PFL/AFL active is signalled by a red LED adjacent to the active switch, and by the yellow LED on
the Master Module VU meter panel. When one or more is selected a signal override will cut in to
replace the normal control room output with the dedicated PFL/AFL buss.
SOLO IN PLACE
When Solo In Place is selected in the Control Room Master Section, SIP replaces the PFL function of
Main Channel and Mix B signal paths, but will not affect the Groups, Auxiliary Masters and Stereo
Returns.
With SIP active on the Master, any channel that is solo’d will automatically cause all the other Main
Channel and Mix B channel signal paths to Mute, leaving only the solo’d channel signal present on
the main mix and/or group busses.
In practice – because SIP is post fade – more than one channel may be solo’d for comparative
reasons without disrupting individual levels when setting up a mix. For example, kick drum and
bass, and harmony vocals.
Note however that because SIP causes other signal paths to mute, their outputs to the recorder will be
cut – so it should not be used when actually recording during the mixdown or track laying process.
PFL TRIM
This rotary trim allows +/- 20dB of adjustment to be made to the level of the PFL/AFL signals sent to
the Control Room outputs via the PFL/AFL buss.
LEVEL
It is important to be able to operate the control room output level quickly and with ease. The large
control room rotary fader admirably fulfils these criteria by being highly visible and in reach of the
engineer. The Control Room outputs are found on the rear connector panel, on balanced stereo
quarter inch jack connections.
4.8 STUDIO MONITOR SECTION
ON
When activated the selected source signal/s will be routed to the console’s Studio outputs. These
outputs are found on the rear connector panel and are balanced stereo quarter inch jack connections.
LEVEL
Sets the level of signal sent to the Studio outputs.
STUDIO SOURCES
The Studio Section can derive the same five stereo sources as the Control Room:
• L + R This routes the main mix left and right outputs (post L+R fader) to the Studio
Monitor.
• Mix B This routes the Mix B left and right outputs (post Mix B master level) to the
Studio Monitor.
• 2TA This routes the 2TA left and right inputs to the Studio Monitor.
• 2TB This routes the 2TB left and right inputs to the Studio Monitor.
