Button Behaviors
There are various combinations of lighted and unlighted buttons on the
A‑16R Personal Mixer. Here is an overview:
Channel buttons have two LEDs, an upper and lower. •
The upper button is red and indicates that the channel is
selected. The lower button is yellow; it indicates that the
channel is muted. Channel buttons will light solid or flash.
The • Re c a l l button has one red LED. It flashes when the
Re c a l l button is pressed, indicating that you can now select
a mix Preset by touching any numbered button 1‑16.
There is one LED in the • GR o u p button. When the GR o u p
button is pressed, the LED flashes. This indicates that you
can now build or edit a Group.
The • Re c a l l and GR o u p buttons will both flash when held
down simultaneously. This is the Save Mode, as indicated
by the connecting graphic above the two buttons on the
front panel.
When a mix Preset is saved, all sixteen channel buttons will •
flash briefly to confirm the Preset save operation.
The • So l o button has one LED. It will light when pressed,
indicating that the selected channel or Group is now being
auditioned with all other channels being muted. Two Solo
modes are available.
The • mu t e button has no LED in it. Pressing the mu t e button
with a channel selected will cause that channel’s lower
(yellow) LED to light.
There is also one special button combination, the Re c a l l button followed
by the mu t e button. When used together this combination serves a twofold
function:
When starting from scratch to • create a mix, use this func‑
tion to set all sixteen channels to zero volume and all pans
to the center settings.
If there is a sudden change in the audio volume coming •
through the monitor system, this button combination
silences all audio channels instantly.
