AUX

22 AUX MASTERS

These controls set the output levels of the two Aux Outputs.

23 AFL

These After Fade Listen switches route their respective aux output signal to the monitor/headphones out- puts.

24 PRE/POST SWITCHES

These two switches globally switch the AUX 1 and AUX 2 feeds, respectively, on all the input modules to be either pre-fade or post-fade.

25 AUX OUTPUTS 1 & 2

These outputs are on 3-pole 6.35mm (1/4") jacks and are balanced.

FX

For detailed instructions on using the FX Processor see the section which starts on the next page.

26 FX MASTER

This control regulates the signal level being fed from the FX bus to the FX processor and to the FX BUS OUTPUT socket.

27 PFL

When the latching PFL switch is pressed, the post-FX, pre-mute pre-fade (EFFECTS mute & fader - see items 8 & 11 on page 25) signal is fed in mono to the headphones, control room output and meters, where it replaces the MIX. The AFL/PFL ACTIVE LED on the Master section illuminates to warn that a PFL is active.

28 FX BUS OUTPUT

This output carries the signal from the FX bus. It could be used as a third Aux Output if desired, if the FX Processor is not needed at the time. The FX sends on the input channels to the FX bus are always post-fade.

29 FOOTSWITCH

Using a single pole, momentary footswitch inserted into the FOOTSWITCH input the effects processor can be muted/un-muted.

STEREO RETURN

30 STEREO RETURN INPUTS

This pair of inputs accept 3-pole ‘A’ gauge (TRS) jacks. Use these inputs for sources such as keyboards, drum machines, synths or CDs. The inputs are BALANCED. Mono sources may be used by plugging into the left jack only.

31 STEREO RETURN LEVEL

This control sets the level of signal routed to the main mix busses. There is an associated PK LED to warn of signals which are too high.
