Solid State Logic Duality 82S6DUA20C - Manual (Page 20)

Insert
The INS IN button routes the channel signal via balanced insert send and return points,
available on the rear of the console (D-connectors). The insert defaults to the channel
input (post the input trim); POST cycles the insert position through two alternative
locations in the processing path: post EQ or post Dynamics; the centre section master
routing panel provides individual INS POST EQ and INS POST DYN buttons. When the
insert is active, the INSERT box on the channel TFT is highlighted.
Signal processing order is graphically displayed on the channel TFT screen
Channel Output (CHOP)
The Channel Output (D-connector) is normally used to feed the DAW input. The default
signal is a post channel fader feed, but the SRC SEL button can be used to select
alternative sources: pre channel fader (pre the SPLIT point – see below), the channel
input (also pre the SPLIT point), or an active EFX send (see below). Each selection is
graphically displayed on the channel TFT screen (see Channel Metering for more
information). When either the channel input or pre fader source is selected, the SPLIT
button activates the Split Monitoring function and routes the DAW return into the channel
signal path post the split point (see below).
Use the associated AFL button to monitor the channel output source as you toggle
through the options with the SRC SEL button. The central routing panel has single button
selection of the four channel output sources: INPUT, PRE FADE, POST FADE, EFX.
Signal Processor Routing
By now you will have realised that Duality features extremely flexible signal processor routing within each
channel. In addition, the channel output (CHOP) can be sourced from a number of different points in the
channel. Furthermore, the SPLIT function effectively offers two signal paths in one channel strip. A useful
graphic display on the channel bay TFT (see Channel Metering) makes clear, at any time, the current
arrangement for any channel.
