Term
Know the Input modes for the channel strip of each console and how to visually recognize each. |
|
Definition
•Amek 9098i = Mic input or Line input and Bus. Press LINE to engage line.
Hit 48TK int he Routing Matrix to get signal from Monitor Path
•SSL 9000J = Line, Mic and Bus. Green LED lights when Line is selected. Red LED lights when Mic signal is being used. When SUB GP is selected, the mic/line is overridden and the channel path receives signal from the routing bus. |

Term
Know how to change between the Input modes on the channel path and monitor path for each console. |
|
Definition
•Amek 9098i = Mic input is default. Press LINE to engage line level. Lab
•SSL 9000J = Defaults to the mic input in RECORD MODE and line in Input in MIX MODE. FLIP button switches between MIC and LINE inputs. Red LED lights when Mic signal is being used. Green LED lights when Line is selected. When SUB GP is selected, the mic/line is overridden and the channel path receives signal from the routing bus. In RECORD MODE input is the mic, In MIX MODE input is Line. The FLIP button switches between mic and line inputs. |

Term
Know the Console Operation Modes and what changes between each mode. |
|
Definition
•Amek 9098i = Not module Console. Channel and Monitor don't change.
•SSL 9000J = RECORD MODE = Source. MIX MODE = MTR. Small Fader feeds the routing matrix, Large fader by default feeds the mix bus. |
|
|
Term
Know how to determine the # of independent signal paths for each console. |
|
Definition
•Amek 9098i = In Line 72 IO's = 144 total independent signal paths
•SSL 9000J = In Line 80 IO's = 160 total independent signal paths |
|
|
Term
Know the # of Mono busses for each console. |
|
Definition
•AMEK 9098i = 48 output busses
•SSL 9000j = 48 output busses |
|
|
Term
Know the # of Stereo busses for each console. |
|
Definition
•AMEK 9098i = 4 Stereo Busses - A, B, C, D
•SSL 9000j = 4 Stereo Busses - A, B, C, D |
|
|
Term
Know the # of Hard Groups for each console. |
|
Definition
•AMEK = no hard groups
•SSL 9000j = There are 8 hard groups |
|
|
Term
Know the # of Dedicated Aux Sends for each console. |
|
Definition
•AMEK 9098i = There are 16 mono aux sends.
•SSL 9000j = Six mono auxes and One stereo cue. |
|
|
Term
Know and understand the signal flow through the Channel Path and the Monitor Path. |
|
Definition
•Amek 9098i = Mic/Line input to channel path to the large fader to routing matrix to Buss Master to the MTR to input of monitor path TAPE/BUS to monitor fader to mix bus to master fader to speakers and two track.
•SSL 9000J = RECORD MODE mic/line/bus are the input to channel path to the channel fader to the routing matrix to buss master to MTR input to GROUP/TAPE to monitor fader to mix buss to master fader to monitors and two track. |
|
|
Term
Know how to send signal to the Routing Matrix from both the Channel path and the Monitor Path. |
|
Definition
•AMEK 9098i = The INPUT REV button will make the mic or line inputs available on the monitor path while the tape and buss inputs will feed the channel fader.
•AMEK 9098i = The 48TK button sends the signal from the monitor fader to the Routing Matrix.
•SSL 9000j = By pressing the SF or LF button in the Routing Matrix the signal from that fader will be assigned to the Routing Matrix. The Small Fader normally feeds the Routing Matrix.. The Small Fader can be sent to the mix bus by pressing SF MIX. |
|
|
Term
Know the EQs. (Parametric filter, shelving filter, High pass & Low pass filters) |
|
Definition
•Amek 9098i = The EQ is in 4 sections: HF (high shelving filter), HMF (high mid filter), LMF (low mid filter), and LF (low filter). HF and LF only on channel path.
•SSL 9000J = There are 4 sections: HF (high frequency) w/ BELL control, The High-Mid frequency is a variable Q equalizer. The Low-Mid is also a variable Q. Low frequency has BELL control. |
