Controls and Functions
INPUT CHANNEL SECTION - continued
around the center point that are affected by the MID 
CUT & BOOST control) and can be set in a range from 
100Hz to 8Khz. 
LF (LOW FREQUENCY) 80Hz +/- 15dB shelving 
type
The channel’s LOW frequency response is flat when 
the knob is in the “12:00” position. Rotating the 
knob towards the right will boost the channel's low 
frequency response at 80 Hertz by 15dB, and rotating 
it towards the left will cut the frequency by 15dB. 
8 - Channel Equalizer - Stereo Channels
The L1200 and L2000 Stereo input channels feature 
a 4-band equalizer allowing you to adjust the high, 
mid, and low frequencies independently on each 
channel. The stereo channel equalizer is laid out like 
a mono input on the control panel input strip, but 
internally, the equalizer is affecting a stereo signal 
path. The channel’s frequency response is flat when 
the knobs are in the “12:00” position. Rotating the 
knob towards the right will boost the corresponding 
frequency band by 15dB, and rotating it towards the 
left will cut the frequency by 15dB. The frequency 
centers, range of boost or cut, and equalizer type for 
each band are as follows:
High: 12kHz +/- 15dB shelving type
High Mid: 3kHz +/- 15dB peaking type
Lo Mid: 500 kHz +/- 15dB peaking type
Low: 80Hz +/- 15dB shelving type
9 - PAN Control
The L1200 and L2000’s PAN control is used to place 
or position the mono signal into the stereo main Left 
and Right MIX bus. You can create a stereo image by 
panning some input signals to the left and others 
to the right. The L1200 and L2000’s PAN control is a 
Power-Pan circuit, which includes a 3dB dip in the 
center position. This is desirable since there’s a 3dB 
increase in gain when the mono input signal is heard 
in both the Left and Right MIX bus. 
10 - MUTE switch 
The Mono Input channels feature a large, backlit 
MUTE switch allowing you to easily turn that channel 
on or off. When MUTE switch is illuminated, the 
channel is off. Conversely, when the backlight is off, 
the channel is on. 
11 - SOLO/PFL (Pre Fader Listen) switch 
The Mono Input channel’s PFL, or Pre Fader Listen 
switch allows you to listen, or “solo” a channel or 
group of channels in the headphones. When the 
SOLO/PFL switch is pressed down, either mono PFL 
or stereo SOLO is sent to the headphones. To listen 
to the PFL, press the Meter Select switch, located 
below the VU meter, down to select PFL. To hear the 
stereo SOLO, the meter switch must be in the up 
position.
12 - 1-2 Group Assign switch
The 1-2 Group assign switch is used to assign the 
input channel to the 1-2 Group output bus. 
Note: The Group output follows the channel’s PAN 
control, so if a channel is panned all the way to the 
left it will only feed Group Output 1. Conversely, if a 
channel is panned all the way to the right, it will only 
feed Group Output 2.
13 – 3-4 Group Assign switch
The 3-4 Group assign switch is used to assign the 
input channel to the 3-4 Group output bus. 
Note: The Group output follows the channel’s PAN 
control so if a channel is panned all the way to the 
left, it will only feed Group Output 3. Conversely, if a 
channel is panned all the way to the right, it will only 
feed Group Output 4.
14 –MAIN Assign switch
The MAIN assign switch is used to assign the input 
channel to the left and right stereo bus outputs. 
15- VOLUME - Fader Level Control
The VOLUME Fader control adjusts the level of each 
mono input channel.
