Connections and circuit (ideal SPICE model)
Inputs, outputs, power and control as its own documents name them (no RTO-144 sheet for it: pin numbers only where the page gives them). Run the generator, turn the gain, watch the VU.
Pinout & connections
Each contact as its own documents name it: 2 named (2 low confidence). An empty slot is a contact no page names. Hover a contact for its source; the table under the drawing lists them.

5-10 1 AMPLIFIER SERIES
The operation of both amplifier sections is identical. On ly one section wi ll be described , Each section consists of two 'i ndi vi dua l inverting amplifiers, namely Zl and Z2. These are followed by their respective out- put stages Ql through Q4. In the 5-101, the two amplifier inputs are i nt e r conne ct e d to provide a cross coupled different ial pair res ulting in a balanced 6 ,000 ohm input. The output is actively balanced . The 5-101A is designed with the Z2 section to be used as a summing (mixing) input. The output of this section at termina l E4 is externally connected to E1, thus providing an unbalanced input and an actively balanced output. The 5-101B presents an unbalanced bridging input (15k ohms) to the source. As is the case with the 5-101A, the output at terminal E4 is externally connected to E1 and is actively balanced. R47 to R50 together with C15 and C16 provide on-card power supply decoup1ing.

M456B DUAL MIXDOWN_MODULE The M456B is dua] channe] unit designed to receive either conso ]e (DIRECT ) outputs or tape (PLAYBACK) outputs A solid state switch selects the desired input source The module outputs feed stereo mixing bus which in turn supplies the feed for the conso]e monitoring system_ Input (Channe] #1 described) Each channel is equipped with s0]id state switching circuit (Q3 through Q8 for channel #1) = This ci rcuj operates in two-po ]e doub ]e throw configuration and selects either the DIRECT or the PLAYBACK input for further process ing In the norma 7 ' mode 0 f operation i.e with pin P2-T 0 f the modu le connector not connected the PLAYBACK input is switched ON and the DIRECT input is switched 0FF When pin P2-T is connected to ground potentia] the status 0 f the two inputs is reversed With the SyNC button sw8 depressed, the channe] switching is ass igned to separate contro] path for the purpose 0 f selective sync or overdub contro] A separate contact, permitting external Togic contro] via pin P2-U _ is part 0f Sw8 The output 0 f the so]id state Swj tch is followed by buffer amp]ifiers Z1 and 22 _ 22 with Q10 and Q11 combined with 23 Q12 and Q13 form an actively ba anced output circuit From here , the s igna ] is routed through the CHAnNEL ON swi tch SW1 and appears at pins P1-21/Y 0 f the module connector.
Metering_Circuit Associated with each channel is Meter Select relay (K1) The relay picks off the signa 7 ahead 0 f the audio so]id state switches for the DIRECT or PLAYBACK inputs The metering output appears at P2-9 /K for M1 (VU or PPM meter) Depending on the status 0 f the relay the metering circuit will bridge across either the DIRECT or the PLAYBACK input _ As result the meter circuit impedance wil] determine the input impedance 0 f the channel being monitored _ 2 -1
