Mute

The matrix crosspoint may be muted by clicking the Mute button. Muted cros-

create output signals.

of the input that may be used at the crosspoint: the ungated/recording ver-

sion, the conferencing version (on C-series or noise cancelled on SR-series),

and the sound reinforcement version. If the ungated/recording version is

selected, the channels page Ungated Type control selects which version of the

ungated channel is used.
The selection of which type of input processing to use in the matrix is per-

formed with the matrix crosspoint control as described in the next section.
To select the sound reinforcement version of the input processing, double click

the matrix crosspoint to adjust and select Gated and Snd Reinforcement. The

crosspoint cell shading will change to light blue to indicate that the sound rein-

forcement version of the crosspoint is selected. Typically when microphones

are sent to loudspeakers, the sound reinforcement version of the input pro-
