microprocessor controlled muting
The Crest X-Series of Consoles* is equipped with a micro-controlled
Mute Controller which permits the user to set-up a series of Mute Scenes,
each controlling any combination of channels and outputs.These Scenes
can then be recalled, either singly or in combination,to allow the opera-
tor to easily control the mutes during a performance.
The Mute Controller features 128 Sequenced Scenes (Patches) along with
8 Manual Mute Scenes.The 128 Patches can be stepped through using a
single button,or remotely activated by the use of MIDI patch-change com-
mands.The Patches can be combined with the Manual Scenes to allow dif-
ferent combinations of Channel mutes.
The following is a overview of the controls and indicators of the Mute
Controller and the Channels (see diagrams on previous page).The follow-
ing information pertains to X-Eight consoles with Rev 1.12 firmware,and
X-Monitor consoles with Rev 1.00 firmware.
