Chapter 3: VENUE SC48 Control Overview
21
Solo Switch
The Solo switch toggles the solo state of that channel. When
enabled, the Solo switch LED is lit. When the channel is in
Solo Safe mode, the Solo switch LED flashes. Channel Solo
latches on a momentary press, and automatically releases if
held for 2 seconds or more and released.
Mute Switch
The Mute switch mutes the channel at the (pre-fader) mute
point.
Input Faders and Banking
Each channel features a 100mm motorized, touch-sensitive
fader. The Options > Interaction screen lets you enable
touch-sensitive channel selection. When enabled, touching a
channel fader automatically selects that channel and makes it
the Selected Channel.
Fader Banking Controls
Bank A–D
Banks the Input strips. Up to four banks (A through
D) can be used to access up to 48 inputs from the 16 Input
fader strips. Bank A is channels 1–16, Bank B is channels
17–32, and so on.
FX Returns
Banks FX Return channels 1–8 to Input fader strips
1–8.
GEQ (Graphic EQ)
Banks bands of graphic EQ to the faders.

tion, see Chapter 18, “EQ.”
Global Modifier Switches
To the left of the Bank A–D switches are the global modifier
switches.
Multi-Select
(Shift) Lets you select multiple channels, and lets
you select multiple items in lists.
Default
(Alt) Lets you reset a parameter, section, or channel to
default values. This switch also enables certain modes such as
Show VCA Members mode.

(Ctrl) Lets you adjust rotary encoders with greater resolu-
tion for finer control, or to select non-adjacent items in lists.
User
This switch is reserved for future use.
For examples of these switches in use, see “Global Modifier
Switches” on page 29.
Input fader banking and assignment switches
The faders can be moved even when they do not sense a
touch. This allows use of the faders while wearing gloves,
and also lets you “throw” a fader and have it stay where it
lands (not snap back to where it was last touched).
