Chapter 4 Operation Section

Synth/Mic Select Switch

As an option, the stereo input channels may be configured with stereo
patch points instead of the direct outputs. When configured with patch
points, the four jacks are the left synth input, right synth input, left
channel patch In/Out, and right channel patch In/Out (from top to
bottom).

Each patch In/Out provides a 1/4" T.R.S. (tip, ring, sleeve) jack. The
ring of the jack is the "patch out" signal, the tip is the "patch in" signal,
and the sleeve is the signal ground. Consult Speck Electronics or your
dealer regarding this option.

This switch has two designations. On the stereo channel this switch
selects the Sum or Split mode for the eight effects sends. If an optional
mike preamplifier is installed on the mono input channel, this switch
selects the Synth or Mic mode of operation.

The Sum/Split Switch is only available on a stereo input channel and is
identified with a black pushbutton immediately above the four 1/4"
channel jacks. The Synth/Mic Switch and its associated XL mike input
connector is only available on a mono input channel and is identified
with a grey pushbutton immediately above the four 1/4" jacks.

The absence of any switch in this position indicates a standard mono
input channel without a microphone preamp installed.

Each stereo channel incorporates an effects Sum/Split switch. When
this switch is in the Sum (up) position, the source for effects sends 1 thru
8 is the algebraic sum of the left and right synth signals, post (after) the
input level control. When the Sum/Split switch is in the Split (down)
position, the source for effects sends 1 thru 4 is the left synth signal, and
the source for effects sends 5 thru 8 is the right synth signal.

On a mono input channel, this switch appears only when the channel is
outfitted with an optional microphone preamp (indicated by a standard
XL type connector). This switch selects between the signal connected at
the synth input or the optional transformer mike inputs.

While the synth and microphone inputs can be simultaneously
connected, only one is active at any given moment as determined by the
position of the Synth/Mic switch. Up for Synth, down for Mic.
