Input channels

V5.8 Reference Manual

TO STEREO/MONO window (8ch)

Here you can control the on/off and pan/balance settings of the signal sent from input

channels to the STEREO (L/R) bus and MONO (C) bus, in groups of eight channels.

1 Channel select button

Selects the channel. You can select multiple channels simultaneously.

2 Mode LEDs

The LED of the currently-selected mode will light.

3 MODE select button

For a MONO channel, the mode can be switched between ST/MONO and LCR. For a

STEREO channel, the mode can be switched between PAN and BALANCE.

4 ST/MONO buttons

These buttons are on/off switches for signals that are sent from each channel to the

STEREO bus/MONO bus when the MONO button is set to ST/MONO mode.

5 Σ clipping indicator

Lights to indicate a signal is clipping at some point in the channel.

6 TO ST PAN/TO ST BALANCE knob

For MONO channels, this acts as a PAN knob that adjusts the left/right panning of

signals sent to the STEREO bus. For STEREO channels, this acts as a PAN knob, and also

as a BALANCE knob that adjusts the volume of the left and right signals sent to the

STEREO bus. To adjust the value, press the knob to select it, and then operate the

corresponding multifunction knob.

7 Tabs

Enable you to switch between windows.

8 LCR button

If the MODE button is set to LCR mode, this button is displayed instead of

4. This

button is an overall on/off button for signals sent from a channel to the STEREO bus and

MONO bus. If this button is off, no signals will be sent from the corresponding input

channel to the STEREO bus or MONO bus.

9 CSR knob

Adjusts the relative level of signals sent from the channel to the STEREO (L/R) bus and

to the MONO (C) bus, in the range of 0 - 100%. To adjust the value, press the knob to

select it, and then operate the corresponding multifunction knob (page 42).
