Console OperationsCue/Fx send Master ControlsEach channel is fitted with two Cue Stereo and four mono FX sends for use as foldback, feeds toeffects devices, etc. The Cue Stereo outputs from each channel may be routed to one of two busses— Stereo Cue A or Stereo Cue B. FX 1-4 feed their respective busses.The master output level controls for these busses (in the top right of the centre section — see left)all have 10dB of gain when turned fully clockwise, and an indent at the ‘12 o’clock’ position, whichcorresponds to 0dB gain.An aFl button is provided for each output. The AFL signal is intelligently assigned to left and rightAFL busses. Selecting AFL on a single FX output will route signal to both left and right AFL busses.Selecting AFL on odd and even numbered FX outputs will route the odd numbered output to theleft AFL bus and the even numbered output to the right AFL bus.The two Cue Stereo and four mono FX outputs are available to external devices via a D-connectoron the centre section connector panel. The Cue outputs are also available as sources to theFoldback outputs (see below).A dedicated set of LCD bargraphs just above the master controls provides metering of the StereoCue A, Stereo Cue B and FX busses (see Centre section Metering).Foldback and Headphone OutputsThe console provides three stereo outputs — Foldback A and B, intended for use in the studio forheadphones or LS playback, plus a stereo headphone feed for control room use; a socket for thisis provided beneath the buffer rail in the centre section. The foldback outputs feed 1/4" jacks on thecentre section connector panel, from where they may be connected to amplifier inputs.The master controls for Foldback A and B are provided by two identical sections fitted just belowthe main output compressor (see left — only Foldback B shown).Each output has a dedicated leVel control, Cut, aFl, and six source selector buttons withassociated level controls:The MIx 1 pot controls the contribution of Main stereo mix bus A (MIx a) and/or the outputof Cue Stereo A (Cue a), to the foldback mix.The MIx 2 pot controls the contribution of the stereo downmix signal (st MIx) and/or theoutput of Cue Stereo B (Cue B), to the foldback mix.In addition, the stereo Main monitor output (st MOn) and the output of External Source SelectorB (ext B) may be selected as sources.Dedicated F/B a and F/B B talkback buttons are used to add talkback to the foldback outputs. The talk to FB: optionin the ssl / Misc / setup menu determines whether the the talkback signal replaces or sums with the foldback mix.HF and LF shelving equalisers are provided on the outputs.2-32 Duality se V3 Operator’s Manual
