) AUX send controls (1, 2 & 3)

The MC-series mixing consoles have three indepen­
dent AUX busses which are fed by the corresponding
AUX controls on the input channels. Each AUX control
determines the level of the signal sent from that chan­

nel to the correspondingly numbered AUX mixing buss,

which in turn feeds the correspondingly numbered AUX
SEND control and AUX SEND jack on the console's

rear panel. The AUX controls can be used to determine

the amount of signal from the corresponding input
channel sent to external effect devices or power amps
fed by the AUX SEND jacks.
• AUX 1 is factory pre-wired for pre-EQ/pre-fader opera­

tion, so the AUX 1 signal is not affected by the setting
of the channel EQ controls' or fader. An internal
jumper allows the AUX 1 control to be rewired for post-

EQ/post-fader operation.

• AUX 2 and AUX 3 are factory/ pre-wired for post-EQ/

post-fader operation, so the AUX 2 and AUX 3 signals

are affected by the setting of the channel EQ controls
and fader. Internal jumpers allow the AUX 1 control to

be rewired for pre-EQ/pre-fader operation.

• An internal post-EQ jumper allows the AUX controls to

be further re-confIgured for post-EQ/pre-fader opera­

tion.

) PAN pot

The PAN pot determines the position in the stereo

sound field at which the sound from that channel is
heard. When it is rotated fully counterclockwise, the
channel signal will be delivered from the left stereo out­
put only, and will be heard at the far left of the sound
field. If the PAN pot is turned fully clockwise, the sound
from that channel will appear at the far right of the ste­

reo sound field. If the PAN pot is set at its center posi­

tion, the channel signal will be sent equally to both the

left and right channels, causing the sound to appear at

the center of the sound field. Intermediate PAN pot set­
tings cause the sound to be heard at the corresponding

position.

® Channel CUE switch

When the CUE switch is pressed, the pre-EQ/pre-fader
signal from that channel is fed to the PHONES output
via the CUE/PHONES level control. The channel cue
signal will be added to any other active cue signal. If
you want to monitor only the signal from a single chan­
nel, make sure all other CUE switches are turned OFF.
• The CUE buss is factory-wired to be fed with a pre-EQ

signal. This can be changed by internal jumpers to be
post-EQ.

Channel ON switch

The ON switch on each channel switches the channel
signal to the L and R stereo busses, the MIX outputs,
the three AUX send busses. When ON (depressed), the
channel signal will be sent to all these busses. When

OFF, the channel’s signal will be silenced. It is therefore
possible to use this switch as a mute switch to avoid
unwanted microphone overspill in quiet passages, for
example.

(D Channel fader

This is the main level control for each input channel. It
determines the level of the signal sent from the corre­
sponding input channel to the master stereo buss. The
settings of the input channel faders determine the “mix”
or balance of sound levels between the instruments or
other sources connected to the inputs.
