Chapter 13: Solo and Monitor Busses 131
Using Solo
Solo operation depends on the type of channel being soloed, and
on any selected Solo switch options. In all modes, a channel’s
Solo switch lights to indicate that the channel is soloed.
Input Channels
Soloing an Input Channel or FX Return sends signal to the Solo
bus (when in PFL or AFL modes) or to the Main bus (when in SIP
mode).
In SIP mode only, when a channel is soloed, all other channels
that are not soloed or solo safe are implicitly muted. Implicit
mutes are indicated by a flashing mute switch.
Output Busses
Soloing an output channel sends signal to the AFL/PFL Solo bus.
This applies to Groups, Auxes, and Matrixes. Outputs are always
AFL.
Momentary And Latching Switch
Operation
Channel solo switches can operate with either momentary or
latching behavior.
To engage momentary solo on a channel:
 Hold the Solo switch for more than one second. Release the
solo switch to un-solo the channel.
To latch solo on a channel:
 Press and release the Solo switch. Press the switch a second
time to unsolo the channel.
Soloing Single Channels

 Press the channel’s Solo switch so it is lit. The solo switch
latches on a momentary press.

Soloing VCAs
When you solo a VCA, its member channels are soloed. If the
VCA members include a combination of input and output chan-
nels, their solo status follows any Solo switch options. See “Con-
figuring Solo and Monitor Options” on page 130.

 Press the Solo switch on the VCA channels whose members
you want to solo so that the Solo switch is lit.

nels.
