3Bus Assign Switches
These switches determine the bus(es) to which the sig-
nal received from the 2TR IN jacks and the USB con-
nector is sent.
•ST switch: Sends the signal to the ST L/R bus.
•MONO switch: Sends the mixed L and R signal to
the MONO bus.
42TR IN/USB Control
Adjusts the level of the signal received from the 2TR IN
jacks and the USB connector.
5PFL Switch/Indicator

When the PFL switch is on, the indicator will light and the

signal before the 2TR IN/USB control is output to the MON-

ITOR OUT and PHONES jacks for monitoring.

NOTE
·When you turn on the PFL switch, the PFL indicator of the
MONITOR section (page 18) will light.
REC OUT/USB Section
1REC OUT Jacks
These RCA pin jacks can be connected to an external
recorder such as an MD recorder in order to record the
signal of the ST L/R bus or MONO bus.
NOTE
·The STEREO OUT master fader and MONO fader has no
affect on the signal via these jacks.
2Bus Assign Switches
These switches determine the signal sent to the REC
OUT jacks and USB connector. If you’re sending the
signal of the MONO bus, the same signal will be output
to the L and R of the REC OUT jacks and the USB con-
nector.
•ST switch: The signal of the ST L/R bus will be
output from the REC OUT jacks and the USB
connector.
•MONO switch: The signal of the MONO bus will be
output from the REC OUT jacks and the USB
connector.
NOTE
· If both the ST switch and the MONO switch are on, the
mixed signals of the ST L/R bus and MONO bus will be
output.
MATRIX OUT Section
1MATRIX OUT Jack
This is an impedance balanced (page 19) TRS phone-
jack type output. This jack outputs the signal adjusted
by the controls in the MATRIX OUT section.
2GROUP Controls (1–8)
These adjust the level of the signals sent from GROUP
OUT 1–8 to the MATRIX OUT jacks.
3ST Controls (L, R)
These adjust the level of the signals sent from ST OUT L/
R to the MATRIX OUT jacks.
