Phantom power shall be globally-controlled via a rockertype switch. 16 Balanced/ unbalanced (bal/unbal) line inputs shall be wired in parallel, using 1/4" TRS phone jacks, accepting nominal levels from –40dBu to +22dBu. Each channel shall include a pre-fader Insert point, using 1/4" TRS

ing nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu; and 1 stereo pair of T ape In jacks, using unbalanced RCA-type phono jacks, accepting nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu.

3. MIXER OUTPUTS. MAIN OUTPUTS: The mixer’s Main Mix stereo outputs shall be fitted in two ways: Using symmetrically balanced (also accepting unbalanced) 1/4" TRS phone jacks, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +28dBu; and using unbalanced RCA-type phono jacks, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu; and the Main Mix Mono output shall be fitted with one symmetrically balanced (also accepting unbalanced) 1/4" TRS phone jack, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +28dBu. OTHER OUTPUTS: Input channels 1–8 shall each include a post-fader Direct Output, using bal/unbal 1/4" TRS phone jacks, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu. T he mixer shall include 4 Submaster outputs, using bal/unbal

/4" TRS phone jacks, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu; 1 stereo pair of Control Room outputs, using bal/unbal 1/4" TRS phone jacks, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu; 6 Aux Send outputs using bal/unbal 1/4"

TRS phone jacks, delivering nominal levels from –10dBV to +22dBu; and 1 stereo Headphones output, using an unbalanced 1/4" TRS phone jack (tip=left, ring=right, sleeve=ground).

4. MIXER INPUT SECTION.

In addition to the controls listed in section 2 (MIXER INPUTS), each channel shall include 4 rotary Aux Send controls and 1 Shift switch, providing up to 15dB gain, routing signals to Aux Sends 1, 2, 3 and 4 when the Shift switch is disengaged, and to Aux Sends 1, 2, 5 and 6 when the Shift switch is engaged; 4 rotary equalization (EQ) controls: ±15dB fixed 12kHz shelving gain, ±15dB midrange peaking gain, 100Hz – 8kHz midrange frequency, and ±15dB fixed 80Hz shelving; 1 rotary Pan

control, 4dB attenuation panned center; 1 Mute switch; 1 dualmode solo switch (AFL or PFL, globally switched); 3 output Assign switches, delivering the channel’s signal, relative to its Pan setting, to the Main L-R Mix, Submasters 1–2 and Submasters 3–4; and 1 channel Fader, providing up to 1 0dB above unity gain. Additionally, each channel shall include two LED indicators; a –20/Solo LED acting as a Signal Present indicator by flickering and as a channel Solo indicator by glowing steadily; and an OL/ Mute LED, acting as an overload indicator by flickering and as a channel Mute indicator by glowing steadily.

5. MIXER OUTPUT SECTION.

The mixer shall have 1 Main Mix stereo fader, providing up to 10dB gain; 4 Submaster mono faders, each providing up to 10dB gain; independent left and right Assign to Main Mix switches for each Submaster; 1 Control Room/Phones level rotary stereo control, providing up to 10dB gain; 1 Source Matrix, including 4 switches to deliver any combination of stereo signals to the Control Room, Phones and Meters, including Main Mix, Submasters 1–2, Submasters 3–4 and Tape, which shall be replaced by solo signals resulting from the engagement of any Solo switch; 1 rotary stereo T ape In level control, providing up to 20dB gain; 1 T ape to Main Mix switch; 1 Solo Mode switch to globally determine solo type (prefader listen or after-fader listen, in place); 1 rotary stereo Solo level control, providing up to 10dB gain; 4 rotary stereo Aux Return level controls, providing up to 20dB gain; two Effects to Monitor rotary controls, providing up to 15dB gain, delivering summed Aux Return 1 or 2 signals to Aux Send 1 or 2, respectively; an Aux Return 3 Assign switch, used in conjunction with a 1–2/3–4
