Installation & Quickstart
Source Switch Field.
Each input channel (source) has a switch to select it.
Only one source can be activated at one time. When
working with STEREO sources you will select sources as
pairs. When a yellow source LED is lit, it indicates a
selected source.
Destination Switch Field.
Each output channel (destination) has a switch to select
it. When working with STEREO destinations, you will
select them as pairs. When a red destination LED is lit, it
indicates a selected destination.
Save.
This switch, when pushed is used to activate SAVE mode
to store current settings defined by the user. You have 90
different program memories.
Route.
This switch activates ROUTE mode and is used to
determine the routing of a source to desired destinations.

Audio Block Diagram.
The diagram below shows how audio signals are dealt
with inside the SixtyFour.
The audio inputs are buffered and sent both into a level
control element and a meter input. This meter point
meters exactly what is coming into the SixtyFour from
the outside world. The signal then passes into a level
control element and then into the 1024 point switch. This
switch does all the routing inside the SixtyFour.
Coming out of the 1024 point switch, audio is sent to a
level control element and then to the output buffer and
meter. The output meter shows what is coming out the
SixtyFour outputs. If you have a level turned down or an
output unrouted, the meter will show this.
Front Panel Controls.
There are 3 audio functions of the SixtyFour. They are
Route, Set Levels, and Meter signals. The “Route”,
“Level”, and “Meter” switches control these 3 functions.
There are 32 “Source” switches each with a Yellow LED,
and 32 “Destination” switches each with a Red LED.
These switches are used to select your audio sources
and destinations while performing these 3 functions.
