9. POWER LED & SWITCH
The POWER LED lets you know that the MP8D is plugged
in and turned on. The AC power on/off switch is on the rear
panel of the unit.
10. PHANTOM POWER
The PHANTOM power LED indicates that 24 volts of DC
phantom power is present on all the XLR microphone inputs
to power condenser microphones. Regular dynamic mics
may be connected while the PHANTOM POWER is activat-
ed without encountering problems. The PHANTOM
POWER push-button is located on the rear panel.
DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR
1DIGITAL EFFECTS PROCESSOR SELECT CON-
TROL
The SELECT control selects from 5 banks of reverb sounds,
delays and other effects. Bank A represents room reverbs.
Bank B are combined chambers/plate effects. Bank C is hall
reverberation effects. Bank D are delay effects, and finally
Bank E is the special effects. Simply rotate the SELECT control
to the basic type of effect you prefer. This is a continuous
type of control so you may simply rotate it in either direction
to reach the desired setting. Lists of effects banks appear in
this manual and on the front panel of the MP8D.
NOTE: The signal sent from the Internal Digital Effects Processor to the MONitor mix is independ-
ent from the MONitor SEND controls on the channels strips. The channel's GAIN control feeds sig-
nal into the Effects bus, the channel's EFX control enables you to mix in the amount of wet signal
to your dry mix. Remember, the Internal Digital Effects are heard through the MONitor output only
if the channel's GAIN control is feeding signal into the Effects bus.

Situated next the EFX SELECT control, the CLIP LED indicates that the digital processor is receiv-
ing an input signal which is too strong, possibly resulting in distortion. For maximum dynamic
range, the Clip LED should flash briefly, but only on high-energy transients such as loud snare
drum hits. If there is too much CLIP activity, turn down the channel EFX controls.

BUILT IN 9 BAND GRAPHIC EQUALIZER
General
This, like any graphic equalizer, represents a set of limited-range (+/-12dB) gain controls. In
this case there are nine sliders, each one operating over a one-octave portion of the overall
band of sound frequencies. Please note that equalizers can have an effect on the gain of the
main system as well as its frequency response. Once adjusted, you may need to turn down the
MAIN MASTER level if the CLIP LED beside it becomes very active.
