Input Channel Operations; Signal Flow For Input Channels - Yamaha M7CL Owner's Manual

Input channel operations

This chapter explains operations for input channels (INPUT channels and ST
IN channels).
The input channels are the section that processes the signals received from the rear panel input
jacks or slots 1–3, and sends them to the STEREO bus, MONO bus, MIX buses, and MATRIX
buses. There are two types of input channel, as follows.
I INPUT channels 1–32 {1–48}
These channels are used to process monaural signals. When the M7CL is in the default state, the input signals from INPUT
jacks 1–32 {1–48} are assigned to these channels.
