Layer Modes
Input Layer Mode
The Input layer mode controls the signals from I/O devices or internal busses. In this mode, each layer has digital trim controls and
pan/ balance/rotation controls for each channel or buss. When a channel is patched to an I/O with a preamp, the Input layer mode
provides control of the preamp.
PREAMP CONTROLS
When a channel is patched to an I/O preamp, the following preamp controls are available:
1
2
48v Phantom Power: Activates the microphone preamp 48v phantom power. Stereo channels have independent L/R 48v
phantom controls. Options: on/off; default: off
Preamp/Local select: Preamp mode adjusts the preamp’s analog gain, just like the preamp gain control in the device’s
control panel. Local is a digital gain stage that always delivers the user’s requested input gain, regardless of the preamp’s
analog gain setting. Refer to refer to Channel > >Input Sections >Controlling Preamp Gain on Shared Devices.
3
Preamp Analog Gain Control: Controls the analog level of an I/O device preamp. Knob position is displayed in the value box
and with a blue ring around the knob. Stereo channels have independent L/R input controls. Preamp control range varies
depending on the I/O, and adjustments made in the I/O control panel are reflected here.
Input Polarity Reverse: Reverses the polarity of an input channel. Each channel of a stereo input can be controlled separately.
Options: on/off; default: off
Channel Trim: Trims channel input level digitally. Trims buss input on buss channels. Stereo channels/busses have independent
left and right trim controls. Range: -144 dB to +10 dB
