M.203 Description

Note Since Channels 1 (PH1/LN1) & 2 (PH2/LN2) contain the same controls and functionality; we will only describe them once and duplicate the numbering:

1.Mic Volume (gAIN): Adjusts the volume of the MIC input.

2.Mic Tone: Adjusts the tonal balance of the MIC input, with either a Low Boost/High Cut or High Boost/Low Cut.

3.Fader Start (FDR START): Switches the FADER START ON/OFF. This feature is used to trigger playback on a connected CD Player when the fader is used.

4.Input Selector Switch: Selects the Phono (PH) or Line (LN) input.

5.Channel gain (gAIN): Adjusts the pre-fader volume of the PH or LN input.

6.Channel EQ: Adjusts the HI, MID, and LOW frequency levels of the PH or LN input.

7.Channel Fader: Controls the output level of the selected input (PH or LN).

8.Meter Select Switch: Selects if the Meter displays the pre-channel fader (7) or Master (12) volume.

9.Level Meter: Displays the pre-channel fader (7) or Master (12) volume, depending on what is selected on the Meter Select switch (8)

10.Fader Curve Switch: This switch selects between a LONG or SHARP fade for the crossfader.

11.Crosssfader: Fades between the Channel 1 and Channel 2 signals.

12.Master Level: Controls the overall output level.

13.Headphone Level: Adjusts cue volume.

14.Cue Source (Pre, Post, Master): This switch allows you to select two headphone sources: PRE, POST, or MASTER. On this feature, PRE refers to the Crossfader (11). In PRE position, the signal selected by the CUE PAN. On this feature, PRE refers to the Crossfader (11). In PRE position, the signal selected by the CUE PAN FADER (36) will be monitored (pre-line fader, pre- crossfader) as a stereo signal in the headphones. In MASTER position, the signal monitored will be pre-master volume (post- faders), meaning the signal will still be present in the headphone even if the Master volume control is turned down.

15.Cue Pan: Fades the headphone output between channels 1 and 2. This allows you to preview a mix, before bringing up Channel Faders or moving the Crossfader.
