The EQ alias also deserves special mention: if your loudspeaker
requires a dedicated equaliser for proper operation (or if you have
any other reason for using an EQ much of the time), you may connect
the outputs of the equalizer to the input named EQ. By recording
the source you wish to listen to (selecting it on the record path), and
montioring the EQ input, you will be able to run all signals through the
equalizer prior at a line level. This is usually preferable to simply placing
the EQ between the preamp and the power amp, as most equalizers
perform best at a (fixed) line level.
Since, in this scenario, you would spend most of your time in the record
path (selecting the source to be equalized) rather than the monitor
path, we have enabled the volume control function in the record
path
when the input selected on the monitor path is named EQ
. Thus,
you may adjust the volume of the selected source without having to
push the mode button twice to return to the monitor path.
To change the alias of any particular input, follow these steps:
1 IN THE MONITOR MODE, SELECT THE INPUT YOU WISH TO RENAME
2 PRESS AND HOLD THE MODE BUTTON…
on the front panel until the display reads SET DATA, as below:
3 RELEASE THE MODE BUTTON; PRESS THE CHOSEN INPUT BUTTON
REPEATEDLY…
until the Alias you desire appears in the display.
4 PRESS AND HOLD THE MODE BUTTON AGAIN…
until the display reads NEW DATA, as shown below. (Note:
see Step
5 below if you have selected an alias of a device capable of
recording
.) This indicates that your new alias for that input has
been stored in non-volatile memory. As a result, this new setting
will survive power outages and other interruptions of AC power to
the preamp.
5 IF YOUR ALIAS MAY REQUIRE AN INPUT…
You will be further prompted to associate a particular Record
Output with this particular device. Instead of showing NEW DATA,
the Display will read RCD: NONE as shown below.
