    USE

    Is Gnrale setup simple? <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />
    Yes, I install / cabl / calibrated for recording in 3/4 hour
    However, be wary of the configuration that you desire for TO
    because the manufacturer has not planned necessarily the same in the documentation.
    Are the usual functions easily accessible? <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />
    Yes it is a console that possde good ergonomics of use
    namely: The MUTE and SOLO MAIN and the MUTE and SOLO MON per channel
    possdent the red LED indicator (MUTE) or green (SOLO) very useful for viewing
    quickly the surface.
    my version possde also a bar graph.
    Is the manual clear and sufficient? ...dropoff Window
    Pretty clear, a little bugg on certain pattern, but insufficient
    in the sense that it is better now to have the vehicle facing is to try
    AUX in particular.


    SONORITS

    translucent, absent, yes it is the serious <img class="smiley" src="https://fr.audiofanzine.com/images/audiofanzine/interface/smileys/icon_biggrin.gif" alt="biggrin" />
