Outputs - Direct Channel Outs (CH OP), Post Fader
Each Mono channel of the X-Panda has a Direct Output. The
Channel Direct Outputs (CH OP) are primarily used to feed the
inputs of your chosen recorder or DAW. On the rear panel connection panel of X-
Panda they are labelled “CHAN OUT 9-16 (1-8)”.
The operator has a choice of whether the output Signal is sourced Pre or Post fader.
By default the output is Pre fader / Post Input Trim but by selecting “POST” the
Output level will be sourced after, and thus controlled by, the Channel Fader. This is
useful if in classic British audio engineering style one wishes to “ride” the signal level
to tape or in this modern day and age, the DAW.
Stereo Cue – Post Fader, ALT source
This is the channel send to the Stereo CUE Bus. There are
separate controls for both Level and Pan, and this is normally
used as a Cue audio feed for the recording artist. But this is just
the beginning!
Selecting the POST switch will source the Stereo Cue post the
channel fader.
A very useful feature of the X-Panda mono channels is that the CUE ST can source
the ALT channel input (even if it has not been selected as the main channel input.) To
achieve this simply engage the “ALT” switch. This is useful when recording as an
entirely independent Cue mix can be built up.
Alternatively if the requirement is for a large analogue summing system (when used
in conjunction with an X-Desk), an additional 8 channels could be connected to the
ALT input, sourced on the CUE with independent Level and Pan, and reassigned to
the MIX bus via the CUE to MIX button on the Master section of an X-Desk.
Note: Selecting ALT (on the CUE send) when it is sourced as the Channel Input will
result in no change to the Cue source.
FX Sends 1&2 and Stereo Returns (ST RET)
Each Mono Channel on the X-Panda has two mono FX sends
(FX1 and FX2)
The Send is permanently ON but rotating it fully counter
clockwise will result in no signal being sent onto the FX bus.
Normally the FX sends are sourced Post Fader but they can be globally switched for
the whole X-Panda by the PRE switches on the last Stereo Channel. (See next
section)
