Button Section

The Button Section includes the assignment

buttons (Audio In, Logic In, Logic Out, Groups, Input

Proc, Out Proc, Mute Ind) and the DSP buttons

(Input EQ, Graph EQ, Param EQ, Compress, Gate,

Delay, X-Over).

Assignments

Audio In

Click this button to open the Audio Input window.

Name: Enter a name for each channel with the

keyboard. It will accept up to 32 characters.

Force On: Assign a force-on level to each input,

from OFF to +10 dB. Click and drag in the Force On

Level box to change the force-on level setting. The

force-on action is always relative to the current

mix level.

Force Off: Assign a force-off level to each input,

from OFF to +10 dB. Click and drag in the Force Off

Level box to change the force-off level setting. The

force-off action is always relative to the current mix

level.

Force On Priority: Assign a priority level from 1

(highest) to 8 (lowest) for each channel’s force-on

function. The default setting is None.

Button Section The Button Section includes the assignment buttons (Audio In, Logic In, Logic Out, Groups, Input Proc, Out Proc, Mute Ind) and the DSP buttons (Input EQ, Graph EQ, Param EQ, Compress, Gate, Delay, X-Over). Assignments Audio In Click this button to open the Audio Input window. Name: Enter a name for each channel with the keyboard. It will accept up to 32 characters. Force On: Assign a force-on level to each input, from OFF to +10 dB.

Logic In Click this button to open the Logic Input window. Make the following settings and assignments in the Logic Input window: Name: Enter a name for each Logic Input, up to 32 characters. Function: Select one of 7 different functions in this drop-down box. The functions include Inactive, Force-on, Force-off, Mute Input, Mute Output, Mute Group, and Preset Recall. Action: Select whether the particular function selected is momentary, latch on, latch off, or toggling.

Input Proc Click this button to view the processors (Gate, Compressor, Input EQ) that are active for each input in the Crosspoint Matrix Section. Lit buttons show processors that are turned on. Click the buttons to turn the processors on and off for each individual input. Mute Ind Click this button to view the Active Mute Groups indicator in the upper left corner of the screen. If a group mute button is active, the associated indicator lights up in the Active Mute Group indicator.
PAGE 4
Graph EQ Click this button to view the 31-band 1/3-octave Graphic EQ controls for a selected output. Click the output letter buttons (A-J) to select an output. Click the On button to activate the Graphic EQ for the selected output. The Reset button returns all the sliders to their center (0 dB) positions. Each band is on an ISO center frequency ranging from 20 Hz to 20 kHz, with ± 15 dB gain on each band. Click and drag on a slider knob to adjust the EQ.

from 1.0:1 (off) to 20:1. Thus, if it is set to 10:1, an increase in input level of 10 dB results in a 1 dB increase in output level. This assumes the input is above the threshold level. Generally, use ratio settings from 1.5:1 to 5.0:1 for compressor use. Settings from 10:1 to 20:1 are more useful for limiting purposes. This is because in that range the output level changes very little as the input increases.
PAGE 6
Delay Click this button to view the Delay settings for a selected output. Click the output letter buttons (A-J) to select an output. Click the On button to activate the Delay Line. Click the Metric button to change the settings from inches/feet/Fahrenheit to mm/meters/Celsius. Click the Reset button to return all the knobs to their default settings. The Delay Line has three knobs: Temp, Coarse, and Fine. Click and drag on the individual knobs to adjust each parameter.

Crosspoint Matrix Section This section provides a view of all the input-tooutput crosspoints in the mixing matrix. It has a numerical and graphical indication of the gain setting for each crosspoint. Click the associated letter button (A-J) in the Output Section to select an output and the horizontal row of input crosspoints is highlighted. The input faders in the Input Section now control the gain settings and mix for the selected output.
PAGE 8
Use the output faders to adjust the final output level of the signal. Adjust the output faders so that the associated output meter indicates around the –10 and –7 dB positions when a normal signal is going to that output. This provides the best signalto-noise ratio for the output stage. It’s okay for the –4 and –2 LEDs to blink occasionally on musical peaks. However, avoid allowing the red 0 dB indicator to light, which indicates that the signal is within 2 dB of clipping.
