Soundcraft EPM12 [17/36] Peak led

8 MUTE

All outputs from the channel except inserts are on when the MUTE switch is released

and muted when the switch is down, allowing levels to be pre-set before the signal is

required.

9 INPUT CHANNEL FADER

The 60mm FADER, with a custom-designed law to give even smoother control of the

overall signal level in the channel strip, allows precise balancing of the various source

signals being mixed to the Master Section. You get most control when the input GAIN is

set up correctly, giving full travel on the fader. See the “Initial Setup” section on page 22

for help in setting a suitable signal level.

10 PFL

When the latching PFL switch is pressed, the pre-fade pre-mute signal is fed to the

headphones, control room output and meters, where it replaces the MIX. The PFL

ACTIVE LED on the Master section illuminates to warn that a PFL is active. This is a

useful way of listening to any required input signal without interrupting the main mix, for

making adjustments or tracing problems. When PFL is pressed anywhere on the console,

the Control Room outputs automatically switch from monitoring the Mix Outputs.

11 PEAK LED

This LED will light when the signal level approaches clipping at any of the three monitored

points:

a) PRE-EQ

b) POST-EQ

c) POST-FADE
