The five choices are main output, AUX
output, IFB output, IFB program only
output, and mic/line direct:
• Main output is the same signal that
connects to the mixer section’s main
outputs.
• AUX output is the same signal that
connects to the mixer section’s AUX
outputs.
• IFB output is the final output from the
IFB section. It consists of both program
and interrupt audio. The program audio
will, depending on the configuration,
mute or “dim” when interrupt is active.
• IFB program only is provided by the IFB
section, and consists only of the pro-
gram audio signal; no interrupt audio
signals are present. No muting or “dim-
ming” of the program audio signal
takes place, even when interrupt is
active.
• Mic/line direct is a signal that is derived
from its associated mic/line input chan-
nel. The signal is the same as that
connected to the front panel bus as-
signment switches; post input preampli-
fier and low-cut filter. Configurable
output 1 has access to the signal from
mic/line input 1; configurable output 2
has access to the signal from mic/line
input 2; etc.
Using the five DIP switches associated
with each configurable output, simply
select the source or sources desired. Note
the word “sources”—more than one
source can be selected! As an example,
selecting switch 1, main out, and switch 2,
AUX out, will produce a combined version
of the main and AUX outputs. Selecting,
as another example, switch 1, main out,
for configurable output 1, will result in
another main output, viola, main output 5!
It would be the author’s choice to use the
configurable outputs in this way: Configur-
able output 1 set for a summed version of
the main and AUX outputs, configurable
output 2 set for IFB program only, and
configurable output 3 set for mic/line
direct. Terminated on a patch bay, these
three outputs could prove quite handy for
those “once-in-a-blue-moon” situations
that seem to occur about once a month!
