Insert: Post HP filters, EQ. & Limiter.

Send and return to auxiliary equipment. (eg: Outboard compressor / limiter,

equalizers and multi-track recorders).

Can be changed to Direct out, Prefader only. (See application note AN 2A & 2B v.2)

Direct Out: Post channel fader. (eg: feed to playback systems. Direct feed to multi-track

recorders) See balanced out option for pre or post fader outputs.

2 Holes above Ch. 1 & 2 on rear panel:

Machined for XLR connectors. (eg: stereo input channels)

(General: All internal jumpers are mechanical, do not require soldering.)

Output Section: 4 main + 2 aux outs.

SL (slate): Down = Slate + 27 HZ LF tone.

For slating takes where a LF tone is desired. The tone is set at -16 dB on the

PPM meters. When the takes are played back at high speed, the LF tone

becomes audible to indicate the front end of recorded takes. Internal trimmer

adjusts this LF tone level.

Up = no LF tone. (Slate to outputs assigned by AB, CD, Aux. switches).

Osc. (oscillator): Level set by trimmer above this switch. Frequency is selected by a toggle

switch above the level trimmer.

Ext. Slate: Up = Internal, Down = External. (see rear panel.)

Slate amp. level controlled by trimmer below this switch.

Roll 1, 2: Center off switches.

Can independently control recorders, depending on the pins selected on the roll

connectors on the rear panel. (See application note AN 1 v.2)

Up = Record

Down = Stop, pause.

PL 2 & 3: Assigns private line to monitor 2 or 3 only or both (center position). Level

(private line) controlled by trimmer below the switch.

AB, CD, Aux: Assigns slate and oscillator to these outputs. There is an option to further split the oscillator and

slate feeds to either Aux 1 only or Aux 1 and Aux 2.

Mic: Internal slate mic.

Monitor 1 Main phones out, two jacks are provided on front panel.

Section: Solo, Off, On

Any combination of busses can now be monitored.

Selected busses can be monitored in mono, stereo or M/S.

To facilitate checking of busses, it is recommended to assign the main monitor requirements to

the ‘on’ position and spot check by soloing the other inputs. This is quicker than assigning the

mains to solo as there is no need to switch off the other busses.

Note: ‘On’ function - when more than two busses are selected, the signal level will increase to the

headphones. Turn down phones level if necessary - especially when using the line up tone

(osc.).
