Mono Input Channel 8241 7-1
Revision R2005-2 R-Type
: 0RQR#,QSXW#&KDQQHO#;574
The mono input channel is intended for microphone level sources and has controls
for gain, 20dB pad, phase-change, phantom power, ON/OFF and PFL. A Line-up
tone can be injected into the input amplifier and the direct output may be selected to
come from the MIC amplifier or pre or post the channel fader.
Routing switches to all the 16 dual groups (32 busses) are provided. (In mono mode
there is one switch for each pair of sends.) Sends 1A/B to 8A/B may be switched
between stereo (level on upper control, pan below) or dual mono (A level on upper
control and B level below) on a bus by bus basis. Sends 9A/B to 16A/B are dual
mono busses, which can be selected to receive module pan information in two
groups 9A/B to 12A/B and 13A/B to 16A/B, hence providing a traditional sub group
scenario for FoH use. It is also possible to route directly to matrices 13 to 16 which
then can be enabled to receive module pan information.
In addition, the module has access to a dedicated stereo bus and also a L-C-R bus.
L-C-R can be used either as L-R panning with unpanned centre with level control or
as full L-C-R panning.
PFL can be changed globally to function as AFL with pan information or can be used
in the more traditional mono pre fader listen mode.
The module also includes a fully parametric 4-band equalizer with controls for each
band of ±18dB cut and boost, variable frequency and variable ‘Q’. The module also
contains a variable frequency high-pass filter which is switched independently from the
equalizer.
All audio inputs and outputs are electronically balanced.
