There are 3 back
illuminated indicators
showing the selected input
to the SF path. This can be
changed between Mic/Line
and Tape using the FLIP
switch.
LF Source allows the source
for the SF path to be taken
from the LF path. This could
be used during mixdown to
send the LF signal through
the SF path up to the
routing matrix where the
group outputs can be used
as additional effect sends.
Normally this signal is
derived after the long fader
(POST LF) but it can be
made PRE LF by changing
an internal link on the circuit
board.
The source switching
occurs before the equaliser
so it is possible to equalise
the SF signal which has
been taken from the LF path
by switching either one or
both equaliser sections into
the SF path. (If this is done
then the equaliser section is
no longer available in the LF
path).
The SF PAN control allows
panning across the group
outputs when pan is
selected on the routing
section of the strip.
MIX allows the SF signal to
be routed to the stereo mix
bus and allows the SF path
to be used as an additional
input during mixdown.
The short fader is designed
for use with 10dB of gain
in hand allowing the signal
to be boosted or reduced in
level if required.
The SOLO switch allows
the channel to be
auditioned through the AFL/
PFL or Solo in Place
facilities.
CUT allows the SF signal
path to be muted.
1 MIC/TAPE. These back
lit indicators show
whether the MIC/LINE
or the TAPE input is
selected to the SF path.
Only one will be
illuminated and it can be
changed by using the
FLIP switch.
2 SOURCE selects the
post fade LF signal as
the input to the SF
signal path, over-riding
the MIC or TAPE
selection from the Flip
switch. By altering a link
on the circuit board this
signal can be made pre
fade.The LF legend will
illuminate when the
switch is pressed and
the MIC/TAPE indicator
will blank.

across odd and even
groups.
4 MIX routes the SF signal
to the stereo mix bus. It
is good practice to
unroute any channels
which are not needed.
This will reduce mix
amp noise.
5 This is the SHORT
FADER which controls
the level of the SF signal.
6 SOLO allows the SF
signal to be heard on the
monitors and viewed on
the master meters. If
Solo In Place is selected
it will replace the
console output.
7 CUT allows the SF
signal path to be muted.
This may help to reduce
noise in a mix if a
channel is not in use for
a period of time.
