will decrease to around 20dB. Microphone signal is send to the
sound card depending on the selection of the channel select

microphone signal with Master, you must select on or talkover.
If you want to have the microphone signal available on the
software but don’t mix it with Master you must select off.

sensitivity for the Jog Wheel.
NOTE: The touch sensitivity of the jog wheel can be adjusted
to fit the needs and feel of different users. When adjusting the
sensitivity, be conscious of extreme settings which may affect
your performance. Setting the sensitivity too high would
engage the touch sensitivity with the hand just above the
wheel. Setting the sensitivity too low may not engage the touch
even while pressing firmly on the wheel.

crossfader. Rotate clockwise to shorten fade time with sharper
cut off at either end. Rotate anti-clockwise to lengthen fade to
gradually mix across fader and 50/50 mix in center only.
7. MONITOR MIXING MODE Selector: This function allows
you to monitor the Cue level as well as the Master (main
output) level in your headphones. Channels Cue Level may
only be monitored if the channel CUE function is selected. To
select a channel cue function press the CUE BUTTON that is
directly associated with the specific channel you wish to
monitor. You may use the mixing function to blend both the
Cue level and the MASTER level together. You can vary the
output level to either hear more or less of either of the two
levels. Turning the Cue Mixing knob to the CUE position (left)
will allow you to hear more of the Cue level. Turning the knob
to the MASTER position (right) will allow you to hear more of
the Program level (main output). You may also use the Cue
Mixing Control to hear either the Cue level or the Master level
exclusively. If the knob is in the full CUE position you will only
hear the cue level, if the knob is in the full MASTER position
you will only hear the main output. This function is especially
