5.3.1 Solo Mode
The three Solo modes can be selected by pressing their respective switches in the Solo
Control Panel. Selecting one mode deselects the previous mode.
APL (After-Pan Listen): Signal is post-fader and pan (stereo)
PFL (Pre-Fader Listen): Signal is pre-fader in mono
SIP (Solo-In-Place): Allows Solo channels through to the mix busses. Mutes all channels
not soloed but not channels designated Solo-Safe (page 76). This mode allows monitor-
ing soloed channels with panning and effects if the effects returns have been designated
Solo-Safe. We do not recommend this destructive solo mode for live broadcast or for
recording a mix or dub.
Film Mode: Switches any mix busses in playback to bus temporarily so an SIP solo can
be heard.
