2.5  Mono out section for 
subwoofer applications
Using this auxiliary mono output you can route the main mix signal to a separate 
power amp. The tunable low-pass filter allows you to limit the signal content to 
the low-frequency range to get a perfect subwoofer signal. This signal is mono 
because very low frequencies disperse quickly, so there would be no benefit to 
position this signal in the stereo mix.

The MONO fader controls the volume of the signal present at the  
MONO OUT (see 
(32)
).
(30) 
The FREQ control adjusts the cut-off frequency of the low-pass filter  
(30 to 200 Hz). Frequencies above cut-off are filtered out when activated.
(31) 
Use the LOW PASS FILTER switch to activate the filter function (LED illuminates).

(32) 
The MONO OUT connector provides the line-level mono signal for 
connection to the inputs of a power amp or active speaker. You can also use 
this output as a monitor bus, e.g. to connect a headphone amplifier. In this 
case, the signal should of course not be limited by the low-pass filter.

Use this high-precision MAIN fader to control the output level of the main mix.

The MAIN OUT(puts) are balanced XLR connectors with a nominal operating 
level of +4 dBu and provide the main mix signal.

The MAIN OUT ¼" TRS connectors outputs also provide the main mix signal.
(36) 
Like the channel inserts, the MAIN INSERT connectors can be used to 
connect a dynamics processor or equalizer for further processing of the 
mix signal. The MAIN INSERT refers to the Main Outs (XLR and ¼" TRS 
connectors), the MONO OUT (see 
(32)
) and, if the MAIN switch in the 
PHONES/CONTROL ROOM section is pressed, also to the PHONES/CTRL ROOM 
output (see 
(46)
).

The red “+48 V” LED illuminates when phantom power is on. 
Phantom power is required for the operation of condenser microphones, 
and can be switched on with the corresponding switch on the rear of 
the console.
(38) 
The POWER LED is illuminated when the console is switched on.
(39) 
The high-precision level meter accurately indicates the output signal level. 
For example, when you press the SOLO switch on one of the input channels, 
its signal level will be displayed here, either pre-fader (PFL) or post-fader 
(SOLO), depending on the position of the SOLO/ PFL switch (see 
(40)
). In PFL 
mode only the left display is active, because the PFL signals are mono.
