Rane FLM 82 - Manual (Page 2)

FRONT PANEL DESCRIPTION
1. INPUT LEVEL CONTROLS. Each of the four input channels has one pair
of concentric LEVEL controls. These controls allow the user to set the
amount of level from each pair of input channels (A and B) to be delivered
to the respective mix buses. The inner knob controls Channel A, the outer
Channel B. These set the input mix for both the FLEX BUS OUTs and the
MASTER A and B Outputs on the rear of the unit.
2. AUX SEND LEVEL CONTROLS. These concentric level pots adjust the
Aux mix on both the FLEX BUS OUT as well as the levels to the AUX
LOOP A and B jacks on the rear panel. The inner knob adjust Channel A,
the outer Channel B. As mentioned elsewhere in this manual, the AUX
SENDS may be either PRE or POST fade (before or after the input LEVEL
controls). This determination is made internally based on the switch posi-
tions located on the printed circuit board beneath the top cover.
3. MASTER A AND B LEVEL CONTROLS. Another set of concentric
controls, the inner knob adjusts the MASTER OUTPUT A level on the rear
panel, the outer sets the MASTER OUTPUT B level. These controls have no
effect on the FLEX BUS OUT levels.
4. POWER INDICATOR. This is a yellow light emitting diode. The light,
when present, is created by the forward bias condition of the gallium
arsenide junction encapsulated within the yellow plastic, which serves two
purposes: one, to act as a lens for the light and the other to protect the
delicate solid state chip within. Or, if you prefer, if this light is lit the
power’s on.
