left, center, right, and surround. Again,
two 4-channel sources are connected,
along with one set of amplified loudspeak-
ers. The left and center channels are
supported by Model 58 unit 1, while the
right and surround channels are supported
by Model 58 unit 2. A processor device is
connected to one of the insert sections on
both Model 58 units. Two input, two insert,
and two output wiring harnesses are
utilized for audio interconnection.
The Model 59 Control Console is con-
nected to Model 58 unit 1, and both Model
58s are interconnected using the ribbon
cable bus assembly. AC mains power
must be connected to both Model 58 units.
Many features are available for future use,
including inputs 3 and 4, the second insert
section, the meter outputs, and the remote
control functions.
Inserts
The Model 58 insert sections are appli-
cable for far more than the usual console
inserts functions. Under control of the
Model 59 Control Console, each insert
channel can independently function in
one of four modes: mute normal signal
flow, maintain the normal signal flow,
replace the normal signal with the return
signal, or sum (combine) the return signal
with the normal signal. (Note that in all
cases the insert send signal will remain
active.) With this flexibility the inserts can
be used for a variety of insert, routing, and
mixing functions.
Using the insert returns, in conjunction
with contact input 2, allows a console’s
AFL/solo system to be directly integrated.
