how to use this manual format This manual uses a format that is intended to be easy to read, yet technical for those who need to know all the details. For feature descriptions, this is done by devoting the left side of each page to 1) an overall module picture, 2) a block diagram, and 3) a con- trol closeup.These images all pertain to the features and control descriptions on the right side of the page.Also, for certain features like the micro processor system and the solo system that appear over

mono input module 1 EQ features Many audio signals coming into the console require some degree of corrective eq in order to be part of a good sounding mix.The X-VCA offers an uncompro- mised, full parametric EQ on each channel. The input EQ consists of four full parametric bands: high, high-mid, low-mid, and low. The high and low bands are independently switchable for either adjustable bandwidth or shelving mode. All bands offer a generous overlap of adjacent oper- ating frequencies. An independ
