In mono mode all eight channels are summed monaurally across both speaker channels.
Eight volume controls on the front panel allow separate adjustment of each channel in the summing mix and a recessed trim pot on the front panel serves as a master volume control for all eight selected channels. The front panel also features a power indication LED and headphone output jack.The rear panel features the analog inputs on a DB-25 connector and the AES digital inputs on four female BNC connectors. Termination is selectable for each of the four digital inputs. The unit is powered by an included external power supply.
