The adjacent amber LED will illuminate to indicate that the channel’s signal has been assigned to the PFL mix, and an amber LED in the Mono Master section will blink to indicate that the signal on the Mono LED display and at the Headphone Out is PFL. When the PFL switch is not engaged, the Signal/PFL LED will blink as an indication of signal presence (-20 dBu) on the channel.

16.CHANNEL FADER This control determines the level of the channel’s signal that is sent to L/R, Sub, and/or Mono. The range of the fader is (- ∞) to +10 dB, with unity gain at the 0 dB mark.

Input connections and channel strip controls on Super Channels are the same as Standard Channels with the exception of Insert jacks. In place of Insert connections, Super Channels are equipped with:

17.PAD This switch attenuates (reduces) the input signal by 20 dB. This allows accommodation of higher input levels without clipping and is especially useful when close-miking high sound pressure level (SPL) sources.

18.POLARITY This switch reverses the polarity of both the XLR and LINE input connectors to compensate for an out-of-phase signal that would otherwise cause frequency (phase) cancellations in the mix.

Stereo Channels offer the same channel strip controls as Standard Channels with the exception of the Mid Frequency control. Center bandpass frequency is set at 850 Hz. In place of the Mid Frequency control, Stereo Channels offer independent gain controls for the Line and Mic (XLR) inputs. Stereo Channels also include:

19.STEREO 1/4" LINE INPUTS These TS jacks are unbalanced line level inputs for stereo (L/R) signals. They are connected in parallel with the Stereo RCA Line Inputs. For Mono line sources, use a Y cable or one of the channels with a MONO line input.

20.STEREO RCA LINE INPUTS These RCA (phono) inputs are unbalanced line level inputs for stereo (L/R) signals. They are connected in parallel with the Stereo 1/4" Line Inputs.
