The exclamation point within an equilateral triangle is intended to alert the user to the presence of important operating and maintance (servicing) instructions in the literature accompanying the appliance. Read these instructions. Do not expose this apparatus to dripping or splashing and ensure that no objects filled with liquids, such as vases, ase placed on this apparatus. Do not block any of the ventilation openings. [. . . ] The level adjustment is from + 10dB to off with 0dB at the centre position of the rotary control. The MON controls give continuous adjustment of the pre- fader and pre- equaliser signal sent from the input channel to the MON busses. The level adjustment is from + 10dB to off with 0dB at the centre position of the rotary control. The AUX controls give continuous adjustment of the level sent from the input channel to the AUX busses. The level adjustment is from + 10dB to off with 0dB at the centre position of the rotary control. AUX1 and 2 can be configured globally for pre- or post-fader operation by pressing the PRE/POST switch on the appropriate A U X -rail in the master section. The PAN controls the channel placement within the master stereo- or group mix and has a constant power law. - 3dB at the centre position and 0dB or off at either extreme setting. The MUTE switch mutes the input channel at all points after the insert send, including all auxiliary sends. 8 The SOLO switch sends the input channel signal to the PFL / mono-and AFL / stereo busses. If the sw itch is engaged, the mon1/2 meters are automatically used for solo metering. The SIGNAL (-16dBu) / PEAK (+16dBu) display monitors the peak signal level of the pre fader input channel. The FADER gives continuous adjustment of the input channel level from + 10dB to off. The 1-2 switch connects the post fader channel signal to the group 1-2 busses via the pan control. The 3-4 switch connects the post fader channel signal to the group 3-4 busses via the pan control. The MAS switch connects the post fader channel signal to the master stereo bus via the pan control. 9 M IDAS VENICE STEREO INPUT CHANNEL 10 The Venice stereo input channel is equipped with an XLR input which can be used for M ic or Line level signals up to +22dBu. Two additional ¼ inch jack sockets, provide an input for Stereo- or Mono Line level signals up to +28dBu. The stereo channel features the same hi-value m icrophone pre-amp as the mono channel. Because the stereo input channel uses independet circuits for M ic and Stereo Line , it is possible to have all inputs connected at the s a m e t i m e , w i t h o u t i n t e r f erence. The +48V switch for each channel is positioned at the rear panel of the console. It connects +48 V phantom power to the XLR input connector. This is suitable for a condenser m icrophone or DI box. The M IC GAIN control gives continuous adjustment of the input amplifier gain from 0dB to + 60dB for the M ic input. The HI PASS switch connects the the 80Hz hi-pass-filter in the input channel signal path right after the m ic input amplifier. The LINE TRIM control gives continuous adjustment of the stereo input amplifier gain from 20dB to + 20dB for the Stereo Line input. The HI MID control gives continuous adjustment of boost and cut from + 15dB to - 15dB with a 0dB centre detent. The HI M ID equaliser acts on 3kHz with a 1. 4 octaves bandwith. The TREBLE control gives continuous adjustment of boost and cut from + 15dB to - 15dB with a 0dB centre detent. The treble equaliser acts on 12kHz with a traditional M IDAS shelving response. The BASS control gives continuous adjustment of boost and cut from + 15dB to - 15dB with a 0dB centre detent. The bass equaliser acts on 80Hz with a traditional M IDAS shelving response. The LO MID control gives continuous adjustment of boost and cut from + 15dB to - 15dB with a 0dB centre detent. -3dB at the centre position and 0dB or off at either extreme setting. The SOLO switch sends the group signal to the PFL / mono and AFL / stereo busses. If the switch is engaged the mon 1/2 meters are automatically used for solo metering The MAS switch connects the post fader group signals to the stereo master bus via the pan control. The SIGNAL (-16dBu) PEAK (+16dBu) display monitors the signal level of the group bus. The GROUP faders give continuous adjstment of the sub group output levels from +10dB to off. 15 The FX SEND control gives continuous adjustm e n t of the FX send output level from +10dB to off with 0dB at the centre position of the rotary control. The M O N controls give continuous adjustment of the pre- fader signal sent from the FXreturn channel to the MON busses. The level adjustment is from + 10dB to off with 0dB at the centre position of the rotary control. The 1-2 switch connects the post fader FX- return left signal to the group 1 bus and right signal to the group 2 bus.
