1INPUT index

Displays the INPUT channel index that is entered on the BLOCK screen.

2OUTPUT index

Displays the OUTPUT channel index that is entered on the BLOCK screen.

3ASSIGN button

You can select the signal input and output path. Right-clicking the button displays the menu. You can select the desired sending level from –20 dB, –15 dB, –12 dB, –9 dB, –6 dB,

–3 dB or 0 dB. The ASSIGN button lights in green when pressed ON at 0 dB. This button lights in blue purple when pressed ON at any level between –20 dB and –3 dB.

zMoving the pointer to the button displays the present output level.

4AUTOMATIC MIXER button

Turns on and off the AUTOMATIC MIXER.

The AUTOMATIC MIXER button lights in green when the AUTOMATIC MIXER button is pressed ON.

When it is pressed ON, the compressor of the INPUT screen is set at the same time.

The AUTOMATIC MIXER contains two functions, the compressor function and the gate function.

If the total output sound volume exceeds a certain level such as when many people talk loudly or at the same time, the compressor function limits the output sound volume so that it does not exceed the upper-specified level. (See part 1 in the figure.)

If the microphone input sound falls below a lower-specified level, the gate function cuts off the microphone sound so that the background noise is reduced, howling is prevented, and clear sound quality is maintained. When larger than a certain volume is input again, the microphone input is turned on without delay. (See part 2 in the figure.)

Conventional automatic mixers have an inherent lack of sound at the beginning of a speech due to the time difference after the audio input level is detected until the gate starts working. The SRP-X700P solves this problem by removing the time difference by using digital signal processing.
