Output Channels; Signal Flow For Output Channels - Yamaha QL5 Reference Manual

OUTPUT channels

This chapter explains output channels (MIX channels, MATRIX channels, STEREO channels,
MONO channels).

Signal flow for output channels

The output channel section takes the signals sent from the input channels to the various
buses, processes them with EQ and dynamics, and sends them to output ports or other
buses. The following types of output channels are provided.
MIX channels
These channels process signals sent from input channels to MIX buses, and output them to
the corresponding output port, MATRIX bus, STEREO bus, or MONO (C) bus.

STEREO channel/MONO (C) channel
Each of these channels processes the signal sent from the input channels to the STEREO
bus or MONO (C) bus, and send it to the corresponding output port or MATRIX bus. If input
channels are in LCR mode, the STEREO (L/R) channels and the MONO (C) channel can be
used together as a set of three output channels.
