MASTER SECTION
16. EFFECTS PEAK LED: Illuminates to indicate -6 dB of headroom before the signals being sent to the
effects circuit are clipped. Ideally, you would want this LED to light only occassionally. An occassional
blink indicates that you have the levels at an optimum setting. It is advisable to listen carefully to the
output at the same time in order to determine the final setting.
17. PRESET: Selects the effect preset from the list below.
EFX Presets
PRESET NAME TIME/SIZE COLOR/TONE
1 Chamber Time: 150 to 5,000 ms Damping (High Frequency)
2 Plate Time: 100 to 4,000 ms Damping (High Frequency)
3 Room Time: 150 to 5,000 ms Damping (High Frequency)
4 Cathedral Time: 100 to 8,000 ms Damping (High Frequency)
5 Spring Time: 150 to 5,000 ms Damping (High Frequency)
6 Gate Time: 150 to 500 ms Damping (High Frequency)
7 Reverse Time: 150 to 500 ms Damping (High Frequency)
8 Delay + Reverb Time: 0 to 225 ms Reverb Time: 0 to 5,000 ms
9 Bright Delay Time: 0 to 500 ms Feedback: 0 to 99%
10 Warm Delay Time: 0 to 500 ms Feedback: 0 to 99%
11 Dark Delay Time: 0 to 500 ms Feedback: 0 to 99%
12 Ping Pong Delay Time: 0 to 500 ms Feedback: 0 to 99%
13 Chorus Rate: 0.125 to 8 Hz Depth: Best Set Full CW
14 Phaser Rate: 0.250 to 16 Hz Depth: Best Set Full CW
15 Flange Rate: 0.10 to 2.5 Hz Depth: Best Set Full CW
16 Rotary Speaker High Speed: 0.50 to 25 Hz Width: 0 to 100% CW
18. TIME/SIZE: In Reverb and Delay presets, this control adjusts the time of the particular reverb or
delay; in Chorus, Phaser, and Flange, it adjusts the rate of each. In Rotary Speaker setting, this
adjusts the speed of the speaker rotation.
19. COLOR/TONE: Adjusts the high-frequency content of the effects signal. (While using a delay, this
control adjusts the feedback or depth.)
20. EFX TO MON: Controls the amount of effects signal sent to the monitor mix. This control allows
effects to be heard from the stage via the monitor.
21. EFX TO MAIN: Controls the amount of effects signal sent to the main mix.
22. FLS
®
(Feedback Locator System): These LEDs illuminate to indicate the frequency band of highest
energy. When feedback occurs, this system will automatically indicate the graphics slider to use to
decrease that frequency band’s gain in order to lessen or eliminate feedback. (NOTE: These LEDs
illuminate with any audio signal, not just during feedback.)
23. GRAPHIC EQUALIZERS: These 9-band equalizers are fixed on one-octave centers. They are
designed for 12 dB of cut and 12 dB boost. They are connected directly to their power amplifier inputs.
24. SYSTEM MODE: This switch is used to configure the XR
®
696 as either a stereo or dual mono
amplifier. It is recessed to prevent accidental switching during a performance. Use a non-metallic
object to change the switch position (e.g., a toothpick). The XR 696 is shipped from the factory in the
default setting of Left Main to the upper EQ and Right to the lower EQ. When this switch is depressed,
it switches the lower EQ to (mono) PA Left + Right. The upper EQ then becomes the monitor signal
only, creating an entire PA and monitor mixing system in one small, easy-to-carry package. And this
change is accomplished without a single patch cord!
