Fader
- The balance (Pan) control gives continuous and reciprocal adjustment of the
stereo left and right signals by +3dB to off. This allows fine adjustment of the left, right power
levels and imaging.
- The left/right talk switch connects the left/right output to the monitor module so that
the internal talk or oscillator may be routed to the output (see the monitor module section
later in this manual).
- The INS switch connects the left/right insert return to the left/right signal path.
- The left/right mute switches toggle the left/right mute. When lit, the left/right signal
is muted at all points after the insert send. These mute switches can be controlled by the
snapshot automation system.
- When enabled, the mono signal is VCA controlled by the stereo
master fader so that the mono output tracks changes in stereo output fader.
- When depressed, a mono sum of the stereo signal (pre-insert) is sent to the
main mono buss.
- The master fader adjusts the level of the master output and is continuously variable
from off (-inf) to +10dB
