FX MUTE button
and indicator en-
ables/disables the

Meter section.
Level meter indicates the
signal level of the monitor
bus. Be careful that L/R out-
put only momentarily goes
into the orange indicators.
The average signal should
bounce over and under ""db.
The
ANALYZER screen (page
58) analyzes the same signal
as shown in the level meter,
and indicates the level of each
frequency region.
CUE indicator indicates the signal source
of the monitor bus that is shown in the
level meter.
Lit: The signal of the channel or bus for
which
PFL or AFL is enabled

MAIN MIX bus
48V indicator lights when the MIC phan-
tom power supply is on.
STEREO IN knob
Adjusts the vol-
ume of the front
panel
STEREO IN
jack.
The signal ad-
justed by this knob
is sent directly to the
MAIN OUT
output jacks. It is not muted by
BREAK, etc., since that is when
it's often used for music between
sets or before a service.
MONITOR section
Adjusts the output level of each
monitor source.
The monitor
output will out-
put either the
MAIN L/R bus
or the monitor
bus.
The signal
source is indi-
cated by the
CUE indicator.
If you connect a foot switch (sold separately),
you can control FX MUTE remotely.
If mute is enabled using a foot switch,
the indicator blinks.
