H ROTARY AUX 1-8 MASTERS

These are the masters for the channel post-fade

aux sends 1-8. They are normally used as sends to

effects processors such as reverb. Note that the

channel send rotaries B2 are dual element

controls that simultaneously send the post-fade

signal to these rotary masters and the pre or post-

fade signal to the fader masters F .

H1 MASTER LEVEL. Adjusts the master output

level from fully off to a maximum boost of +6dB.

The normal ‘0’ position is marked.

H2 AFL. Press this switch to listen to the master

signal in the headphones or engineers monitor

without affecting the main outputs. The signal is

monitored post-level so that the signal feeding the

connected equipment can be checked. The same

capabilities apply as described previously for the

grp/aux masters F .

Configuring Groups and Auxes

Decide the application of the console whether front-

of-house or monitor. Decide the number of audio

groups required. The rest can be configured as

fader controlled auxes.

Front-of-House. This is the application with all

mode switches in their default up position. This

provides 8 audio groups with individual routing

switches and LCRplus™ sub grouping, 8 post-fade

auxes on rotary masters for effects sends, and a

further 8 auxes on faders for monitors and special

feeds. The groups can be mixed to the 8 matrix

outputs. If you do not need all 8 groups then you

can press the mode switches to configure more

fader controlled aux sends.

Stage Monitor. Press mode switches to configure

the engineers wedge monitor and the number of

fader controlled mixes you need up to a maximum

of 16. The rest can be used for effects sends. Up

to 4 stereo mixes can be configured, ideal for in-ear

monitoring. Each mix provides an insert for

patching in an equaliser or other signal processing,

full metering, mono or stereo AFL, and talkback

enable. The rotary master outputs would not

normally be used when the fader masters are

configured as monitor sends.
