alternate outputs
features
The HPW has 2 alternate outputs located within the Master module. These outputs are
designed to allow the user to select the signal source that is being output. This feature
is especailly useful when sending audio for broadcast, recording, an attached room, public
spaces or assisted hearing devices. These outputs have full control dynamics, with expan-
sion, compression and limiting
source
M (Mono)
Assigns the mono, pre-fader signal to the alternate output.
L-R (Left- Right)
Assigns the L-R (Stereo), signal to the alternate ouput.
MTX 1 and 2
Assigns the Matrix Mix 1 (or Matrix Mix 2) signal to the alternate output. Pressing both
the MTX1 and MTX 2 assigns a Matrix stereo signal to the alternate output. MTX 1
assigns the signal to the left while MTX2 assigns the signal to the right. If only one MTX
signal is assigned, it is in mono.
output mono
This button sets the alternate output for mono operation
When button is in the “OUT” position, the signal is output as stereo.
When button is in the “IN” position, the signal is left and right summed.
ambience
This knob is used to add the stereo ambience signal (from the ambience input) to
the alternate output. The ambience signal is post-fader and is fully dependent on the
ambience controls. Adjusting or muting the ambience input signal will affect the alter-
nate output’s ambience.
See Ambience Input on page 46.
unity gain
The unity gain is used for applications where the user should not have access to the
master level controls, such as a feed for a nursery or narthex. This inset button disables
the master level control and sets the gain to unity (same as 0 on master control). A
small tool is required to activate the unity gain.
