Matrix Send and Master Out Section

Matrix Master Out Section
The matrix master out section is located to the right of the matrix send section. The matrix master out
section determines where the signals received at the matrix send section will finally be output, with a
comprehensive complement of [INSERT], [RECALL SAFE], and other functions.
Easiest to conceive of as an extension of the matrix send section, the matrix master out section has
corresponding independent stereo matrices (ST MATRIX 1 ~ 4) and mono matrices (MATRIX 1 ~ 8).
Since the only function of this section is to control output of the signals from each matrix bus its control
complement is quite simple, with no visible difference between the stereo and mono matrices (the L and R
channels of stereo matrices are controlled simultaneously). The only difference is the MONO MODE
indicator provided on the stereo matrices (ST MATRIX 1 ~ 4). The MONO MODE indicator lights when
the corresponding stereo matrix is being used as a mono matrix.
Engaging the matrix [ON] switch activates the corresponding matrix output (output from that matrix is
disable when the [ON] switch is disengaged). For active matrix outputs the [MASTER] control determines
the level of the signal that will appear at the corresponding rear-panel MATRIX OUT connector. External
processing gear connected to the MATRIX INSERT (MONO/ST) connectors is inserted into the matrix
signal when the [INSERT] switch is engaged. The [RECALL SAFE] and [CUE] switches function in
exactly the same way as those on the master out section (page 29).
