Being the biggest, newest, shiniest audio desk we have, it is naturally used as our studio desk. Typically, two [[Compressor|compressors]] are connected to the L+R outputs, with more compressors inserted into each microphone channel using the helpfully named 'INSERT' sockets. The matrices outputs feed the control room amplifier, and any two of auxes 3-6 can be used to feed the studio amp if 3+4 are switched to post-fader. The [[computing:VT Server | VT server]] (magic video box), [[Ystvedit2 | edit desk]], [[Computing:IMac | Mac]], and whatever else we happen to be using to play [[hist:University Radio York|URY]] on are usually connected to the desk in stereo - either through a stereo channel (blue fader) or a pair of mono channels with their "pan" knobs turned fully left and fully right.

The LR button on channel 25-26 causes some noise issues on the main LR channels. The entire of the channel seems to be mixed to the right regardless of inputs or pan setting. The two issues may be related

As the desk is one of the few things YSTV still has under warranty, it's been shipped off to a repair center in Germany. The [[Eurorack MX2642A|OB desk]] is being used for studio shows for the time being.

BandSoc also has one of these desks, which we have borrowed on occasion ([[OB:Woodstock 2013|Woodstock 2013]]). Just useful to know if a second one is needed.
