CH ON/CH SELCH ON/CH SEL
On/off of the stereo out L, R signals
The stereo L, R output signals from ST OUT L, R connectors (balanced/unbalanced) can be set to on
or off by the VM88 top panel ST OUT ON/OFF switch. This is ON ( ) at leaving the plant.
Outputs from ST OUT L, R
connectors (balanced/unbalanced)
can be switched ON or OFF.
* ST OUT ON/OFF switch (ON and OFF alternates with
each press of this switch)
< Please remember! >
Switching on/off the output signal from the ST OUT L, R connectors is also possible by muting (see
previous explanation) the master channel with the MASTER channel CH ON/CH SEL key.
This procedure also mutes the monitor output and the S/P DIF digital signal (except the ADAT
digital signal).
When manipulating the ST OUT ON/OFF switch, the ST OUT L, R connector output signal only is
controlled; the monitor output/DIGITAL OUT signal (S/P DIF or ADAT) will not be affected.
< NOTE >
When ST OUT is switched OFF ( ), all of the LED
level meters will blink. This is not a malfunction,
but indicates that no signal is being output from
the ST OUT L, R connectors.
Mute ON channel (LED is off).
Mute of the various input channel/master output
Mute ON/OFF of channels 1 ~ 4, 5/6, 7/8 and master output can be done using the CH ON/CH
SEL key. Normally, the CH ON/CH SEL keys for channels 1 ~ 4, 5/6, 7/8 and MASTER are all ON
(key LED is lit). Therefore, when the CH ON/CH SEL key of the channel you wish to mute is
pressed, sound from that channel only will be muted (the CH ON/CH SEL key LED of the channel
that was pressed will be extinguished). Mute ON/OFF alternates with each pressing of the CH
ON/CH SEL key.
<Useful information !>
In addition to operating with the CH ON/CH SEL
key, mute ON/OFF of master output is also pos-
sible using the foot switch (Optional Model 8051).
In the foot switch functional setting is set for [Mute
function of master output] in the [Setup mode] of
the VM88, mute can be executed by stepping on
the foot switch. For details on the [Setup mode],
please refer to page 33.
