Control Room/Phones/Meters CONTROL ROOM OUTPUTS The 1/4" TRS stereo control room outputs can be used to run a separate sound system in a control room or a different zone. Connect these outputs to the line-level inputs of an amplifier running passive studio monitors, or to the inputs of powered studio monitors. The headphones play the same program material as the control room. The meters show the levels prior to the control room and phones level controls. CONTROL ROOM/PHONES SOURCE The source that plays in the control room, headphones, and meters is selected using the switches in the control room/phones source matrix: • Main mix • Tape • Alt 3-4 • FW 1-2: The stereo FireWire 1-2 output from your computer • A combination of all four above If you do not select one of these, there will be no sound in the control room or phones, and no indication on the meters (unless a solo button is engaged). Assign to Main Mix Except for the main mix, whatever is selected as a source for your control room and phones can also be routed to the main mix by pressing this switch. The main mix does not play in the control room or phones if this switch is engaged. SOLO Whenever solo is engaged, all control room/ headphone source selections (main mix, alt 3-4, tape, and FireWire) are defeated, and you will only hear the soloed channel(s) in the headphones and control room. This gives you the opportunity to audition the channels before they are added to the main mix or alt 3-4 mix. The main mix continues to play, so the show can still go on during solo. When a channel is soled, you can adjust the channel gain until your input source reaches the 0 dB LED in the right meter. Solo signals reaching the headphones and control room are not affected by the channel level or main level, therefore turn down the phones level and control room level first, as soloed channels may be loud. Main Mix Select main mix to listen to the main mix in the control room or headphones. The meters show the level after the main mix fader. Control Room Outputs Tape Select tape to listen to the RCA tape input in the control room or headphones. The meters show the level coming in from your tape or CD player. Press assign to main mix to play intermission music in your main mix. Alt 3-4 Select alt 3-4 to listen to the alt 3-4 mix in the control room or headphones. This is a stereo mix of any channels that have their mute/alt 3-4 switch engaged. This can be used for cueing up sources prior to "going live," and for other useful reasons. The meters show the level of the alt 3-4 output. FW 1-2 Select FW 1-2 to listen in the control room or headphones to the FireWire 1 and 2 audio streams coming from your computer. The meters will show the levels of the signals coming in from your computer. 1 ONYX MIC PRE 2 ONYX MIC PRE 3 ONYX MIC PRE 4 ONYX MIC PRE CTRL - RM OUT BAL/UNBAL MAIN OUT BAL/UNBAL ALT 3-4 OUT BAL/UNBAL L R L R L/3 R/4 LINE IN 5-6 LINE IN 7-8 LINE IN 9-10 LINE IN 11-12 TAPE L IN OUT R 1 LINE BAL/UNBAL LINE HI-Z 48V 2 LINE BAL/UNBAL LINE HI-Z 3 LINE BAL/UNBAL 75Hz 18dB/OCT 4 LINE BAL/UNBAL 75Hz 18dB/OCT 48V 48V 48V L (MONO) BAL/UNBAL R L (MONO) BAL/UNBAL R L (MONO) BAL/UNBAL R L (MONO) BAL/UNBAL R PREMIUM ANALOG MIXER w/ PERKINS EQ & FIREWIRE 30 U 20 40 GAIN U 60 -20dB +40dB 30 U 20 40 GAIN U 60 -20dB +40dB 30 U 20 40 GAIN U 60 -20dB +40dB 30 U 20 40 GAIN U 60 -20dB +40dB U GAIN -20dB +20dB U GAIN -20dB +20dB U GAIN -20dB +20dB U GAIN -20dB +20dB SEND PRE POST U EQ -15 +15 1k HIGH 12kHz SEND PRE POST U EQ -15 +15 1k HIGH 12kHz SEND PRE POST U EQ -15 +15 1k HIGH 12kHz SEND PRE POST U EQ -15 +15 1k HIGH 12kHz SEND PRE POST U EQ HIGH 12kHz -15 +15 SEND PRE POST U EQ HIGH 12kHz -15 +15 SEND PRE POST U EQ HIGH 12kHz -15 +15 SEND INPUT LINE U FW 1-2 HIGH 12kHz -15 +15 FREQ FREQ FREQ FREQ 100 8k U 100 8k U 100 8k U 100 8k U MID MID MID MID -15 +15 U -15 +15 U -15 +15 U -15 +15 U LOW 80Hz LOW 80Hz LOW 80Hz LOW 80Hz -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 -15 +15 AUX AUX AUX AUX U MID 2.5kHz -15 +15 U LOW 80Hz -15 +15 AUX U MID 2.5kHz -15 +15 U LOW 80Hz -15 +15 AUX U MID 2.5kHz -15 +15 U LOW 80Hz -15 +15 AUX U MID 2.5kHz -15 +15 U LOW 80Hz -15 +15 AUX CTRL ROOM/PHONES SOURCE MAIN MIX TAPE FW 1-2 ALT 3-4 ASSIGN TO MAIN MIX OO MAX CONTROL ROOM OO MAX PHONES 0dB=0dBu LR 20 CLIP 15 10 6 3 0 2 LEVEL 4 SET 7 10 20 30 RUDE SOLO AUX MASTER SEND RETURN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX 2 MAX PAN OO OO 1 MAX PRE POST 2 MAX PAN PRE POST OO OO 1 +15 RTN TO AUX1 2 +15 OO OO 1 +10 2 +10 L R L R L R L R L R L R L R L R POWER MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 MUTE ALT 3/4 dB dB dB dB dB dB dB dB MIC dB 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 5 U U U U U U U U U OL OL OL OL OL OL OL OL 5 - 20 5 - 20 5 - 20 5 - 20 5 - 20 5 - 20 5 - 20 5 - 20 OO MAX LEVEL 5 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 10 DESTINATION 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 20 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 30 40 50 40 50 40 50 40 50 40 50 40 50 40 50 40 50 PHONES AUX 1-2 40 50 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 60 OO OO OO OO OO OO OO OO OO SOLO 1 SOLO 2 SOLO 3 SOLO 4 SOLO SOLO SOLO SOLO 5-6 7-8 9-10 11-12 TALKBACK TALKBACK MAIN MIX Headphones Control Room/ Phones Source Assign to Main Mix Phones Level Control Room Level Quick Start Guide 11
