Channel Modes
There are three channel modes: man, auto, and mute. Changing modes initiates a
half-second fade to the new mode. Like radio buttons, you can only choose one
mode at a time.

Man
In man mode there is no automixing, and the signal passes through at unity gain.
Even though man and bypass modes perform similar functions, we recommend using
man during live mixing to prevent clicks.
Auto
This is the normal Dugan automixing mode.
Mute
The channel is muted when mute is active.
TIP: To eliminate unwanted noise in the mix, use the gain displays to locate the offending
channel, then activate its mute button.
