Stereo input channels
 
The GA32/12 and GA24/12 provide two stereo input channel modules. Use the paired 
INPUT 13/14 and 15/16 jacks (see page 17, rear panel 
 
5
 
) to input stereo signals. If you 
connect signals only to the 13L (MONO) jack or 15L (MONO) jack, the same signal will 
be sent t the o M1–4 and ST buses.
 
A
 
 GAIN control
 
This control is used to adjust input sensitivity. The adjustable range is +10 dB to –34 dB.
 
B
 
 PEAK indicator
 
This indicator lights up when the level of signals that have been processed by the EQ 
reaches 3 dB below the clipping level.
 
C
 
 High pass filter switch
 
This high pass filter is used to cut the frequency range below 80 Hz with a slope of 12 dB/
oct.
 
D
 
 EQ controls (HIGH/HI-MID/LO-MID/LOW)
 
This 4-band equalizer provides 
 
±
 
15 dB of cut and boost over each range, with the center 
frequencies and types shown in the following table.
 
E
 
 EQ switch
 
This switch is used to turn the equalization on and off.
 
F
 
 M1–M4 mix level controls
 
These controls are used to route the post fader signals from the stereo input channel to 
MIX buses 1–4. When stereo signals are input, the L channel signal will be sent to MIX 
buses 1, 3, and the R channel signal will be sent to MIX buses 2 and 4.
 
G
 
 ON switches (M1–M4)
 
These switches are used to turn on and off the signals routed from the stereo input channel 
to MIX buses 1–4.
 
H
 
 M5–M10 mix level controls
 
These control knobs route the stereo input channel signals to MIX buses 5–10. Stereo 
input signals are mixed into a monaural signal and sent to MIX buses 5–10. Use the PRE 
switches 
 
9
 
 to select pre- or post-fader.

Note:   When you press down the M1–M4 switches to the FIX position in the Variable/
Fix select section (see page 6), the output level of signals sent to the MIX buses will be 
fixed and the corresponding M1–M4 mix level controls will be disabled.
Note:   When these switches are set to off, no signals are sent from the stereo input 
channel to the corresponding MIX buses regardless of the setting of the switches in the 
Variable/Fix select section (see page 6).
