7 man/auto/mute
Toggles between man/auto/mute.
man: Passes the audio through without changing the gain. This mode is used for singing
with a mic.
auto: Turns on Automixer. This mode is used for conversations.
mute: Mutes channels.
8 preset
Selects the channel mode (man/auto/mute) when the PRESET button in the master field
is pressed. The preset button lights when a preset is programmed for a channel.

OVERRIDE/PRESET/MUTE
Makes settings for each group (a/b/c) selected in the channel control field. Shows only
the selected group.
• OVERRIDE
When you press this button, channels where the channel override button is on will
fade in to 0 dB (unity gain). All channels with the override button turned off will be
muted.
• PRESET
When you press this button, each channel will switch to the mode indicated by the
mode button (man/auto/mute) next to the lit preset indicator.
•MUTE
When you press this button, all channels will fade out immediately (0.5 seconds).
2 meters
Switches the meter indicator in the channel control field. Toggles between gain, input,
and output each time you press the button.
NOTE
Meters should normally be set in gain mode.
3 reset
Initializes the Automixer settings.
Editing the internal effects
The internal effects of the QL series console can be mounted in EFFECT racks 1–8, and
patched to an output channel’s output or input channel’s input, or inserted into a channel. For
each effect mounted in a rack, you can choose one of 54 types of effect.
With the default settings, the signals from MIX channels 13–16 are input to racks 5–8, and
from the racks are then output to ST IN 1–4 (L/R). There are no assignments to racks 1–4.
NOTE
Some effect types can be mounted only in racks 1, 3, 5 or 7.
To use an internal effect via send and return, assign the output of a MIX channel to the input
of the effect, and assign the output of the effect to an input channel. In this case, the
corresponding output channel is used as a master channel for the effect send, and the input
channel is used as an effect return channel.
Alternatively, you can assign the input and output of the internal effect to the insert-out/in of a
desired channel (except for a ST IN channel), so that the effect is inserted into that channel.
The internal effects fall into two categories; “STEREO type” (2-in/2-out) effects that process
the L/R channel input signals independently, and “MIX type” (1-in/2-out) effects that mix the
two channels before processing them.
If signals are assigned to both the L and R inputs of an effect, the way in which the L/R
channels are processed will depend on whether a Stereo effect type or a Mix effect type is
selected, as follows.
