that are assigned to grand master vca B will be summed onto the solo busses when the vca solo is

active.

Note i. When grand master vca B solo switch is active the PFL buss also receives signals but they

are NOT a true representation of the relative levels within the grand master vca sub group. This

feature is however useful as it allows confirmation of signal present and signal quality when the

grand master vca fader is down or muted. It is therefore important to know the status of the PFL

MONITOR switch on the COMMS module before using the grand master vca solo switches.

Note ii. If a grand master vca solo switch is pressed for a short time it will latch on or off, but if it

is held on for more than 1 second the latching is disabled and when the switch is released the solo

will turn off.

2. The ISOlate B switch disconnects the grand master vca B sub group faders and mutes from

automation screen recall. Screen storage is still active.

3. The vca MUTE B switch mutes any AUDIO group post fader signals which are assigned to the

grand master B vca sub group.

4. The grand master B VCA GROUP fader is motorised and under automation control. It gives

continuous adjustment of the grand master vca sub group gain from +10dB to off.

XL422 Matrix Pod.

1. The CHANGE OVER switches change the function of the left and right meters so that they

monitor the stereo aux send outputs in place of the matrix outputs.

2. The METERS monitor the peak signal level of the matrix or stereo aux outputs as described

above but when the GLOBAL METER CHANGE OVER switch on the COMMS module is

activated the meters monitor the matrix bus or stereo aux bus amplifiers (which ever is selected).

XL441 Matrix Module.

1. The STEREO AUX MASTER control gives continuous adjustment of the stereo aux output

level from + 10dB to off.

2. The stereo aux MUTE switch mutes the stereo aux outputs.

3. The stereo aux SOLO switch sends stereo aux signals to the PFL mono and AFL stereo busses.

If the switch is pressed for a short time it will latch on or off, but if it is held on for more than 1

second the latching is disabled and when the switch is released the solo will turn off.

4. The MTX switch sends the pre fader stereo aux bus signals to the matrix mix directly below so

that the console can be used for monitor applications.

5. The MIX controls (1 to 16) give continuous adjustment of the audio sub group levels sent to

the matrix mixes from + 6dB to off. If the FADER CHANGE OVER switch on the GROUP

module is active the aux bus will route to the matrix mix in place of the audio sub group.

6. The GLOBAL PRE ON switch changes the audio sub group signals that are routed via the mix
