-Eight channels of balanced A - B switching for line, mic or MIDI signals.
-Each of the eight channels can be individually switched or assigned to a Master Control circuit.
-Master switching is controlled through front panel pushbuttons, optional footswitch or automatically triggered by loss of signal on channel one of A input.
