5.6 Main Mono/Center Bus (StudioLive 64S only)
StudioLive™ Series III
Owner’s Manual
But what if you want more kick in your subwoofer? Or less keys?
This is where the Mono send comes into play, allowing you to customize your low-
frequency mix to better enhance your system.
If you need even more control, you can set the send position to pre-fader for a truly
independent subwoofer mix.
5.6.2 LCR Mode
LCR Pan mode allows you to pan each channel across three positions, from
left to center to right and back again, through any position in between. This is
accomplished using the Center Divergence control. This powerful feature provides a
true LCR panning experience and allows you to precisely place each channel where
you want it in your LCR system, affording more clarity and greater system efficiency.
The Center Divergence works in conjunction with the pan control, setting the
prominence of each channel in the Center bus as the pan position approaches center
(<C>).
To adjust the Center Divergence, scroll to the second page of the Fat Channel
Input layer and use the encoder below the Center Divergence display.
The Center Divergence control has a range from 0% to 100%.
Understanding Center Divergence
When the Center Divergence control is set to 0% and the channel is panned to center
(<C>), a mono channel’s signal will be sent equally to the left and right sides of the
Main Stereo bus. Stereo channels will retain their stereo positions (i.e. the left side
will be sent to the left side of the Main stereo bus and the right side will be sent to
the right).

As the Center Divergence is adjusted from 0% toward 100%, a channel panned to
the center (<C>) will be more prominent in the Center bus as the Center Divergence
percentage is increased.
When the Center Divergence is set to 50% and the channel is panned to the center
(<C>), the signal will be sent to the both sides of the Stereo bus and the Center bus at
the same level.
