Channel Section
The Channel section provides 16 channel strips to control input and output channels. Each channel strip has a fader, an assignable chan-
nel encoder to control adjustable channel parameters, and a display to show channel and associated parameter information. Channels are
banked (assigned) to channel strips using the
A–F and User bank switches, as well as the < Bank > and < Nudge > switches. Input and
output channels can be banked to channel strips.
Channel Strips
Each channel strip provides a Solo and Mute switch, a 100mm
motorized touch-sensitive fader, a channel select (
Sel) switch,
and a level meter. Each channel strip also features an assignable
channel encoder and display.
Solo
The Solo switch toggles the solo state of that channel. The
switch is lit when that channel is soloed. When the channel is in
Solo Safe mode, the switch flashes. The
Solo switch has momen-
tary and latching capabilities (see “Using Solo” on page 131).
Mute
The Mute switch mutes the channel at the (pre-fader) mute
point. The switch is lit when that channel is muted.
Fader
The fader adjusts the level of the currently banked channel.
The Options > Interaction screen lets you enable touch-sensitive
channel selection. When enabled, touching a channel fader auto-
matically selects that channel and makes it the selected channel.
Sel
The Channel Sel switch targets that channel for processing
using Channel Control, and for inclusion in Multi-Select and
Multi-Assign functions. The switch is lit when that channel is se-
lected.
Rec
This switch has no function for VENUE software.

The faders can be moved even when they do not sense a touch.
This allows use of the faders while wearing gloves, and also
lets you “throw” a fader and have it stay where it lands (not
snap back to where it was last touched).
See “Selecting and Targeting Channels” on page 44.
