Vx Input Module
The input module is the main method by which input signals
are brought into the console. The Vx input module takes the
new features introduced with the GTx console and adds a
more flexible Aux send/assignment Section and extensive
VCA (Voltage Controlled Amplifier) functionality.
48V Phantom Power Switch
Applies 48 Volts DC to pins 2 & 3 of the microphone input
XLR jack for microphones requiring phantom power. The
XLR input is balanced and accepts high quality microphones,
DI boxes and line sources.
LINE Switch
Switches between the balanced female XLR microphone
Input connector and the balanced Line Input 1/4" TRS con-
nector.
PAD Switch
Introduces a -15 dB attenuation to the mic input signal, useful
when handling high-level signals.
GAIN Control
Adjusts input gain for proper signal level. Maximum gain is
70 dB.
Adjustable High Pass Filter w/LED
Reduces all low frequency content at a -12dB per octave rate
adjustable from 20 to 400 Hz (-3dB point). Yellow LED illu-
minates when switch is down.
Polarity Reverse Switch w/LED
Inverts the polarity of both the microphone and line inputs.
The red LED illuminates when switch is down.
INSERT Switch w/LED
Activates the send-return insertion point. The send is always
on. Audio from the return is switched into the channel when
the switch is pressed.
Four-Band Sweep Equalizer Controls
There are two knobs for each of the four bands. The inner
knob controls the boost or cut (15 dB); the outer knob con-
trols the center frequency. Center frequencies are indicated
around the outer knob.
PEAK/SHELVE HF Switch
Used for switching the high frequency EQ between the nor-
mal shelving setting to a peak setting.
SWITCHABLE Q on HI MID and LO
MID EQ
Q is switchable between .8 (switch up) and 1.8 (switch
down).
PEAK/SHELVE LF Switch
Used for switching the low frequency EQ between the nor-
mal shelving setting to a peak setting.
EQ IN Switch w/LED
Inserts the EQ section into the input channel (post insert, pre
fader). An associated green LED illuminates when the switch
is down.
