Channel Sends

Each channel has two stereo and four mono sends that can be used for a number of

different purposes: headphone feeds, FX sends, etc. The stereo cues can even be used

to provide an additional line input to the mix.

Cue Stereo

Normally, the stereo cue sources a pre channel fader signal, which routes to the console’s

Cue A bus. This in turn can be picked up in the centre section and used as a foldback

source (see Cue/FX Master Controls). Press and hold down the SRC SEL button (at the

base of the Channel Sends section) then press the stereo cue gain pot to toggle the source

through post fader channel feed (POST), channel direct output (CHOP) or the alternative

channel input (ALT), as indicated by the LEDs adjacent to the stereo cue gain pot. The ALT

selection is defined as whichever input is not assigned to the main channel path (when

SPLIT mode is not active), and allows the stereo cue to be used as an additional input.

Likewise, select the stereo cue output to Cue B by holding down the SET EFX/ CUE B

button then pressing the stereo cue gain pot; this toggles the selection through Cue B, EFX

and Cue A (off).

Master controls for the Cue A and B busses can be found in the centre section.

Pan your mono source across the stereo cue bus outputs with the LR pan control. The

stereo cue send is turned on/off by means of a push-push switch mounted on the send level

control.

FX Sends

The four mono FX Sends are normally sourced post channel fader. They may, however, be sourced from the

channel output (CHOP) by pressing and holding down the SRC SEL button (at the base of the Channel Sends

section) then pressing the required FX gain pot to toggle the selection on/off.

Each FX level pot is fitted with a push-push on/off switch; ‘on’ is indicated by a LED beside the pot. Master controls

for each FX bus can be found in the centre section.

Selecting an FX output to the EFX system (press and hold the SET EFX/ CUE B button then press the required FX

or Cue Stereo gain pot) allows a single send to be isolated from its associated bus and to be used as source for

either the Track Busses (selected in the centre section), or the channel output — CHOP (selected locally or in the

centre section). This enables additional independent effects send or headphone mixes to be easily generated.

Logic interlocks prevent feedback paths by disallowing the EFX function on a send sourced from the channel output

if EFX to channel output is active.

See Cue/FX Master Controls for more on EFX routing.
