003 & 003 Rack Getting Started Guide34
Display Section
The top portion of the 003 includes an LCD display, Display mode switch, and status indicators.
LCD Display
For all 003 operating modes, the LCD display
provides status information.
In Pro Tools mode, when a session is open, 003’s
LCD is a large, two-row display. The LCD display
dedicates two rows, each with up to six charac-
ters, to each channel strip.
In most views, the top row of the LCD shows the
the current view or mode status on the left side
and the session’s Main Counter on the right
side.
The bottom row of the LCD shows track, send,
and insert names, and pan position, send levels,
and plug-in control information, depending on
the current view, as selected by the Chan-
nel/Console switches.
The default display is the name of the displayed
element. Names of items with more than six
characters are abbreviated to six characters. Full
names of items with more than 6 characters can
be temporarily displayed in the LCD. See “Dis-
playing Full Names of Tracks, Insert Parameters,
and Other Elements” on page 90.
When you move a fader or rotary encoder, the
LCD will temporarily display the value for that
control in the lower row of the LCD, then return
to the default display. Values can also be tempo-
rarily displayed without moving a control or set
to display always. See “Displaying Settings In-
stead of Track or Control Names” on page 90.
Additional LCD Naming Conventions in
Pro Tools Mode
When a send or insert is muted, its names is cap-
italized in the LCD display.
When a track, send, or insert is inactive, “@” ap-
pears before its name in the LCD display.
