Appendices
For two adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered input
channels (or ST IN channel L/R), these settings convert the
two-channel signal from an MS mic into L/R signals.
A S-GAIN knob
This knob sets the proportionate level of the S mic rela-
tive to the level of the M mic. The current value is
shown in the numerical box at the right.
At the MONO position, the S mic level will be at –
∞, at
the STEREO position the M mic and S mic will be at
the same level, and at the EXP.ST position the S mic
level will be +10 dB.
B M/S DECODE ON/OFF
This button switches M/S decoding on/off for two
adjacent odd-numbered/even-numbered input chan-
nels (or ST IN channel L/R). M/S decoding can be
switched on even for channels that are not assigned as a
stereo pair.
C Channel
This is the number and name of the input channel.
Hint
M/S is a stereo recording technique in which two micro-
phones are used; a uni-directional M (Middle) mic and a bi-
directional S (Side) mic. The M mic captures the main signal
and the S mic captures the directional signal, and the sum
(M+S) and difference (M-S) of the two signals (this procedure
is known as “decoding”) is recorded on the L and R channels
respectively.
INPUT VIEW function
This screen lists the mix parameters of the currently
selected input channel. In this screen you can also edit the
principal parameters and access other screens.
A Channel
This is the number of the input channel you are edit-
ing. If the input channel is paired (or if a ST IN channel
is selected), a heart symbol is displayed at the right.
You can click this symbol to enable/disable pairing for
the input channel.
B HA (Head Amp)
This area indicates the input port that is patched to the
input channel, the setting of the internal head amp
(PM5D-RH model only) or external head amp, and the
input level. In this screen you can also adjust the head
amp gain and switch phantom power (+48V) on/off.
C ATT (Attenuation)
This area shows the attenuation and ø (phase) settings.
You can also adjust the attenuation and switch the
phase from this screen.
