Setting Up Gang Structures
ä
To setup a gang structure press the GANG/LINKS key in the FADERS GLOBAL CONTROL panel.
The key’s green LED will flash. The displays for all strips (including master group aux faders) will flash
‘Ganging’.
ä
To select a master press and hold down the ACCESS key on the selected strip.
The key’s LED will illuminate.
ä
To select slaves hold down ACCESS key in the strip and touch the faders for the chosen slaves.
The key’s LED will illuminate.
In the status display to the left of the fader SLV will illuminate green confirming its selection as a slave. In the
status display to the left of the fader MST will illuminate red confirming its selection as master.
ä To select submasters press the ACCESS key of the desired submaster and touch the fader of the strip/s which
will be the submaster’s slave/s.
The submaster’s status display will illuminate MST red and SLV green at the same time. The slave will illuminate
SLV green.
ä
To deselect slaves/masters/submasters hold down the ACCESS key of the master and touch the faders for
the faders to be deselected.
As each fader is touched the SLV display will cease to be illuminated - when all slaves have been de-selected the
MST display will cease to be illuminated.
ä
To save the Gang Structure press the KEEP DESK key in the utility panel.
Linking Controls
It is possible to link controls between paths, so that changing the value of a process on one path, affects the
same parameter on other paths in the link.
ä
To set up a control link, you must first put the desk in LINKING mode. This is done by either pressing the
Gangs/Links key twice, or holding SHIFT and then pressing Gangs/Links once.
All the alphas will flash the word LINKING.
ä
To set the scope for a link, press and hold the Access key for the desired path, then press the CLEAR key.
This resets the scope of the link to include all controls for that path.
ä
When you then press a process key in the centre of the channel strip, the scope is cleared down to include
only that process, and subsequent process key presses will add those elements into scope.
ä
By displaying a process on the channel strip, it is also possible to add or subtract individual controls by using
the adjacent Mode keys by each logicator.
