Channel Section

The channel controls are used to set the EQ,
MONI and EFFECT send levels, channel LEVEL,
and PAD for each channel.
1
HIGH & LOW EQ controls
The 2-band equalizer allows you to boost or cut
the low or high frequency range for each channel.
The frequency response is flat when the controls
are in the center (
) position. Rotating clockwise
boosts frequencies, rotating counterclockwise
cuts them.
The center frequencies are as follows:
HIGH: 10 kHz ±15 dB shelving type
LOW: 100 Hz ±15 dB shelving type
B
MONI control
The MONI control determines the level of the
input signal that is fed to the MONI bus and sub-
sequently the MONITOR OUTPUT jack.
The MONI control is not affected by the chan-
nel’s LEVEL control, since the MONI signal is
sourced before that control.
C
EFFECT control
The EFFECT control determines the level of the
input signal that is fed to the EFFECT bus and
subsequently the onboard effects processor and
EFFECT OUT jack.
EFFECT bus signals are fed simultaneously to the
onboard effects processor and the EFFECT OUT
jack for use with external effects processors.
The EFFECT control is affected by the channel’s
LEVEL control, since the EFFECT signal is
sourced after that control. To send a channel sig-
nal to the EFFECT bus, both the EFFECT and
LEVEL controls must be turned up.
D
LEVEL control
The LEVEL control determines the level of the
input signal that is fed to the MAIN bus, MAIN
output section, and internal power amplifier.
E
PAD switch (1–4 only)
The PAD switch attenuates the input signal by
30 dB. When connecting a line-level source to
inputs 1 through 4, or if a microphone signal is
distorted, use the PAD switch to attenuate the
input signal.
