RNRL1 - Mono Input Module

Routing - The 8 group busses are selected using the assignment switches.
Pan Grps (Pan to Groups) selects the 8 Group bus assigns post-panpot.

Inputs - The Mr. Rupert Neve mic amp is controlled by a 12 position rotary switch with a range of 0 to 66dB, and a separate trim control with a range of +/- 6dB.
Phantom Power is sent to the socket when the 48 (+48V DC) switch is pressed.

Equalisation - The EQ is designed by Mr. Rupert Neve and a greater degree of cut and boost (+/-18dB) is available on each of the four bands, with a continuously variable Q on the two mids.
As well as the normal function of the rotary Hi and Low Pass filters, there is also a second path To S/C that routes the filter into the Virtual Dynamics side chain.

Low Pass Filter is continuously variable between 25Hz and 500Hz @ 12dB/octave.

High Pass Filter is continuously variable between 2kHz and 30kHz @ 12dB/octave.

HF (High Frequency): is continuously variable 2kH to 20kHz, boost/cut +/- 18dB, Bell/Shelf switch.

HMF (High Mid): is continuously variable 500Hz to 4.5kHz, boost/cut +/- 18dB, continuously variable Q.

LMF (Low Mid): is continuously variable 100Hz to 1kHz, boost/cut +/-18dB, continuously variable Q.

LF (Low Frequency): is continuously variable 30Hz to 300Hz, boost/cut +/- 18dB, Bell/Shelf switch.

Separate In/Out switches are provided for the filters and EQ sections.

Insert - The insert point is post EQ, pre-fader and has its own In/Out switch.

An internal switch allows the Insert to be positioned pre-EQ.

Ø - the Phase Reverse switch acts on the Mic/Line input.

Auxiliary Sends - Recall has 12 Auxiliary busses.
Auxes 1-8 have dual concentric knobs, each with its own On/Off and Pre/Post switches (Off and Post are in the switch up position).

Auxes 9 & 10 and 11 & 12 are sourced from dual concentric knobs. Each pair of sends has its own Pre/Post and On/Off switches. An internal jumper allows Auxes 11 & 12 to have a level and Pan arrangement.

Aux 1 & 2 On switches are automated.

Mon Source - changes Aux 11/12 into a monitor and converts it to a level and pan arrangement, this input is sourced from a separate connector.

Dir Aux 12 - inserts send 12 into the Direct Output path to provide a variable output level, which can be derived Pre or Post fader. An internal jumper allows the Pre signal to be derived Pre EQ.

Pan - The Panpot follows the fader and is -3dB, centre-indented.

SEL - The SEL switch allows you to step through the 3 Automation Modes, Safe, Update and Override.

Meter - Each channel has an 8-LED Pre-Fader Meter calibrated from -30 to +8dB with the top LED giving overload indication when the signal reaches approximately 6dB below clipping. The Overload LED has a fast attack and a slow decay time.

Mute - A large illuminated Mute is provided. This is automated.

PFL - The PFL button provides a Pre-Fade Listen signal, but may be internally selected to provide stereo ALF (After-Fade Listen).

The PFL switch may be operated in either momentary, latching or interlock modes as selected from the RL4 module.
A full Solo In Place system is also provided by assigning the SEL switch to be a Solo switch (from the RL4).

Fader - The 100mm conductive plastic Fader has an associated VCA, (for the 8 VCA groups and snapshot facilities). VCA Groups can be set up from the console surface or the computer.

Virtual Dynamics - Level on the channel output and Auxiliary send sourced post-fader can be controlled using the Virtual Dynamics system which provides a choice of one from ten software-driver gain controllers. The Dynamics side chain input can be internally jumpered to be either Post EQ or Pre EQ Post filters.

Automation - Aux 1 & 2 On, the Mute switch and VCA fader are all automated.
