Gain Control - YORKVILLE DJM806 Manuel De L'utilisateur

FEATURE DETAILS
MIC CHANNELS
INPUTS
Each mic channel is mono and has a combination XLR/1/4" TRS (balanced)
microphone connector. The XLR segment is optimized for low-impedance microphones
and is wired Pin 1= Ground, Pin 2 = in phase & Pin 3 = reverse phase. It will accept
line-level signals, however the GAIN control will need to be turned to a lower setting to
prevent clipping. The 1/4 -inch Tip-Ring-Sleeve wiring is; Tip=in phase, Ring=reverse
phase and Sleeve=Ground.

GAIN CONTROL

With signal applied to the input, adjust this control so that occasional flashes of the
CLIP LED are observed — alternately, you can CUE the channel and adjust for "0"
on the Level Meter. This will ensure that the signal level fits comfortably within the
channel strip's headroom ~ low enough to prevent distortion, and yet high enough
to preserve the signal-to-noise ratio.
HIGH, MID, LOW CHANNEL EQ
The HIGH, MID, and LOW equalization is variable by +/-15dB. This is a considerable
amount of gain change, roughly equivalent to a 150% variation in audible loudness.
EFX SEND CONTROL
The EFX send control varies the amount of post-EQ, post-fader channel signal sent to the
master EFX bus. The output of the EFX bus then goes to the internal 16-bit processor.
The output of the effects processor then goes to the MAIN master section to be mixed
with the signals going there direct from the input channels.
CUE BUTTON
The CUE feature enables you to preview channel signals via headphones before they go to
the main system. The CUE signal is post-EQ so that the channel equalization will be in
effect through the headphones, it is pre-fader so that you may use the RIGHT/CUE LEVEL
meter to help set the channel GAIN for an average "0" reading. Use the PHONES LEVEL to
adjust cueing volume. CUE LED's remain on while the cue buttons are depressed.
To test the CUE feature, simply follow these steps:
a) Connect a low, or high, impedance mic to MIC 1, 2, or 3 and set the
channel fader to zero.
b) With the HEADPHONES CROSSFADER set to CUE , phones plugged in, the
PHONES LEVEL turned up and the DISPLAY ASSIGN button down in
PGM/CUE position, you are ready to preview the mic.
c) Depress the channel CUE button. Now that channel will have prominence
through your headphones.
d) Talk through the mic at performance volume. Listen through the phones while
adjusting the channel GAIN for maximum signal level before CLIP activity on
the channel or for roughly a "0" average reading on the meters.
e) When you are ready to insert the program, simply take it off hold and bring up the
channel level fader. If it is on CH1 or CH2, you will also need to CROSSFADE to it.
CHANNEL FADER
This adjusts the level of the post-EQ channel signal headed directly for the LEFT
and RIGHT MAIN masters. It also regulates the EFX send signal level.
CLIP LED
The channel CLIP LED watches all the active electronic stages in the channel
circuit. Whenever any stage's signal peak approaches clipping to within 3dB, the
CLIP LED circuitry captures and displays this event. See under GAIN control for
more about this feature.
