4. Instruccions de funcionament
The S-phone offers comprehensive control over each headphone mix.
4.1. Master Section Controls
- VOLUM MÀSTER: Adjusts the overall output level of the main stereo input to all channels.
- MASTER LEVEL METERS: 8-segment LED meters display the master stereo input level. Aim for levels that illuminate the green LEDs, avoiding the red "CLIP" LED.
- Interruptor MONO/STEREO: Toggles the main input between stereo and mono operation. In mono, the left and right signals are summed.
4.2. Individual Channel Controls (Channels 1-4)
- CHANNEL LEVEL METERS: 8-segment LED meters display the output level for each individual channel.
- VOLUM: Controls the output level for the headphones connected to that specific channel.
- BAIX: Adjusts the low-frequency content of the channel's output.
- AGUTS: Adjusts the high-frequency content of the channel's output.
- AUX IN: (Front Panel) 1/4-inch input for connecting an auxiliary audio source to be mixed with the main signal for that channel.
- SALDO: This control has two functions depending on the ST/2CH switch setting:
- Quan ST/2CH està configurat a ST (Stereo): The BALANCE control adjusts the left-to-right balance of the stereo signal.
- Quan ST/2CH està configurat a 2 canals (Two Channel/More Me): The BALANCE control adjusts the mix ratio between the main stereo input and the auxiliary input for that channel. Turning it left favors the main input, turning it right favors the auxiliary input. This is often referred to as the "More Me" function, allowing a performer to hear more of their own instrument or vocal.
- ST/2CH Switch: Selects the mode for the BALANCE control, as described above.
- PHONES Outputs: (Front and Rear Panels) Connect headphones to these 1/4-inch stereo outputs.
