6. Betjeningsvejledning

6.1 Input Channels (1-12)

• GEVINST: Adjusts the input sensitivity for the connected microphone or line source. Set this so the PEAK LED flashes only occasionally during the loudest parts of the signal.
• LO CUT (Channels 1-4): Activates a 75 Hz high-pass filter to remove unwanted low-frequency rumble.
• EQ (HIGH, MID, LOW - Channels 1-4): These knobs adjust the treble (12 kHz), midrange (2.5 kHz), and bass (80 Hz) frequencies of the input signal. Use them to shape the tone of your instrument or vocal.
• AUX 1 PRE: Sends a portion of the channel signal to the AUX 1 output, independent of the channel fader. Typically used for monitor mixes.
• AUX 2 POST / FX: Sends a portion of the channel signal to the AUX 2 output and the internal effects processor, after the channel fader. Typically used for effects sends.
• PAN (Monokanaler) / BAL (Stereokanaler): Adjusts the position of the channel signal within the stereo field (left to right).
• PEAK LED: Lyser, når indgangssignalet er for højt, hvilket indikerer potentiel clipping. Reducer GAIN, hvis denne LED lyser ofte.
