MASTER SECTION
Talkback Section
A built in microphone and talkback system allows the engineer to talk to
the artists in the studio or foldback monitors on stage. The Talk Level con-
trol adjusts the gain of the amplifier, be wary of feedback if the talkback
signal is routed to the local monitors via the AFL system or the proximity
of the studio monitors is such that they are able to feedback to the talkback
microphone.
The To Studio and To Aux 1 & 2 switches route the talkback signal to the
studio monitor outputs for artists monitor talkback or to the Auxes 1 & 2
for stage monitor talkback.
The non-latching TALK button enables the system and sends the signal from
the microphone to the selected destination.

Control Room Monitor selection switches
These determine the source signal for the CRM system. With all the
switches in the up position then the main L-R mix will be fed to the CRM
speakers unless a PFL of AFL switch is pressed in which case the signal from
the PFL or AFL switch will override.
The switches work on a priority method, with the 2 Track 2 switch having
priority over the others.
The DIG MASTER switch monitors the digital 17 & 18 inputs a separate
stereo digital input from the channel digital inputs and useful for monitoring
a stereo mix from your digital audio workstation.

Control Room Monitor Level Control
Adjusts the level of the signal to the CRM speakers from off (fully attenu-
ated) to unity gain.

MONO & ALT SPKRS switches
The MONO switch converts the stereo CRM signal to a mono signal, a sum
of the left and right channels is fed to both left & right CRM outputs as well
as the headphones output, and the main meters.
The Alternative speakers switch changes the CRM outputs from the main
CRM jack sockets to the ALT jack sockets so that the outputs can be
switched between two sets of speakers.
12
PHONES LEVEL control
Adjusts the level of signal from the CRM selection switches to the head-
phones jack sockets. There is 18dB of gain at the maximum setting.

PHONES jack sockets
Standard 1/4 inch and 3.5mm TRS jack sockets for stereo headphones.
Tip = Left.

DIG MASTER TO L-R switch
In addition to the digital inputs to the 16 mono channels there is a further
stereo digital input that can be routed to the main L-R mix bus with this
switch. It can be used to monitor a stereo output from your digital audio
workstation or audio application and listen to a final stereo mix from your
computer.
