AUX AFLs

Just like the PFL switches on the channels, you can monitor each AUX out- put by pressing the AFL switch. This routes the AUX output signal to the MONITOR or PHONES, replacing any existing signal (normally the Monitor receives either MIX, SUB or 2TK, see above). The METERS also switch from the selected source to display the PFL/AFL signal and the PFL/AFL LED lights to warn that a PFL or AFL switch is pressed. When you release the switch the Monitor swaps back to the previous source.

AUX 2 POST/PRE

The input channels provide both Pre- and Post-Fade AUX 2 sends which may be selected desk-wide on the Master Section. Press the POST/PRE switch to make all of the AUX 2 Sends on the channel strips PRE-FADE. This means that they will all be unaffected by the position of the channel faders, making them ideal for FOLDBACK or MONITORING.

When the switch is released the AUX 2 Sends are all POST-FADE, and will fade up and down with the channel faders. This is more suitable for effects sends which need to fade out with the associated source.

9MONO SUM

The Mix Left and Right signals are summed to a MONO output on a 3 pole ‘A’ gauge jack. Output level is set by the dedicated rotary control. Monitoring of the Mono output, if required, but be done at the external equipment it feeds, or the signal brought back to a spare console input.

10 MASTER FADERS

The MASTER FADERS set the final level of the MIX and SUB outputs, and separate faders are provided for each output. These should normally be set close to the `0’ mark if the input GAIN settings have been correctly set, to give maximum travel on the faders for smoothest control.

11 SUB TO MIX

The SUB outputs may be used as independent outputs from the console, or used as true subgroups, routed to the main Mix outputs. When the switch is released the SUB signal feeds the SUB outputs only. With the switch pressed the post-fade Sub Left and Right signals are routed to Mix Left and Right respectively. The Sub outputs remain unaffected.
