MixDream

Expansion

The Expansion In is an additional stereo input which is
routed through marked as two channels of the Master Insert/
Expansion/Out 2 DB25 socket (see page 11 for pin configura-
tions). Typically this stereo input would provide for linking with
another MixDream unit.

Master Insert/Insert On

Summed (stereo) signals are routed directly to the master
insert, but may be defeated through a toggle switch which acti-
vates a hard bypass relay (orange LED illuminated).

Master Insert/Return Signal LEDs

Return signal LEDs illuminate separately for the left and right
channel when there is a return signal from a processing unit.
These LEDs are activated at a signal level of -30 dB.

Master Insert/Send Level

With the Send Level control you can specify the signal level
sent to an effects processor. The range extends from -20dB to
+7dB, making possible an optimal adjustment and/or control
over such processing. If the insert is switched off, the Send Level
control can also be used to set the level for the Peak Limiter.

VERY IMPORTANT:

Pay special attention to the input peak levels

of an inserted device! The MixDream works on a 60 V power rail
and can produce very high output levels up to +28 dB!

Simply put, this kind of output is capable of zapping some
processors!
