11 LINE INPUTS These 1 / 4 " jacks share circuitry (but not phantom power) with the mic preamps. Y ou can use these inputs for virtually any signal you’ll come across, from instrument levels as low as –50dB to operating levels of –10dBV to +4dBu, as there is 60dB of gain available via the TRIM knob .

12 SPLIT MONITORING W ith split monitoring, you use the first eight channels for your sound sources: vocal mics, drum mics, keyboard/synth outputs, guitar effects outputs, that sort of thing. From there, the channels manipulate the sound, but are not assigned to the output section. Instead, they’re patched from the channel’ s DIRECT OUT jacks t ...

17 CHANNEL STRIP DESCRIPTION A Clean Fade Faders ar e not rocket science — they operate by dragging a metal pin (the wiper) across a carbon-based strip (the track). It is possible for airborne crud to land on the track. Should that happen, you may hear scratchy noises or signal drop- outs as the wiper stumbles over the crud. Do all you can to kee ...

18 If you’re printing new tracks or bouncing ex- isting ones, you’ll also use the 1–2 and 3–4 switches, but not the L–R switch. Here, you don’t want the subgroups sent back into the MAIN MIX , but sent out, via the SUB OUTS jacks, to your multitrack inputs . However , if you’re printing tracks via the DIRECT OUT jacks , all the channe ...

21 W e recommend going into a ster eo reverb in mono and returning in ster eo. W e have found that on most “stereo” r everbs, the second input just ties up an extra aux send and adds nothing to the sound. There ar e exceptions, so feel fr ee to try it both ways. Should you choose to use two aux sends, use the “odd” AUX ( 1 , 3 or 5 ) to fee ...
