DESCRIPTION (OXYGEN 3 and 3 ST)

18 OUTPUT MODULES DESCRIPTION (OXYGEN 3 and 3 ST)

18.1 MASTER SECTION

OUTPUT 1: it controls the signal level on the output labelled OUTPUT 1 (balanced).

OUTPUT 2: it controls the signal level on the output labelled OUTPUT 2 (balanced).

BALANCE: it controls the signal balance on the outputs labelled OUTPUT 1-2-3 and FIXED.

OUTPUT 3: it controls the signal level on the output output labelled OUTPUT 3 (unbalanced).

18.2 TALK OVER SECTION

The TALK OVER section allows compression of all signals from CH 2 to 6 and of the TELEPHONE

channels in favour of CHANNEL1 (Master) output signal. It means that you can, f.i., automatically

fade the level of music signals (from Stereo module) depending on the level of MIC1 microphone

signal. This section will affect the MASTER outputs.

DEPTH: it controls the ratio of the compression: the lower is the value, the lower will be the

compressed audio level. The TALK OVER function can be disabled by turning the DEPTH

potentiometer in position 10.

THR(ESHOLD): the trimmer inside the hole adjusts the threshold intervention level of the

compressor (use a small screw-driver in order not to damage the trimmer).

REL(EASE): adjusts the release time of compressor: the higher is the value (turn it clockwise), the

longer is the time needed to go back to the former audio level. (use a small screw-driver not to

damage the trimmer).

18.3 MONITOR SECTION

The Monitor section allows monitoring of selected buses (Ext In, Master, and PFL) without

interfering with normal operation of the main (Master) audio bus. For operator assistance, the left

pair of LED meters always visualize the level of the source selected in this section.

The Monitor section is capable of driving one pairs of headphones plus a Line output with

separated level controls.

POWER button: it switches On / Off the console. The LED inside the button glows accordingly.

EXT IN control: it adjusts the EXT IN input signal level (for example a tuner signal)

OUT control: It affects the (line level) Monitor output on the rear panel.

HEADPHONE control: it affects the output to any headphones connected to the 1/4” jack phones

socket

Monitor Speaker Mute

The Mute function (Monitor speaker cut off) always operates whenever Channel 1 (MicDJ / Line) is

used (i.e. the fader is opened). This is to prevent acoustic feed-back (e.g. using a Studio

microphone).

MUTE function never affects headphone monitoring section.
