11. AUX 2 control (pre) (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
This control sends the channel signal to the AUX 2 output. This signal is always pre-fader, i.e. it is
independent by the position of the FADER LEVEL control.
12. AUX 3 send control (pre/post) (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
This control sends the signal to the AUX 3 output. This signal is normally pre-fader, but it could be set post-
fader pressing the POST switch: in this case the signal level depends on the position of the channel FADER.
13. POST switch (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
Push this switch to set the AUX 3 control post-fader or release it to set the AUX 3 pre-fader. The pre-fader
setting is preferable if you want to use the AUX 3 send as stage monitor, so to have your stage mix
independent from MAIN MIX.
14. AUX4/FX send control (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
This control sends the signal to the AUX 4 output and to the internal Digital Effect Processor. This signal is
post-fader or, in other words, it depends on the position of the channel's FADER.
15. PAN control (ch. 1 ÷ 8)
It adjusts the amount of channel signal sent to the left versus the right outputs. Use it to position the sound
origin in a panoramic stereo scene.
16. MUTE switch/LED (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
When you engage a channel’s mute switch, its signal disappears from these outputs: MAIN MIX, GROUPS 1-2,
AUX 1÷3, AUX 4/FX.
NOTE: the input channel signal is not completely muted by this switch, so you can listen to it thru headphones
and C.ROOM outputs acting on the PFL button.
17. MIX switch (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
Engaging this switch you assign the channel signal to the MAIN MIX bus regulated by the MAIN MIX faders.
Typically, the MIX switch will be engaged on all channels except those assigned separately to GROUPS 1-2.
18. 1-2 switch (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
Engaging this switch you assign the channel signal to the GROUPS 1-2 bus regulated by the GROUPS 1-2
faders. You can use the GROUPS 1-2 jacks as separate outputs or, engaging the switch GRP TO MIX, to create
a submix for a set of channels (all the drums channels, for instance): in this case you can control the assigned
GROUPS 1-2 signals together and independently from the rest of the mix.
19. PEAK/PFL detector (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
This LED has two functions:
• If the PEAK LED lights permanently this means that you have activated the PFL switch of this channel.
• If the PEAK LED flashes this means that the input signal is near to the CLIPPING point.
IMPORTANT: if the LED PEAK flashes reduce the level of the input signal using the GAIN control.
20. PFL switch (ch. 1 ÷ 8 / 9 ÷ 16)
PFL is the abbreviation of Pre-Fader Listening, so this switch allows you to hear signals through your
headphones or control room outputs and to display the level on LED meters. Use the PFL in live sets to pre-
