NAMES AND FUNCTIONS OF PARTS

10 HEADPHONES output switch (MONO SPLIT/STEREO) MONO SPLIT:

The source sound selected with the headphone CUE button is output to the L channel, while the master sound is output to the R channel (only when [MASTER] is selected with the headphone CUE button).

STEREO:

The audio source selected with the headphone CUE button is output in stereo.

11 HEADPHONES MIXING dial

When rotated clockwise (toward [MASTER]), the master output audio is produced at the headphones (only when [MASTER] has been selected with the headphone CUE button); when rotated counterclockwise (toward [CUE]), the headphones output becomes the mixture of the effect monitor and the channel selected with the headphone CUE button.

12 HEADPHONES LEVEL adjust dial

Adjusts the output level of the headphones jack. (Adjustable range: –∞to 0 dB)

•When rotated counterclockwise, the luminance level is reduced, eventually producing a black screen.

•When rotated clockwise, the luminance level is raised, eventually producing a white screen.

•At the center position, the luminance level is neutral (same level as input).

23 AUDIO TRIM dial

Use to adjust the level of the audio input signal for each channel. (Adjustable range: –∞to +9 dB, mid-position is about 0 dB)

24 Channel equalizer high-range adjust dial (HI)

Use to adjust the treble (high-range) frequency sound for each channel. Video parameters can also be assigned. See P. 34 regarding video parameters. (Adjustable range: –26 dB to +6 dB)

25 Channel equalizer mid-range adjust dial (MID)

Use to adjust the mid-range frequency sound for each channel. Video parameters can also be assigned. See P. 34 regarding video parameters. (Adjustable range: –26 dB to +6 dB)

26 Channel equalizer low-range adjust dial (LOW)

Use to adjust the bass (low-range) frequency sound for each channel. Video parameters can also be assigned. See P. 34 regarding video parameters. (Adjustable range: –26 dB to +6 dB)

27 Channel level indicator

Displays the current level for each channel, with two-second peak hold.

28 Headphone CUE buttons/indicators

These buttons are used to select from 1 to 4, MASTER, or EFFECT CUE, to allow you to monitor the desired source through headphones. If multiple buttons are pressed simultaneously, the selected audio sources are mixed. Press the button once more to cancel the selected source. Unselected buttons glow darkly, while selected source buttons light brightly.

29 Channel fader lever

Use to adjust sound volumes and video level for each channel. (Volume adjust range: –∞to 0 dB) (Video adjust range: 0 % to 100 %)

Output is in accordance with the channel fader curve selected with the CH FADER CURVE switch.

When FADER AV SYNC function is OFF, only sound volume can be adjusted.

30 CROSS FADER ASSIGN switch

This switch assigns each channel’s output to either right or left side of the cross fader (if multiple channels are assigned to the same side, the result will be the combined sum of the channels).

A:

The selected channel is assigned to the cross fader’s [A] (left) side.

THRU:

The channel fader’s output is sent as is to the master output, without being passed through the cross fader.

B:

The selected channel is assigned to the cross fader’s [B] (right) side.

31 CROSS FADER CURVE switch

This switch allows the user to select from three types of cross fader curve response.

Sound volume changes as follows:

•At the left setting, the curve produces a rapid signal rise. (As soon as the cross fader lever leaves the [A] side, the [B] channel sound is produced.)

•At the right setting, the curve operates to produce an even, neutral rise throughout the cross fader’s movement.

•At the middle setting, an intermediate curve is produced, midway between the two curves noted above.

The video level is as noted above only when the video cross fader’s video mix effect is set to [FADE].

32Video master output level dial (VIDEO MASTER LEVEL) Adjusts the video master output luminance level.

33Master output MONO/STEREO selector switch

When set to the [MONO] position, audio master output is produced in L+R monaural.

34Audio master output level dial (AUDIO MASTER LEVEL) Use to adjust the master output level. (Adjustable range: –∞to

0dB)

The master output is the sum combination of the sound from channels set to [THRU] with the CROSS FADER ASSIGN switch;
