Input & Pan Parameters
Input and pan parameters are available for all sources. The exact parameters depend on the format of the
source (mono or stereo), and how it is connected (via a mic preamp or line/digital).
Ø
To access input and pan parameters, press an
ACCESS
key followed by
INP
on the Central Module.
When adjusting input gain, use the input meter (on DisplayDock) to help set a good input level. If the meter
(or signal present indicator on the fader strip) turns red repeatedly, then the input level is overloading and
you should reduce the Mic gain (or channel Gain) value.
MIC Sources
Surface Controls
DisplayDock
For a mono MIC source, you can adjust input parameters in the analog domain (before the A-D converter) AND
in the digital domain (after the converter).
The analog (mic preamp) section includes:
·
MIC
- mic preamp gain from . See also
·
48V
- 48V phantom power.
·
PAD
- 20dB PAD (reduces the mic gain by 20dB). When the PAD is active, the
MIC
gain value
updates accordingly.
·
RUMBLE
- a high pass ‘rumble’ filter to roll-off subsonic frequencies.
In the digital domain, you can also adjust:
·
PHASE
- phase reverse.
·
GAIN
- channel gain from -30dB to +18dB.
·
PAN
- left/right panning onto the stereo buses. (This parameter is not shown on DisplayDock).
MIC
gain, channel
GAIN
and
PAN
can also be adjusted from the fader strip rotary control (as described
).
HYBRID Sources
For a mono HYBRID source, only the digital domain parameters apply and so you can adjust
PHASE
reverse,
channel
GAIN
and left/right
PAN
.
