AUX SENDS These rotary controls adjust how much channel

signal is mixed to the aux outputs. Each of the 6 auxes has its own

control. They adjusts from fully off to +6dB boost. Unity gain 0dB is

marked at 3 o’clock position. Factory default settings should satisfy

the most common applications:

AUX1, AUX2 = Pre-fade

AUX3, AUX4 = Switched pre/post using PRE swittch

AUX5, AUX6 = Post-fade

Pre-fade aux = Pre-INSERT, pre-EQ, post-MUTE

These settings may be changed if preferred by repositioning internal

jumper link options. They offer many different combinations of pre and

post-fade sends, and a post-EQ option for the pre-fade sends. The

PRE switch can be assigned to one, two or more of the sends. More

detail is provided in OPTIONS later in this guide.

Pre-fade aux sends are not affected by the channel fader movements.

These are typically used to feed stage monitors. In most cases users

also prefer that the monitor sends are not affected by inserted

processors or the channel EQ. Post-fade aux sends follow the channel

faders and are typically used to send a proportion of the channel signal

to an effects device such as reverb or delay. Pre or post-fade sends

may also be used for special applications such as recording, zone

feeds, clean feeds and aux fed subs.

PRE When pressed the pre-fade channel signal is sent to the

associated auxes. When released the post-fade signal is sent. Auxes

3 and 4 are affected by the PRE switch (factory default). You can

change this by repositioning the internal option jumpers.

PAN Positions the channel signal between L and R in the stereo

mix. The centre position (mono image) is detented for quick resetting.

MUTE When pressed the channel signal is turned off. This affects

the feed to the LR mix, pre and post-fade aux sends and direct output,

but does not affect the insert send. The red indicator lights when the

channel is muted.

PFL Press PFL to listen to the pre-fade channel signal in the

headphones or AB monitor (if configured) without affecting the main

outputs. The console main LR meters are interrupted with the channel

signal. The red PK indicator half lights to show that PFL has been

selected on that channel. Selecting more than one PFL at the same

time mixes those signals together in the monitor.

PEAK The red indicator illuminates when the channel pre-fade

signal is within 5dB of clipping. This gives you enough warning to

reduce the GAIN control before you hear signal distortion.

SIGNAL The green signal presence indicator lights when the

channel pre-fade signal is greater than -12dBu.

FADER Controls the channel level feeding the main LR mix and

post-fade aux sends. It also affects the direct output if this has been

set to post-fade using the internal option jumpers. The fader provides

+10dB maximum boost above its normal unity gain 0dB position.

Important note on setting channel levels: Use PFL to set the GAIN

controls for correct signal level through each channel. Use the faders

to balance each signal in the mix. These are typically operated around

their -20 to 0 positions according to the mix. We do not

recommend

setting the faders to ‘0’ and mixing using the GAIN controls.
