a ENTER key

Use this key to confirm entries

and to answer “yes” to questions (the cursor keys are
usually used to cancel or answer “no”).

Monitoring section

This section is used to control what is heard from the
control room and the studio monitoring systems.
Since many of the choices here are “soft” choices
(that is, determined by the software), the full expla-
nation of these keys and indicators is provided in a
separate section (“Monitoring” on page 73).

b Meters

These meters show the level of the

currently-monitored signal.

c SOLO control and indicator

When the

indicator is lit, soloing is enabled and a channel has
been selected for soloing. The level of the soloed sig-
nal is controlled by this knob.

d PHONES control

This control regulates the

level of the signal sent to the phones outputs.

e Monitor selection keys

These keys are

used to select the signal sent to the control room
monitor outputs (and the phones outputs).

The

STEREO

key routes the stereo output signal to

the monitor outputs. The

SEL 1

,

SEL 2

and

SEL 3

keys route the signals selected in the monitor screen
to the monitor outputs.

f Talkback microphone

This integral

microphone can be used for studio talkback or slate
output.

g DIM key and indicator

This “smart” key

works in the same way as the

STUDIO

key above.

When on, the control room outputs are attenuated
(the amount is set using the monitor screen).

h MONO

This outputs the selected signal in

mono to the control room monitors and phones.

i STUDIO key and indicator

This “smart”

key latches on when pushed and released within a
second, and is switched off by pushing it again in the
same way. If pushed and held down for more than a
second it is non-latching, that is, it turns off when
released.

When on, the control room outputs are attenuated,
and the talkback microphone signal is routed to the
studio outputs.

j CR volume control

This control adjusts

the level of the signal selected with the selection keys
and sent to the control room outputs and

PHONES

outputs.

k TO SLATE key and indicator

This

“smart” key works in the same way as the

STUDIO

key above.

When on, the control room outputs are attenuated
and the talkback microphone signal is routed to the
eight output busses, the stereo buss and the six aux
busses.

l T/B volume control

This control adjusts

the level of the signal from the talkback microphone,
fed to the selected outputs (slate or studio).
