User manual YAMAHA PSS51

[. . . ] Do not open the case or attempt repairs or modifications yourself This product contains no user-serviceable parts. Opening the case and/or tampering with the internal circuitry voids the warranty. Always power off before making connections Always turn the power OFF before connecting or disconnecting cables. This is important to prevent damage to the unit itself as well as other connected equipment. [. . . ] Use the paired INPUT 13/14 and 15/16 jacks (see page 17, rear panel 5) to input stereo signals. If you connect signals only to the 13L (MONO) jack or 15L (MONO) jack, the same signal will be sent t the o M1­4 and ST buses. HIGH A GAIN control +15 ­15 This control is used to adjust input sensitivity. The adjustable range is +10 dB to ­34 dB. HI-MID B PEAK indicator +15 ­15 LO-MID 4 +15 This indicator lights up when the level of signals that have been processed by the EQ reaches 3 dB below the clipping level. ­15 C High pass filter switch This high pass filter is used to cut the frequency range below 80 Hz with a slope of 12 dB/ oct. LOW ­15 +15 EQ M1 5 D EQ controls (HIGH/HI-MID/LO-MID/LOW) This 4-band equalizer provides ±15 dB of cut and boost over each range, with the center frequencies and types shown in the following table. Band Center frequencies 10 kHz 3 kHz 800 Hz 100 Hz Type shelving peaking peaking shelving 0 10 M2 ON 6 0 10 M3 ON HIGH 7 0 10 HI-MID LO-MID LOW M4 ON 0 10 M5 ON 0 10 E EQ switch This switch is used to turn the equalization on and off. M6 PRE 0 10 M7 F M1­M4 mix level controls 9 These controls are used to route the pre fader signals from the stereo input channel to MIX buses 1­4. When stereo signals are input, the L channel signal will be sent to MIX buses 1, 3, and the R channel signal will be sent to MIX buses 2 and 4. Note: When you press down the M1­M4 switches to the FIX position in the Variable/ Fix select section (see page 6), the output level of signals sent to the MIX buses will be fixed and the corresponding M1­M4 mix level controls will be disabled. 8 0 10 M8 PRE 0 10 M9 0 10 M10 PRE 0 10 BAL 0 L R G ON switches (M1­M4) These switches are used to turn on and off the signals routed from the stereo input channel to MIX buses 1­4. Note: When these switches are set to off, no signals are sent from the stereo input channel to the corresponding MIX buses regardless of the setting of the switches in the Variable/Fix select section (see page 6). A ST B ON PFL C 10 5 0 H M5­M10 mix level controls D These control knobs route the stereo input channel signals to MIX buses 5­10. Stereo input signals are mixed into a monaural signal and sent to MIX buses 5­10. Use the PRE switches 9 to select pre- or post-fader. 5 10 20 30 40 50 60 GA32/12, GA24/12--Owner's Manual Stereo input channels 5 I PRE (Pre-fader) switches These switches are used to select pre- or post-fader for signals sent from the stereo input channel to MIX buses 5­10. When you turn these switches on, the pre-fader signals are sent to the corresponding MIX bus pair. J BAL (Balance) control This control is used to adjust the left and right balance of signals sent from the stereo input channel to the ST bus. K ST (Stereo) switch When you turn this switch on, the stereo input channel signals will be sent to the ST bus. Signals that pass through the M1­M4 mix level controls of each input channel (see page 2, monaural input channel 8, and page 4, stereo input channel 6) are sent to the corresponding MIX buses. 1 M3 FIX M4 FIX Mix section This section consists of the output channels that handle MIX bus 1­10 signals individually. Signals that pass these output channels are output from MIX OUT 1­10 jacks (see page 17, rear panel 6), and also routed to the AFL bus. The signal is not sent to the AFL bus, either. 0 0 R R 0 0 LEVEL LEVEL 3 0 10 0 10 4 ON 1 AFL ON 2 AFL MATRIX E AFL (After-fader Listen) switch 5 When you turn this switch on, the matrix 1­2 post-fader signals are sent to the AFL bus. You can monitor the signals via the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks or PHONES jack. However, this switch will be disabled if the ON switch (4) is turned off. ST LR from 1 MIX OUT 2 M1 3 M2 4 M3 ON M4 L R LEVEL MATRIX OUT 1, 2 AFL AFL LR to Meter Signal flow in the MATRIX section GA32/12, GA24/12--Owner's Manual 12 Master Section C-R MONI (Control room monitor) section PHONES (headphones) section This section enables you to control signals monitored via the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks (see page 18, rear panel M) and the PHONES jack on the front panel (C-R MONI section/ PHONES section 6). A Monitor source select switch PFL/AFL TAPE IN PFL LEVEL 1 2 3 This switch enables you to select the type of signal to monitor via the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks and the PHONES jack. s When the switch is set to PFL/AFL ( ) 0 10 ON 4 5 10 C-R MONI LEVEL 0 You will monitor PFL signals (signals routed from input channels/AUX returns to the PFL bus) or AFL signals (signals routed from MIX buses 1­10/ST buses/MATRIX 1­2 to the AFL bus). If any one of the PFL switches for the input channels/AUX returns is turned on, the PFL indicator 2 will light up. In this case, the PFL bus signals (not the AFL bus signals) are routed to the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks and PHONES jack. If all the PFL switches are turned off, the AFL bus signals are sent to the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks and PHONES jack. Note: If you turn on any one of the PFL switches for the input channels/AUX returns while monitoring the AFL bus signal, the switching circuit will switch the signal to the PFL bus signal. s When the switch is set to TAPE IN ( ) You can monitor the signals input from the TAPE IN jacks (see page 18, rear panel N). B PFL (Pre-fader Listen) indicator This indicator lights up when any one of the PFL switches for the input channels/AUX returns is turned on, indicating that the PFL bus signal is currently being monitored. 6 C LEVEL control This control enables you to adjust the level of signals output from the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks. This setting does not affect the signal level at the PHONES jack. D ON switch PHONES This switch turns on and off the monitoring signals output from the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks. It does not affect signals at the PHONES jack. E LEVEL (Headphones level) control This control enables you to adjust the level of signals output from the PHONES jack. This setting does not affect the signal level at the C-R MONITOR OUT jacks. F PHONES (Headphones) jack Connect monitoring stereo headphones here.
