A MONO INPUT and EQ. The input preamp

matches microphone or line level signals to the

console. The sweepable high pass filter removes

unwanted low frequency sounds below the selected

frequency. The channel insert is post filter, pre EQ.

A swept frequency 4 band equaliser provides

shelving high and low bands with adjustable shelf

frequency, and fully parametric high and low mid

bands with adjustable centre frequency and Q. The

filter and EQ can be independently switched in or

out.

B GRP/AUX SENDS. This section provides

controls for the group routing and auxiliary sends.

Controls 1-8 function according to the setting of the

mode switches in the master section F . These

configure group routing switches and independent

post-fade aux sends for FOH (front-of-house)

application, or pre/post switchable sends for stage

monitor application. Controls 9-16 can be

configured as mono or stereo pre/post aux sends.

C MAIN MIX SENDS. A single switch routes the

channel signal to the main L, R and C outputs. The

balance between the three outputs is determined by

the LCRplus pan and blend controls. Pan can also

be switched in or out of the group routing for stereo

or mono groups.

D INPUT FADERS. Includes the channel fader,

mute, signal meter and PAFL monitoring. The 8

VCA group assignments are displayed. VCA and

mute group editing and channel safe selection is

performed using the mute switch with green

safe/edit indicator below.

E STEREO INPUT and EQ. The input preamp

accepts two stereo sources with independent

control of each. This allows selection of either or

mixing together both sources. A fixed frequency 4

band equaliser provides shelving high and low

bands and two bell mid bands. The EQ can be

switched in or out.

F GRP/AUX 1-8 MASTERS. These are the

fader masters for channel sends 1-8, configurable

using mode switches as fixed level groups or as

variable level pre or post-fade auxes. The output

can be routed to the main mix through LCRplus

controls to create sub groups. LED meters display

the pre-fade mix levels.

G AUX 9-16 MASTERS. These are the fader

masters for channel sends 9-16.

H ROTARY AUX 1-8 MASTERS. These are the

rotary masters for channel post-fade aux sends 1-8.

They provide the independent effects sends when

the fader masters are configured as groups. They

still function when the fader masters are configured

as pre/post auxes but would not normally be

required.

I MAIN MIX FADERS. Provides separate master

faders and mutes for the main L, R and C outputs.

A mode switch configures the C output as the

engineers wedge monitor feed for the stage monitor

application.

J MATRIX. This section provides all the controls

for the 8 matrix outputs, including the source and

master rotaries.

K VCA GROUPS. These are the VCA group

master faders, mutes and PAFL monitor switches.

Channels are assigned to the groups using the edit

key. The normal fader operating level is marked ‘0’.

L MUTE GROUPS. These are the master keys

that mute all channels assigned to the group.

Channels are assigned using the edit key.

M SNAPSHOT MEMORIES. Provides the

controls to store, recall and preview the 128

onboard memories, and edit channel safes. Mute

settings and/or VCA assignments can be disabled

from the snapshots.

N SOLO-IN-PLACE. Pressed with the shift key

this puts the console into SIP mode ready to solo

any channel when its mute key is pressed.

O HEADPHONES / MONITOR. Provides source

selection and independent control of the

headphones and local monitor outputs.

P PAFL CONTROL. This section controls how

the intelligent PAFL system functions and provides

the clear all key.

Q OSC/NOISE GENERATOR. Enables and

selects a 1kHz tone or pink noise which can be

routed to any output for line up or system testing.

R INTERCOM. The console talkback mic and

headphones can be interfaced to a ClearCom

compatible intercom system so eliminating the need

for a separate intercom headset.

S TALKBACK. Pressing the talk switch routes

the talkback mic to any output with its TB enable

switch selected. The mic input is duplicated on the

rear panel for plugging in hand held microphones.

T GRP/AUX 1-8 METERS. These moving coil

VU meters display the grp/aux 1-8 outputs.

U LRC/PAFL METERS. The main L,R and C

outputs are simultaneously displayed on both VU

and LED bar meters. These switch to display any

PFL or AFL when selected. The display is mono or

mono + stereo depending on source. The large call

lamp lights to warn when the intercom is signalled.

V AUX 9-16 / MTX 1-8 METERS. These meters

display either the aux 9-16 outputs or matrix 1-8

levels according to the setting of the meter select

switch near section O .
