[. . . ] This pair of sockets can be used for line level inputs if the switch is in the `line' position Line Pair This stereo pair of sockets is used for line level inputs. There is a boost of +14dB or cut of -10dB available via switches under the top fascia. These will be set by the installing engineer. Ground Point This is for use with turntables which require a ground lead. 21 MASTER SECTION 22 Meters The L & R bargraph meters show, by default, the signal levels at the Master Left and Right outputs. If any Cue switch on the desk is pressed the meters display the level of the cued signal. Split Switch If the Split switch is depressed the meters will show a mono sum of the cued signal on the left meter, and a mono sum of the prefader master outputs on the right meter. Note that the split button has no effect on the meter display until a cue button is pressed. Aux Send/Return This section allows the use of an external effects unit. NOTE: It can also be used as an alternative record output and an additonal stereo input. Send Outputs The stereo pair of sockets feeds signals from the the Aux left & right buses. Return Inputs The stereo pair of sockets is used to input a feed from an external effects unit. The signal is controlled via the on switch (note that the cue switch is before the on switch in the signal path). The post-pot signal is assignable to the cross fader via the A/Master/B switch A/Master/B Switch This 3-position switch routes the return signal to one of three pairs of stereo buses. If the Master position is selected the signal is routed diretly to the booth and master outputs. If the A or B position is selected then the signal is routed via the cross fader. Master HPF The high-pass filter is selected by depressing the hpf switch. Mono This switch, when depressed, sums the stereo signal to a mono signal. Balance The balance controls allows the left/right balance of a stereo signal to be adjusted. Cue Pressing this button routes the pre-level-control signal to the headphones and meters. A LED in the switch indicates when Cue is selected. 23 Booth EQ The booth eq has two bands. Left/Stereo/Right This 3-position works as follows: left: mono signal is fed to booth left ouput only stereo: normal stereo right: mono signal is fed to booth right ouput only Dim When depressed this switch causes the booth outputs to be cut by 12dB. XF Curve The XF Curve pot allows the cross-fader law to be varied from `constant power' mode to `performance/scratch' mode. Headphones In normal mode the headphones circuit monitors the master left & right outputs. A cue switch anywhere on the desk is pressed the headphones will monitor the appropriate signal. EQ The single eq pot varies the headphones between dark and bright characteristics. Balance Pot The balance pot allows adjustment of the left/right balance of the stereo headphone signal. In cue mode the balance control becomes a stereo cue/main balance control. [. . . ] The processed (wet) signal is returned to the mix through a channel where it adds to the direct (dry) signal routed from the channel fader. The channel signal is sent to a digital processor that samples (stores) a short duration of sound. The output is returned through a channel and replayed by pressing a trigger. The art of rhythmically rocking a record back and forward on a turntable to manipulate the audio signal. [. . . ]
