Controls and connections
EXTERNAL EFFECTS SENDS/RETURNS
37 AUX1 and AUX2: volume controls of the AUX1 and AUX2
➤
(monitor) outputs.
38
HIGH / MID / LOW. Three-band equalizer on the AUX
➤
(monitor) outputs.
HIGH: ±15dB@10kHz - MID: ±15dB@2.5 kHz - LOW: ±15dB@80Hz
39 AUX 1/2: unbalanced jack sockets of the AUX1 and AUX2
➤
outputs. The output levels are adjusted by the corresponding volume
controls (37). Each output can drive up to 10 parallel connected active
speaker enclosures or power amplifiers.
40
STEREO RET L/R: unbalanced jack sockets for the external stereo
➤
effects return.
41 STEREO RET: this potentiometer adjusts the volume of the external
➤
stereo effects return (40) on the master L/R outputs.
ACCESSORIES
42 PHONES: jack socket for the stereo headphones.
➤
The phones signal is the main stereo (L/R) or the pre-fade mix of all
those input channels where a PFL pushbutton is depressed.
43
PHONES: volume control of the stereo headphones output (42).
➤
44 CTRL ROOM L/R: jack socket for the stereo CONTROL ROOM.
➤
The signal is the same of the master L/R outputs, but the level is
indipendent from L/R master volume settings. This output is really useful
in many applications: in clubs, restaurants or theaters it may drive a
second group of active loudspeakers, with a level control that is
independent from that of the main system, thus creating a two-zone
audio system with independent volume adjustment, or to drive active
monitor loudspeakers to have a direct control of main output signal.
In studio applications, these outputs are used to drive the main monitor
speakers. The level of these outputs is adjusted by the CTR ROOM
control (45) and is independent from L/R master levels.
Each output can drive up to 10 parallel connected active speaker
enclosures or power amplifiers.
45 CTRL ROOM: volume control of the corresponding output (44)
➤
46 TAPE IN/OUT L/R: PIN sockets for the input/output analog interface
➤
of a stereo tape recorder. These sockets are active if the USB/TAPE
pushbutton (48) is set to TAPE.
Please note: TAPE IN L and R inputs are standard, line-level inputs and
thus they may be used to connect any line-level source (mixer outputs,
instruments, expanders, etc.).
47 USB: digital USB interface to connect a PC to be used as
➤
recorder/reproducer.
This interface is active if the USB/TAPE pushbutton (48) is set to USB.
48 USB/TAPE: pushbutton that selects the interface to be used
➤
for recording/reproduction
49
IN / OUT: input (IN) and output (OUT) volume control for the
➤
active recording/reproduction interface.
Please note: for more detailed informations about the connection
of a Personal Computer as a recording/reproduction device, please
refer to fig. 5A and 5B at page 54.
50 PHANTOM: main switch of the 'phantom' power supply on
➤
microphone inputs, with LED indicator.
MASTER L/R OUTPUTS
51 MASTER L/R: volume controls (faders) of the L (left) and R (right)
➤
master outputs.
52 12-segment LED indicators of master L/R output levels.
➤
If an input channel's PFL button is pressed, the PFL level is displayed
instead of L/R master level, and the PFL LED is on.
53 LEFT OUT and RIGHT OUT: balanced XLR3 male sockets of
➤
the L/R master outputs.
Each output can drive up to 10 parallel connected active speaker
enclosures or power amplifiers.
54 INS L and INS R: stereo jack INSERT sockets on L/R master outputs.
➤
Please note: the INSERT jack sockets may be used as unbalanced
outputs, using a standard mono jack plug. In this case the XLR outputs
will be disconnected. This way you can use jack or XLR sockets,
according to the connectors fitted to the available amplifiers or active
speakers or to the connection cables.
REAR PANEL
55 IEC60320 mains input socket with fuse socket.
➤
Use with the supplied mains cord only.
56
Mains ON/OFF switch.
➤
MCR16FXP and MCR12FXP POWERED MODELS
57 Output connectors for the internal power amplifiers. Each chan-
➤
nel is fitted with a 4 pole Speakon and a mono jack, wired in parallel.
