Features and controls English y C.F CURVE Allows you to adjust the cross-fader response curve from soft (counter-clockwise) to hard (clockwise). u C.F REVERSE Sets the direction of the cross-fader. When in the OFF, position, moving the cross-fader toward A increases the volume of the A signal and moving the cross-fader toward B increases the volume of the B signal. The ON setting reverses this i Meters This pair of peak meters indicates either the post-fader (PGM or MASTER) MASTER signal level in stereo, or the mono CUE signal levels. o Meter selection switch (L/R -CUE/PROG) Switches the meter indication between the MASTER program (the switch is up) and the CUE signals (the switch is depressed). p EFFECTS ON switch and indicator When this switch is on, the indicator lights, and the master external effect loop is active. a MASTER fader Adjusts the level of the signal from the MASTER OUTPUT jacks (both the balanced XLR and the unbalanced RCA connectors). s AUX IN LEVEL Adjusts the level of the signals from the AUX IN jacks. d AUX IN Use these unbalanced RCA connectors to connect line level equipment, such as CD players, cassette decks, DAT decks, MD players, or another X-17, etc. This input signal is input immediately pre-MASTER fader. f AUX OUT LEVEL Adjusts the signal level output from the AUX OUTPUT jacks. g BOOTH OUT LEVEL Adjusts the signal level output from the BOOTH OUTPUT jacks. h REC OUTPUT These unbalanced RCA jacks output the pre-MASTER fader signal. This can be useful for a number of purposes: for example, you could connect a recorder to these jacks, and record your live performance without the MASTER level affecting the recording. j PRE/POST insert switch for REC OUT This switch controls what is output from the REC OUT jacks. When this switch is in the PRE setting (the switch is depressed): The four PGM signals and the sampler signal, without the master insert loop. In the POST setting: The four PGM signals and the sampler signal, with the master insert loop, the AUX IN signal, and both the MAIN and AUX MIC signals. k CompactFlashTM card slot This slot holds a CompactFlash card which you can use to save sampled sounds from the X-17's internal memory, and to load them into the X-17's internal memory. This allows you to carry your favorite samples in a compact, robust format. The card can only be inserted in one direction. Press the eject button to the right of the slot to eject the card. Cover this slot using the attached protective cover when it is not in use. See the section on the sampler below for full details of how to use the card and the sampler. CompactFlash is a trademark of the CompactFlash Association. l SAMPLER SOURCE selector SAVE: Saves the X-17's internal sample data to the CompactFlash card. LOAD: Loads sample data from the CompactFlash card into the X-17's internal memory. MIC, 1-4: Select the sampling source (the MIC inputs or any of the 4 PGMs). ; SAMPLER PITCH Adjusts the sampler's playback pitch and speed from half speed (SLOW) to double speed (FAST). z SAMPLER LEVEL Adjusts the output level of the sampler signal. x SAMPLER CUE switch and indicator Sends the sampler pre-LEVEL signal to the CUE monitor (the indicator lights when this is activate). c SAMPLER LOOP key and indicator Toggles sampler loop play on and off (the indicator lights when sampler loop play is active). v IN/
