signal of the selected input (This signal will be pre- or post-fader depending on the input’s setting

in Setup Menu option INPUTS > Input to ISO Routing). The selected input’s Activity LED flashes

yellow when the input’s PFL is engaged. Additionally, the PFL number will appear in the lower right

Select Switch are used together to access inputs 4, 5, and 6 PFL or Input Settings Screens. (

Toggle Mode”, page 25

nal recorder.
