ing mix-down using the long-throw channel fader. This

frees the Monitor path to serve as an extra input. Note

that the equalisation section and auxiliary sends are

both split to serve both signal paths.

8. DIRECT

The DIRECT switch replaces the feed to the tape send

jack socket (which is normalled to the Group output)

with the channel post-fade signal. This allows direct re-

cording to a tape track from the channel, under the

control of the main channel fader. Note that the Tape

Send is factory-set to give a -10dBV output, even

though the Group output socket is +4dBu. To change

the Tape Send level to +4dBu see Selectable Options

HF/LF EQUALISER
The Equaliser(EQ) is configured as two separate sec-

tions, to allow both the Channel and Monitor paths to

be provided with a useful range of equalisation simulta-

neously. The HF/LF EQ is usually in the Channel path,

unless the EQ to MNTR switch (10) is pressed. HF and

LF are shelving controls, providing a 15dB boost or

cut.
