Channel Control Buttons and Channel Control Knobs
Spanning the middle of the Channel Control panel, you’ll find 12 parallel groups of multi
functional channel controls that align with the 12 faders on the Channel Fader panel. Within
each of the 12 groups are four highly visible LED buttons and four touch-sensitive rotary knobs.
If you touch knobs with Control held this will reset the value, and if you turn a knob with Shift
held you will have fine control for the parameter.
Since the functions of these buttons and knobs change based on the channel display mode
and selected channel and active parameters, these “soft” controls remain unlabeled, and are
identified by the corresponding controls on an adjacent LCD monitor. Additionally, each channel
control button is illuminated with bi-colored LEDs to make it easy to identify active buttons,
parameters, and groups of controls at a glance.
In-line EQ display mode showing four red In/Out toggle
switches and four dial controls on each channel.
Channel Control buttons appear red or green when they are matched to a parameter on the
Channel LCD monitor, and can be used as either toggles, On/Off, or In/Out switches for the
adjacent parameter on-screen. Similar parameters will all have the same colored buttons while
the Channel Controls are set to In-Line mode. However, in Channel or Master display mode,
you’ll see alternating rows or groups of red or green buttons to separate the different parameter
groups as shown on the Channel display.
