The phase can usually be corrected by means of the phase switch on any
external microphone pre-amplifier, a feature of the work station software, or, in
the event that no other solution is available, the user can make a TRS to TRS
cable with a deliberate phase reversal and plug it into the channel pre-fade
insertion of the offending channel.

Individual output level controls are provided for the left + right and auxiliary
outputs and, in the event that linear faders might create a more practical
solution to a work station environment, a range of remote control fader options
are available.

5. Remote fader operation.

A range of remote fader configurations is available, in the following
permutations: -

a. Tabletop sloping case or flat panel configuration.
b. 8, 16 or 24 channel configuration.
c. Penny and Giles 3000 series, 8000 series or Alps 100mm stroke faders
d. Various cable lengths

In every case the will be a channel fader complete with solo and mute
illuminated switches and a stereo output fader pair. The channel faders have
10dB level “in hand” while the output faders have 0dB. Channel fader knobs
are white and the output fader knobs are red.

The remote fader cable assembly plugs into the 56 pin Elco socket and the
action of plugging in the cable completes a control loop inside the GTM that
disables all the rotary faders and routes the signals to the remote faders. Buffer
amplifiers are either side of the faders and long cable runs are practical. The
remote fader panels and cables are a custom item and made to suit the
individual studio configuration. Please contact us with your requirements and
we will quote for a custom fader set up.

In operation the fader panel can be close to the work station and the GTM
mounted in a rack with the rest of the studio audio equipment. This can
simplify studio wiring but the GTM should always be positioned so that the
user can see the VU and phase meters. When any solo or cut buttons are
pressed on the remote panels the functions are mirrored on the switches on the
front of the GTM. Pressing a solo switch on the remote panel will also light all
the mute lamps in the un-solo’d channels on the GTM front panel.
