Fader Reverse Switch
This switch swaps roles between the Effect Return Level pot and the Group Fader. When pressed, this switch causes the Effect Return Level to be controlled by the group fader, and the group level to be controlled by the Effect Return Level pot. If you want fader control when setting effect returns, this switch is particularly helpful. A red LED indicator is provided to the left of the switch and illuminates when the switch is pressed (reverse mode).

Ground
Console chassis and audio ground are connected together. The console power supply includes an external link that connects console ground to AC power ground. This link is provided for user selection when optimising system ground requirements.
Group Assignment
(See Bus Assignment)
Group Insert Send/Balanced Insert Return Jacks (Group Module)
These jacks allow you to access a point in the group module’s electrical circuit for inserting an external signal processor. The output level of this connector is designed to drive the inputs of most external signal processing equipment and to accept the resulting output signal. When properly wired TRS plugs are inserted in these jacks, the patched devices are inserted into the signal path immediately
Group Meters
Located within the meter bridge, these
Headphone Jacks
Located at the top of the master section and under the right side of the arm rest, these jacks provide a stereo headphone level output of the Left, Center (Mono), and Right outputs. When
Headphone Level Control
This control (marked PHONES and located in the upper right
Master section) adjusts the level of the signal fed to the two headphone jacks; one of these jacks is located next to the PHONES control, and another is just below the armrest on the far right side.
HF Peak/Shelve Switch
This switch is used for switching the high frequency EQ con- trol between the normal shelving setting to a peak setting. A shelving setting would be used to boost or cut all frequencies above the
High Pass Filter (Adjustable)
See ADJUSTABLE HIGH PASS FILTER
Insert Send/Balanced Insert Return Jacks (Input Module)
These jacks allow you to access a point in the channel’s elec- trical circuit for inserting an external signal processor. The out- put level of the Insert Send jack is designed to drive the inputs of most external signal processing equipment and to accept the resulting output signal. When a properly wired TRS plug is inserted in these jacks and the Insert switch is down, the input signal path is broken after the gain stage and the high pass fil- ter. The Balanced Insert Return jack feeds the return signal to a point just before the EQ section. See the Connections and Conventions section in the front of the manual for specific information on plug polarity and signal assignments. (With the Insert switch down, the insert return jack may be used as a line level input to the channel that bypasses the mic preamp, mic/line switch, pad, gain control, and hi pass filter.)
Insert Switch w/LED
This switch, located on the GTX Input (and GTX Stereo Input) modules, introduces into the signal path any processing that is patched into the Insert Send and Balanced Insert Return jacks on the rear panel. An associated green LED is illuminated when the Insert switch is down.
Internal Oscillator
The GTx master section has a 1 kHz internal oscillator. This oscillator can be used as signal source to run tests, diagnostics or calibrations. The oscillator can be assigned to all Groups, Auxes and Matrices via the Talkback assignment switches.
Lamp Dim Control
This control adjusts the brightness of whatever lighting devices are plugged into the XLR sockets on the meter bridge. (Standard 12V DC power is provided on pins 2 & 3).
L-C-R Switch
Provides true
Left Meter
Located on the GTx meter bridge, this
LF Peak/Shelve Switch
This switch is used for switching the low frequency EQ control between the normal shelving setting and a peak setting. A shelving setting would be used to boost or cut all frequencies
