CONTOUR MIN MAX TAP TIME LEVEL / DEPTH • Mono the Main Mix by pressing the front panel Mono but- ton. To mono only a specific output, use the rear panel Mono switch on the Main Outs, or the auto-mono single plug feature of the Zone and Booth Outs. • Apply effects to the entire Main Mix by engaging the Main Mix (blue) FlexFX button. This button instantly sends PGMs 1-4 and Mic 1-2 to the FlexFX Bus. • The Main Mix is metered using a stereo rms/peak signal meter with peak-hold. • Record Outs • Stereo unbalanced RCA and S/PDIF outputs. • The S/PDIF output is a 24-bit 48 kHz digital output. • The Main Mix, Mic 1, or Mic 2, may be recorded via USB record channel six. Record source selection is made in the computer's MP26 driver control panel. The Main Mix feeds these outputs: • Main Outs • Front panel Balance and Level controls manage the relative (left/right) and overall levels respectively. • The rear panel Mono switch combines the left and right channels of the Main output, and an attenuator controls the Max Out dB from 8 Vrms (0 dB) to 0.5 Vrms (-24 dB). • The Main Output is available on balanced XLR and unbalanced RCA connectors. • Booth and Zone Outs • Front panel Booth and Zone Level controls adjust the corresponding output level. • Booth and Zone Outputs are available on balanced ¼˝ TRS jacks. Left and right jacks automatically provide a mono signal if the other plug is not inserted. FlexFX The FlexFX architecture in the MP26 is more powerful than typical effect insert solutions. The architecture includes the FlexFX Bus, an auxiliary bus routed to the FlexFX Loop which includes two independent effects inserts. Any combination of PGM 1-4 and Mic 1-2 may be routed to the FlexFX Bus. Any combination of internal digital, external analog and USB effects may be applied within the FlexFX Loop. It is possible to cue and meter the FlexFX Loop return. You can bypass the entire FlexFX Loop using a single button to instantly punch in and out a combination of effects. The final FlexFX Output Level controls the level of the FlexFX audio in the Main Mix. The flexibility of the FlexFX architecture makes it a very powerful tool. So, it is important to take some time to understand FlexFX signal routing and controls. 11
