MONO/SUB XLR OUTPUT CONNECTOR A balanced XLR output is featured for center mono main mix or subwoofers. USB POWER PORTS supplies +5V allows powering/recharging your I-Pod™ or the use of our LED desk lights (sold seperately). 9-BAND EQ SWITCH 1 & 2 These switches swap the 9-band EQ's from the standard L/R main outputs, to the MON 1 & MON 2 outputs. DUAL PRECISION 9 BAND GRAPHIC EQs are one octave filters at 63,125, 250, 500, 1k, 2k, 4k, 8k & 16k Hz centers that offer ±12dB adjustment to help eliminate feedback & enhance tone for the main or monitor mix. L/R LED VU METERS 10 LED's offer 6 dB increment resolution that give the operator a visual indication of the mixer's output levels, selectable by the METER SOURCE or PFL switches. DUAL STEREO EFFECT PROCESSORS The dual internal 24-BIT stereo processors feature Echo, Reverb, Chorus and Flange. Each effect has selectable parameters (up to 256) to tailor the effect. Both processors feature a RETURN TO MONITORS. EFFECTS 1,2, 3 & 4 Returns. PHONES & METER SOURCE The stereo PHONES control sets the level of the PHONES jack. The PFL, L/R, MONO, MON 1-MON 6, USB IN, and REC OUT USB switches allow for monitoring of these sources through the headphones and the L/R LED METERS. MONITOR 1-6 MASTER OUTPUT CONTROLS MONO/SUB CONTROL A mono output is created from the L/R master faders (post) for center, subwoofers, or side fill speakers. 4 BUS COMPRESSORS & LINK SWITCHES GROUP/SUB-MIX FADERS 1-4 Once a channel has been assigned to one of these faders, the mixing process is simplified to using these four faders. By assigning the 4 faders to the Master L-R faders, the operator can use the faders to sub-mix groups. GROUP ASSIGNMENT SWITCHES send the sub-group mix to the main L/R faders. For mono mixing, assign to both L/R. MASTER L/R FADERS adjust the level of the main stereo output created by all channels and groups assigned to L/R faders. 7
