an amplifier and speakers for control room or stage monitoring. The MONO Monitor Out Jack (18) is another useful output which can be used to feed a signal to a monitor amp or other mixer. The signal on this output is taken from the AUX bus
