1 SCENARIO Time was when it became necessary to update the ubiquitous AD145 PICO mixer. Our survey showed two main requiremen

19 Auxiliary 1 is a fixed level and auxiliary 2 has a level control (6), which acts purely as an attenuator - when set at 10 and source post-fader t

20 OUTPUT MODULE

21 This module controls the level of main and monitor output signals and metering of the output and monitor signals (including PFL). Calibration is

22 Line-up tone, when selected (11), replaces the normal signals on the main output. The frequency of the line-up tone may be selected between 1kH

23 Communications from external 1 outstation to the mixer operator is initiated at the outstation and feeds the PFL mix busses. This is
