Summing Input & FX Returns

The Control 2802 master section provides two ways of returning processing devices, such as reverbs and delays:

● An eight-channel Summing Input

● Two Stereo FX Returns

This provides a total of 12 additional inputs from this section of the console.

Summing Input

The Summing Input is fed from a DB25 connector on the rear

panel, providing easy connection to a D-Sub patchbay system

or any DB25 capable device (including many D/A converters).

The input conforms to the Tascam DA-88 wiring specication

for an eight-channel balanced analogue 25-pin D-Sub. See

page 46 for pin-outs and wiring information.

The eight channel input is congured as four stereo pairs -

Sum 1 L/R, Sum 2 L/R, Sum 3 L/R and Sum 4 L/R - which may

be routed to the stereo main mix or stereo cue bus.

Use the MNO switch to mono the Summing Input mix bus - it

can then be treated as 8 summed mono inputs (1 to 8).
