S2 User Handbook
Presets
Two presets are available for adjustment of the input gain for the mic and line levels.
The mic preset, P1, provides 59dB of gain adjustment, allowing an input range of –7dB to
–66dB. The preset should be adjusted to give 0dB output for the chosen microphone in use.
The level is preset for –50dB input when shipped.
The line preset, P3, provides 16dB of gain adjustment, allowing an input range of +6dB to
–10dB referenced to 0dB output. The preset should be adjusted to give 0dB output for the
chosen source, and will cater for professional equipment with nominal output levels up to
+4dB and non-professional equipment with nominal output levels down to –10dBV. The
level is preset for 0dB input when shipped.
Presets P5 & P6 are for altering the audio waveform symmetry (i.e. distortion). They are
factory set on nal test and should not be adjusted further.
A third preset, P9, sets the VCA fader gain to 0dB when the fader is fully open. This is preset
on nal test and should not require further adjustment, unless it has been found necessary
to replace the fader or other VCA components.
Button Mode Settings
To make the S2 modules as exible as possible, every button on each channel can be set
to a number of dierent modes. These will aid in the use of the mixer and allow for extra
functionality. To make use of these modes, you must enter a setup mode which is exactly
the same for every module. It is only necessary to perform this procedure once.
To enter the setup mode, hold down the PGM and AUD buttons together for 5 seconds.
After which all the buttons will start a recurring ashing sequence, at this point it is ok to
release the PGM and AUD buttons. This sequence indicates the mode which each button is
currently set to. One ash equals mode one, two ashes equals mode two etc. To change the
mode for a particular button simply press it once and watch the number of ashes increase.
Once the maximum mode number has been reached it will simply wrap around to mode
one and continue as before. To exit this setup procedure press and hold both the PGM and
AUD buttons as before for 2 seconds and the module will start operating as normal.
Each button and their corresponding modes are listed below.
PGM
Mode 1 : Normal. The program bus can be selected as normal.
Mode 2 : Always on. The program bus is permanently selected.
Mode 3 : Always o. The program bus is permanently deselected.
AUD

Mode 2 : Always on. The audition bus is permanently selected.
