Cue/FX Send Master Controls

Each channel is fitted with two Cue Stereo and four mono FX sends for use as foldback,

feeds to effects devices, etc. The Cue Stereo outputs from each channel may be routed

to one of two busses – Stereo Cue A or Stereo Cue B. FX 1-4 feed their respective

busses.

The master output level controls for these busses (in the top right of the centre section –

see left) all have 10dB of gain when turned fully clockwise, and an indent at the ‘12

o’clock’ position, which corresponds to 0dB gain.

An AFL button is provided for each output. The AFL signal is intelligently assigned to left

and right AFL busses. Selecting AFL on a single FX output will route signal to both left

and right AFL busses. Selecting AFL on odd and even numbered FX outputs will route

the odd numbered output to the left AFL bus and the even numbered output to the right

AFL bus.

The two Cue Stereo and four mono FX outputs are available to external devices via a

D-connector on the centre section connector panel. The Cue outputs are also available

as sources to the Foldback outputs (see below).

A dedicated set of LCD bargraphs just above the master controls provides metering of

the Stereo Cue A, Stereo Cue B and FX busses (see Centre Section Metering).

Foldback and Headphone Outputs

The console provides three stereo outputs – Foldback A and B, intended for use in the

studio for headphones or LS playback, plus a stereo headphone feed for control room

use; a socket for this is provided beneath the buffer rail in the centre section. The

foldback outputs feed 6.35mm jacks on the centre section connector panel, from where

they may be connected to amplifier inputs.

The master controls for Foldback A and B are provided by two identical sections fitted

just below the main output compressor (see left – only Foldback B shown).

Each output has a dedicated LEVEL control, CUT, AFL, and six source selector buttons

with associated level controls:

The MIX 1 pot controls the contribution of Main stereo mix bus A (MIX A) and/or the

output of Cue Stereo A (CUE A), to the foldback mix.

The MIX 2 pot controls the contribution of the stereo downmix signal (ST MIX) and/or the

output of Cue Stereo B (CUE B), to the foldback mix.

In addition, the stereo Main monitor output (ST MON) and the output of External Source Selector B (EXT B)

may be selected as sources.

Dedicated F/B A and F/B B talkback buttons are used to add talkback to the foldback outputs.

HF and LF shelving equalisers are provided on the outputs.
