Solid State Logic Duality 82S6DUA20C - Manual (Page 40)

LFG – This stands for Low Frequency Gain and allows the gain of the contribution from the full bandwidth
channels to the subwoofer output to be adjusted. Like all the speaker calibration settings it must be set for each
set of speaker outputs (assuming Bass Management is in use).
Having lined up the six main speakers, select LFG. In LFG mode all speakers are initially muted, and the six
monitor cut buttons will light; uncut the left output, and with the bass management turned on (note that the
BMN selection in the BASS menu is duplicated in the CAL menu), adjust the LFG gain for a flat low end
response. Cut the left output, uncut the right output, and check this has a flat low end response. Repeat for all
channels. Depending on how well matched the monitors are, you may have to adjust the LFG gain slightly.
Note that when LFG is on, the LFE monitor output is always cut. This does not mute the actual subwoofer
output, only the LFE signals feeding it. This ensures that you are only measuring the contribution from the Bass
Management system.
SOLO / AFL / PFL
The console’s default solo mode is a destructive solo-in-place – soloing a channel cuts all other channels. The
alternative solo modes – AFL, PFL and Solo-in-front are selected via the soft key display on the monitor control
panel. Press the AFL/PFL button above the display to produce the following options:
AFL – Pressing a channel SOLO button routes the post channel pan signal, via the stereo AFL bus and the
AFL level control, to the currently selected monitor speakers.
PFL – Pressing a channel SOLO button routes a mono pre-fade signal, via the PFL bus and the PFL level
control, to the left and right Main monitor speakers. Optionally, PFL signals may be fed to the Mini
loudspeakers – see PFM in Monitor Options.
SIF – (Solo-In-Front) Pressing a channel SOLO button routes a mix of the AFL signal and the selected left and
right monitor sources to the monitor outputs. The SIF level control (select the SIF button to the right of the main
monitor pot and use the pot to set the level)) adjusts the balance between AFL signal and desk output.
ALT – Makes channel SOLO buttons intercancel with each other, so that soloing one channel will clear any
other solo selections.
MOM – This option makes all the channel SOLO buttons momentary.
Note that ALT and MOM do not affect the operation of centre section AFL and SOLO functions
Solo, AFL and PFL signals are all metered on the centre section SOLO meter. See Centre Section Metering
for more information.
