Rather, they send a control voltage to a pair of VCAs (voltage-controlled amplifiers) that determine the gain of the signal. This is a very good thing, by the way, as the audio will not be affected by any scratchy electrical contacts, and the design allows for customizing the fader action using the contour and reverse controls. . REVERSE LED These light when the front-panel reverse switches [49] have been activated for pgm 1 or pgm 2 faders. MAIN LEVEL METERS These meters are similar to the pgm level meters [43], but indicate the signal strength of the main outputs before the main level control. As with the other meters, you want to see the signals bouncing between the "0" and the "+6" LEDs. It is okay if the OL LEDs light occasionally, but if they light frequently or continuously, turn down the program faders [42] until the OL LEDs blink occasionally, or not at all.

CROSSFADER REVERSE 2 4 7 10 The crossfader is used to fade between the two pgm signals in the main outputs. When the crossfader is all the way to infinium the left, pgm 1 is heard in the main outs. When the crossfader knob is in the center, the main outs get an even mix of pgm 1 and 2. 30 contact-free cross-fader 20 A B The characteristics of how the crossfader affects the audio signal are determined by its corresponding contour control [48] and the reverse switch [49]. The crossfader is a high-quality infinium contact-free optical digital fader, designed to last the lifetime of the d. 2 Pro with no degradation in quality. You can adjust the tension of the fader movement to your specific taste, by following these steps: 1. Remove the fader cap (knob) by grasping it firmly and pulling straight up. Use a small slot-head screwdriver to turn the screw located through the hole on the left side of the crossfader slot. Rotate the screw clockwise to tighten the tension, and rotate the screw counter-clockwise to loosen the tension. You might need a flashlight to make sure you are lined up on the screw.

CONTOUR Use the contour controls to adjust how fast or slow each fader responds to movement. In the slow position, the faders respond in a linear fashion, increasing from minimum to maximum at the same rate. In the fast position, the faders respond logarithmically, increasing from minimum to maximum very quickly, and then changing very little for the remainder of the fader travel. Adjust the contour controls between the two extremes to get the fader response that works best for your application.
