8 mono channels: Mic [XLR] & Line [TRS] inputs. Line input
overrides the XLR input. Individual +48V phantom power switches are
provided. New padless two-stage preamp with smooth gain law. Line input
goes to second stage for better matching and performance. Switched
100Hz high pass filter. Insert point. 4 band EQ. 4 aux mixes. Mute with
LED. PFL button with LED [functions as peak indicator]. 100mm fader.
4 Band EQ: LF [60Hz], and HF [12kHz]. Fixed LM [250Hz], and swept HM
[300Hz - 6kHz]. The fixed 250Hz control has been carefully selected to
provide reduction of ‘muddy’ sounds and enhance ‘warmth’
16 program digital FX processor provides reverbs, delays, chorus and
others, inc combined. This FX module takes its feed from the post-fade
FX aux on the mono & stereo channels. The output of the FX module
is controlled by a 100mm fader with mute & PFL and is routed to the
stereo mix and FB1&2 with post fade level controls. At this point,
2 TRS inputs with level control provide a way of combining external FX
with the internal unit. Internal FX unit can be switched off to use
external only if preferred. A footswitch TRS jack is provided to mute
the FX channel.

in. Unique ALLEN&HEATH design gives full output into 4 OR 8 ohms
[rear switch selector]. Output is to locking Speakon™ connectors.
Thermal management twin fan system. Full protection - input limiter to
prevent clipping, short circuit protection, current limit and DC fault
sensing. LED indication of: signal presence, peak warning, speaker
protect and temperature. AB amp input TRS break-jacks [normalised to
output section / slave out jacks] allow independent use of the power
amplifiers if desired. Standby mode switch puts amplifier into protect
with speakers isolated.
