System 5 Digital Audio Mixing System User Guide42
Mix Section and Aux Send Format
Each Mix section also has a return that supports Bus/Tape monitoring. The returns can be patched from the record machine’s out-
puts using PatchNet (see “Mix Bus Send/Return” on page 25). It is not possible to select a Mix section and its return at the same
time because they intercancel, even in Summing mode.
Aux Sends appear in the Panel as mono or stereo pairs.
Control Room Monitor Controls
Press the CR Output key above the CR Source LCD to display the Control Room Output Panel.
Dim and Cut
The Dim level can be set in the Control Room Output Panel by pressing the Dim key on the panel viewer and using the Spin Knob
to adjust the level. This is the reduction in level (dB) that occurs when the Dim switch is active. The Dim level can also be set by
turning the Output Level Knob when Dim is active.
The Control Room Monitors may be switched off/on by pressing the output level knob’s center switch or the Cut switch.
Monitors A–D may be switched off/on by pressing the output level knob’s center switch. They are off when their output level
knob’s center LED is not lit.
