Chapter 5: Console Operation
Output Channels: Signal Flow
Eclipse User Guide 2.0 173/ 526
Output Channels
Just like inputs, all mix busses must be assigned to the surface,
either to a Fader strip or Smart Panel controller. This creates an
output channel which provides level, mute, cue, etc. for the bus
output.
A mix bus can be either mono, stereo LR or stereo LRC. This
decision is made when you assign channel types to Fader strips
or Smart Panel controllers (from the PERSONAL CONSOLE
BUILDER display).
Note that a stereo LR bus uses two DSP resources; a LRC bus
uses three DSP resources.
For now, we are going to concentrate on a mono output
channel. You can find more details on stereo channels on Page
184.
Signal Flow
All output channels provide the following:
• Delay – assignable from a pool of 48 delay resources.
• Pre-fader insert (external device, floating DSP resource
or internal effects bay)
• Pan
• Main level, Mute and Cue
• Post-fader insert (external device, floating DSP resource
or internal effects bay)
