Mono
Inputs
8 mono channels with Mic [XLR] & Line [TRS] inputs.
Line input overrides the XLR input. Individual +48V phantom power
switches are provided. New padless two-stage preamp with smooth
gain law. Line input goes to second stage for better matching
and performance. Switched 100Hz high pass filter. Insert point.
4 band EQ. 4 aux mixes. Mute with LED. PFL button with LED [functions
as peak indicator]. 100mm fader.

4
Band EQ
Shelving
LF [60Hz], and HF [12kHz]. Fixed LM [250Hz], and swept HM [300Hz
- 6kHz]. The fixed 250Hz control has been carefully selected to
provide reduction of ‘muddy’ sounds and enhance ‘warmth’.

Dual
Stereo Channels
Two
stereo channels with two unbalanced stereo inputs on each. One
is RCA one is TRS jack. Independent gain controls provide source
mixing in the channel strip. The top inputs [RCA] can be switched
direct to L&R instead of the channel strip providing extra
returns. Two band shelving EQ. 4 aux mixes. Stereo balance, mute
with LED, PFL with LED, and 100mm fader as mono channels.

4
Auxiliary Sends
From all channels: 2 pre-fade for
foldback mixes - these have 100mm fader masters, mute switch with
LED, AFL with LED, and TRS outputs [can be routed internally to
output section]. 1 post-fade aux mix for FX - this feeds the internal
FX and has a TRS jack output for external FX. 1 post-fade aux
mix to TRS jack output is provided for external FX or special
feeds.

Outputs
Main
stereo mix output has 100mm fader control & mute with LED.
TRS jack outputs. Mono sum output with level control with switch
for subwoofer mode to TRS jack. Record output [RCA] analogue +
SPDIF switchable pre/post fader. Twin 12 segment LED bar meter
shows program [or PFL /AFL]. Insert points on TRS jack for external
processing. Output EQ and routing to internal amplifiers / external
systems is provided.

Output
EQ
4 band semi-parametric
EQ is provided in the output section, this affects the TRS slave
outputs, and the internal constant power amplifiers. This offers
more control than graphic equalisers for precise management of
speakers, especially foldback / monitors. Source selector allows
output EQ section to be used on Left / right, L&R sum / foldback1,
or foldback1 / foldback2.

Constant
Power Amplifiers
1kW
i.e. 2 x 500W RMS peak power professional class AB power amplifiers
built in. Unique ALLEN&HEATH design gives full output into
4 OR 8 ohms [rear switch selector]. Output is to locking Speakon™
connectors. Thermal management twin fan system. Full protection
- input limiter to prevent clipping, short circuit protection,
current limit and DC fault sensing. LED indication of: signal
presence, peak warning, speaker protect and temperature. AB amp
input TRS break-jacks [normalised to output section / slave out
jacks] allow independent use of the power amplifiers if desired.
Standby mode switch puts amplifier into protect with speakers
isolated.

Digital
FX
16 program digital
FX processor provides reverbs, delays, chorus and others, inc
combined. This FX module takes its feed from the post-fade FX
aux on the mono & stereo channels. The output of the FX module
is controlled by a 100mm fader with mute & PFL and is routed
to the stereo mix and FB1&2 with post fade level controls.
At this point, 2 TRS inputs with level control provide a way of
combining external FX with the internal unit. Internal FX unit
can be switched off to use external only if preferred. A footswitch
TRS jack is provided to mute the FX channel.

Master
Section
Background music BGM mode - plays 2 track input into the main
mix post fader, allows user to pull down fader (whilst patching,
taking a break, or during walk-in) and leave music playing through
the amplifiers / speakers. 2 track input [RCA] with level control
to L&R - feeds headphone monitor selector [checking recording].
Twin, 3 colour 12 segment LED meter displays active monitor source.
Large LED indicates PFL / AFL active - signal overrides L&R
/ 2TRK monitor source selection. Standby switch uses relays to
disconnect the speakers. 2 track output [RCA] analogue + SPDIF
allows direct to digital recording. Switchable pre / post master
L&R fader. Mono sum out with level [TRS] - mode switch to
provide sub feed with 100Hz low pass filter. Phones out [TRS]
with level.
