The XL3 is also equipped with 8 mute groups, automute, assignable course, on all inputs and sub-groups.
To return to the input channels, they are equipped with a handy bar graph, it continuously and simultaneously receives signals from the input stage pre and post EQ and back insert.
Of course, all inputs and outputs are balanced ..

UTILIZATION

What pleasure to reuse an analog console in 2010! Although I must admit I much prefer the digital still infinitely more convenient!
To return to the XL3, all important functions are visualized by LEDs making it easy to "read" from the console and a Midas of this size, this is not at all a luxury!
For a console

SOUNDS

dating some twenty years, the performance is quite in line with Midas, excellent! But also colorful enough in return .. We must know ..

OVERALL OPINION

Using an analog console is a choice of heart because of the twenty-first century, but what a joy to find this sound, so distinctive and so elusive .. I had forgotten that it could be as pleasant to listen .. Wow!
