6.5  PFL/SOLO
(P94)
(S95)
(L95)
Fig. 6.6: Solo section
6.5.1  PFL
Pressing (S95) disengages the stereo SOLO bus, and replaces it with a separate 
mono PFL (Pre-Fader-Listen) bus. Now anything at all which is SOLOed, isn’t. 
It is PFLed instead. PFL should be used for gain-setting. (See also the essential 
section 13 “Start-up”.)
6.5.2  SOLO
SOLO is short for SOLO IN PLACE, and is the preferred method for auditioning 
an isolated signal or a group of signals. Whenever a SOLO button is pressed, 
all unselected channels are muted in the monitors. Stereo panning is maintained. 
The SOLO bus is derived from the output of the channel PANs, aux send/return 
pots, etc., and is always post fader.
In addition to any local solo LEDs which might be activated, the ultra-bright 
MAIN SOLO LED ((L95)) illuminates whenever anything is SOLO/PFLed. (P94) controls 
the master SOLO/PFL level. Set to unity gain (center detente), this will match the 
mix level.
6.6  Talkback

Fig. 6.7: Talkback
The built in mic (above the main mix faders) allows you to converse with 
artists remotely. The most important controls are the VOLUME ((P99)) and 
PHONES & STUDIO button ((S99), see fig. 6.7). It is possible to route the talkback 
mic to any of the following: aux 1, aux 2, subgroups, and phones and studio 
((S96) to (S99)).
Complex headphone or stage monitoring networks could be constructed where 
(HP1)
, (HP2), aux 1 (pre), aux 2 (pre) and one or more subgroups all feed separate 
monitor mixes. (See section 16.2 “Very tricky headphones”). 
However, since the four pushbuttons are non-latching it might drive you crazy. 
If you are using many headphone feeds, you may find it easier to patch a separate 
microphone for talkback straight into a channel, where it can be routed pretty 
much anywhere.
Engaging TALKBACK (S99) dims the control room (monitors, not lights) by -20 dB 
to restrict the possibility of feedback. All other talkback routes are unaffected.

Expander port bus inputs
If you want to add another console to your EURODESK SX4882, the expander 
port bus inputs give access to all subgroups, auxes and mix busses via an array of 
1/4" jacks, situated top left on the rear panel.
