Echo Control
This control adjusts the level of saturation
of the repeat and delay effects added to
the signal received from each channel
(as determined by Echo Control on each
individual channel).
11.
Repeat Control
This control allows users to adjust level
of the repeat effect, built into the KA920,
the final level of which is adjusted by the
Echo controls on individual channels.
Basically, it determines the degree of
attenuation between each repeat.
12.
Delay Control
This control allows users to adjust the delay time of the signal sent
to the Echo Mixing Bus. Working in conjunction with the Repeat
Control, users are able to apply a very interesting echoing effect
to vocals, if they wish.
13.
Reverb Control
This control allows users to add a reverb effect to their audio,
basically controlling the level of the processed audio sent from
the Echo mixing bus to the main mixing bus.

music.

3-band System EQ
Just like the EQ on each channel, the system EQ gives a shelving
boost or cut of 15 dB to high frequency (12 kHz), middle frequency
(2.5 kHz) and low frequency (80 Hz) sounds. Only the music inputs
are affected by the system equalizer.
16.
EFX In Control
This control adjusts the level of any signal fed through the EFX
input, sent to the main audio mix.
17.
Balance Control
This alternates the degree or level of audio that the left and right
side of the main mix should receive. By adjusting the balance
control, users affectively attenuate the left or right audio signals
according to the degree of their rotations.
18.
Input Selection
These buttons allow users to select from the various inputs with the
touch of a button. This ensures users to can simply switch from a
single input source to another, without the hassle of rewiring
19.
Music Volume Control
This control adjusts the volume of the music, allowing users to
attenuate or intensify the level accordingly.
20.
Level Meter
The KA920's level meter gives an accurate indication of when
audio levels of the main signal reach certain levels. To make the
maximum use of audio, set the various levels controls so that the
uppermost LED of the level meter flashes only occasionally, or
not at all.
21.
Key Control and Indicators
This area allows users to control the key of the music currently
selected (through use of the input select buttons), and does not
affect the vocal channels whatsoever. The key can be increased
or decreased in half-key increments by pressing the appropriate
buttons (the top button being increase, the lower button being
decrease). The center key is used to return the music back to its
original state.
When a key is increase by half a step, two of the included LEDs
will illuminate to indicate the key is half way between the two.
When the key is increased by another half step, only the single
LED will illuminate (and so on). The maximum a user can increase
or decrease the key by is 4 steps.

Video and Audio Inputs
These RCA jacks allow users to connect
video and audio inputs to the KA920. The
RCA jacks are color-coded, yellow being
video, white being the left audio channel and
red being the right audio channel.
