Introduction
1.  
The manual
1.1  
Nomenclature
1.1.1  
Most specialist subjects are not really all that difficult provided you understand 
the language used, and the vocabulary of mixing is pretty straightforward. 
Nevertheless, it is as well to be clear about what certain terms mean. A “slot” 
in a recorder will always be referred to as a TRACK, while that in a mixer will 
invariably be a CHANNEL. A GROUP will always refer to a submix of channels, 
never a collection of musicians. Similarly the term BAND will be mentioned 
only in conjunction with FREQUENCY. We will attempt to be as unambiguous as 
possible with terms, since much confusion can arise from sloppy definitions.
Some terms can have a plurality of meanings. TRACK, in mixing parlance, 
refers to a tape recorder. In electronic circuits, components on a PCB 
(printed circuit board) are linked by flat conductors called TRACKS. 
Hopefully, where terms have different meanings the contexts will be 
sufficiently diverse so as to avoid any possible confusion.
An unholistic approach
1.1.2  
It is virtually impossible to fully explain one aspect of a mixing console 
(e.g. CHANNEL ROUTING) without also making it clear what those routes are, 
where they go, are they migratory, etc. That’s why we have compartmentalized 
the EURODESK manual into sections, making it easy to find problem solving 
information and advice. You might find that several cross-sectional references 
have been made, where areas of interest overlap. E.g.: Channel EQ is specified and 
described in the “Main equalizer” section 3.4, while EQUALIZATION has its own 
section, reflecting it’s importance and weight as a subject in its own right.
If we keep repeating ourselves concerning the use of B-channels and the MIX-B 
bus, it’s because a proper understanding of this area of the board will greatly 
expand your mixing repertoire.
Key
1.1.3  
All DESK functions will be numbered consistently throughout the manual, 
whether they be in the text or in an illustration. In addition the following prefixes 
will be used to denote the various types of function control in any illustrations/
text respectively:
Prefix
Meaning
S
Switch
L
LED
P
Potentiometer
F
Fader
Tab. 1.1: Meaning of the used prefixes
After every prefix you will find the FUNCTION NUMBER. Numbering starts at the 
top of a CHANNEL, works its way through a stereo GROUP, and finally through the 
MASTER SECTION. The phantom power and tape operating level switches are not 
included in the numbering system.
