MIX INPUTS

Each mix has the inputs shown here,

with a few variations depending on the

mix. To hear the input in the mix, just

bring up its fader.

1. Each mix can include the signal from

the UltraLite-mk5’s two front-panel

mic/line/inst

inputs.

2. These are the six

line inputs

on the

rear panel of the UltraLite-mk5. All

mixes include these channels.

3. To hear the

RCA S/PDIF input

, bring

up this fader. All mixes include the

S/PDIF channel.

4. These inputs represent the

UltraLite-mk5’s

optical input

channels. If

ADAT

is chosen as the

optical format (item #5 on page 34),

then you’ll see eight channels of

ADAT input at 1x sample rates (or

four channels at 2x rates). If

TOSLink

is chosen as the optical format,

you’ll seen a single stereo channel

strip instead of the eight shown

here. All mixes include the optical

channels.

5. This channel is the

Reverb mix

(item

#2 on page 36). When you bring up

this fader, you’ll hear the entire

reverb mix. To adjust the amount of

reverb on individual signals, go to

the Reverb mix tab and make the

individual adjustments there. All

mixes include the Reverb channel,

except the Reverb mix itself.

6. On the

Main 1-2

channel (Computer

USB), you’ll hear the audio you’re

playing back from your host audio

software, assigned to the

UltraLite-mk5’s Main 1-2 outputs.

This channel lets you include

computer audio in your mix. This

channel is available in all mixes,

except the

Reverb

and

Main 1-2

mixes.

NOTE: if you want the headphone

output to mirror the main outs, go to

the

Phones 1-2

mix and bring up the

Main1-2

fader and mute the

Phones 1-2

channel.

7. This

Computer USB

channel changes,

depending on which mix you are

viewing. It represents any computer

audio being sent to the mix’s output

pair from host audio software (over

USB). In this example, we are

viewing the

Line 5-6 mix

, so this

channel represents signal being sent

to line outputs 5-6 from host audio

software over USB. By default, this

fader is set to full scale so that you’ll

always hear any computer audio

being sent to the mix’s output.

8. This is the master fader for the mix

(item #4 on page 36).
