Controls and Functions
HF (HIGH FREQUENCY)
12KHz +/- 15dB shelving type. The channel’s frequency response is flat when
the knobs are in the "12:00" position. Rotating the knob towards the right will
boost the corresponding frequency band by 15dB, and rotating it towards the left
will cut the frequency by 15dB.
LF (LOW FREQUENCY)
80Hz +/- 15dB shelving type. The channel’s frequency response is flat when the
knobs are in the "12:00" position. Rotating the knob towards the right will boost
the corresponding frequency band by 15dB, and rotating it towards the left will
cut the frequency by 15dB.
AUX 1/2 Switch
When the AUX1/2 switch is in the up position, the LED is off and the AUX send
for the dual/mono channel will be assigned to AUX1. If you are using the AUX 1
for a monitor mix in a live sound application, you will be able to add the channel
to the monitor mix when the switch is set to AUX1. When the AUX1/2 button is
pressed down the green LED will illuminate, indicating that the Aux send will now
feed the AUX 2 bus. If you are using the AUX2 bus to drive the internal, 24 BIT
digital effects, you will be able to add effects to the channel when it is set to
AUX2.
AUX Control Knob
The Aux 1/2 control knob controls the amount of signal that is sent to the AUX 1
or 2 bus depending on the position of the AUX1/2 switch as described above.
PAN
The MDR10’s PAN control is used to place or position the stereo signal into the
main Left and Right MIX bus. You can move a stereo signal’s image to the left or
right by setting the PAN control to the left or to the right.
SOLO Switch
When engaged, the yellow LED illuminates indicating the input channel is
assigned to the SOLO bus. The SOLO switch has a “momentary” action that
activates a logic control switch. Pressing the switch repeatedly will assign the
input channel on or off the SOLO bus. You can use the SOLO LEVEL control to
adjust the overall volume to the SOLO Bus.
MUTE 3/4 OUTPUT Switch
The MUTE 3/4 switches are used to assign the channels to the either the main
LEFT and RIGHT MIX bus, or the secondary, 3/4 stereo bus. Any channels that
have the 3/4 switch pressed in (the LED is on) will be heard in the 3/4 outputs. If
you are only mixing in stereo and not connecting anything to the 3/4 outputs, you can use the 3/4 switches

CHANNEL EQUALIZER
The MDR10 Stereo/Dual-mono input channels feature a 2-band equalizer allowing you to adjust the high and
low frequencies independently on each channel. The channel’s frequency response is flat when the knobs are in
the "12:00" position. Rotating the knob towards the right will boost the corresponding frequency band by 15dB,
and rotating it towards the left will cut the frequency by 15dB. The frequency centers, range of boost or cut, and
equalizer type for each band are as follows:
