4BALANCE
This control sets the amount of the channel signal feeding the pairs of Groups, allowing
you to balance the source in the stereo image. When the control is turned fully right or
left you feed only that side of the signal to the Groups selected by the Routing switch
(see below).
5 ROUTING
This switch selects either Groups 1 & 2 (switch released) or Groups 3 & 4 (switch pressed)
as the destination for the channel signal after it has passed through the BAL control.
6 FADER
The linear FADER gives you smooth control of the overall signal level in the channel
strip, allowing precise balancing of the various source signals being mixed to the Master
Section. It is important that the input level is set correctly with the +4/-10 switch to give
maximum travel on the fader which should normally be used at around the 0 mark.
See the Initial Setting Up section for help in setting a suitable signal level.
7 SOLO
The latching SOLO switch has two distinctive modes of operation, depending on the
position of the master section SOLO MODE switch. When this switch is released
(AFL/PFL) all channel SOLO switches function as PFL (Pre-Fade-Listen). When SOLO
MODE is pressed (IN PLACE) all SOLO switches become a SOLO-IN-PLACE facility.
In PFL/AFL mode, pressing the SOLO switch feeds a mono sum of the pre-fade channel
signal to the monitor output, headphones and Right Bargraph Meter, replacing the
selected source. You use this switch to listen to a channel signal without affecting the
mixer outputs, to check the signal quality or simply to check that it is there!
In SOLO mode, pressing one or more channel SOLO switches mutes all other channels
leaving the selected channels alone in the mix. The Stereo Returns or FX Returns are
not muted, and this allows the selected channels to be monitored in their true stereo
position, including any effects which may have been added.
When the SOLO switch is pressed the associated LED lights continuously to show which
channels are being monitored.
