CKSCKS

CKS

These high impedance inputs accept 3-pole `A’ gauge (TRS) jacks. Use these inputs for

sources such as keyboards, drum machines, synths, tape machines or returns from

processing units. The inputs are BALANCED for low noise and top quality from professional

equipment, but you can use UNBALANCED sources by wiring up the jacks as shown in

the “Connecting Leads” section on page 22 in this manual, although you should then

keep cable lengths as short as possible to prevent ‘hum’ being induced into the sound

system. Mono sources may be used by plugging into the left jack only.

The GAIN control sets the input level to the channel, allowing matching to a wide range

of line level sources.

HF EQHF EQ

HF EQ

Turn clockwise to boost high (treble) frequencies, adding crispness to percussion from

drum machines, synths and electronic instruments. Turn anticlockwise to cut these

frequencies, reducing hiss or excessive brilliance. Set the knob in the centre-detented

position when not required. The control has a shelving response giving 15dB of boost or

cut at 12kHz and above.

LF EQLF EQ

LF EQ

Turn clockwise to boost low (bass) frequencies, adding extra punch to synths, guitars

and drums. Turn anticlockwise to reduce hum, boominess or improve a mushy sound.

Set the knob to the centre-detented position when not required. The control has a

shelving response giving 15dB of boost or cut at 60Hz and below.

UX SENDSUX SENDS

UX SENDS

These are used to set up separate mixes for FOLDBACK, EFFECTS or recording, and the

combination of each Aux Send is mixed to the respective Aux Output at the rear of the

mixer. The sends are always PRE-FADE which is most appropriate for Foldback or Monitor

feeds, but note that the Line Inputs on pairs of Mono channels may be used as alternative

stereo inputs if post-fade sends are essential for effects.

The rotary level control adjusts the overall level of the signal which is fed to the Mix or

selected pair of Groups.

OUTINGOUTING

OUTING

The Stereo channel signal is fed either to a pair of Subgroups (switch UP) or the stereo

Mix (switch DOWN), at a level set by the LEVEL control. Stereo 1 feeds to Subgroups 1

& 2, Stereo 2 feeds to Subgroups 3 & 4.

7 - PFL7 - PFL

7 - PFL

When the latching PFL switch is pressed, the pre-fade, post-EQ signal is fed in mono to

the headphones, control room output and meters, where it replaces the selected monitor

source. The PFL/AFL LED on the Master section illuminates to warn that a PFL is active.

The Left and Right meters display the PFL signal in mono.
