Configuring User Inputs
You can assign up to eight User Inputs to be available globally
to the Matrix mixers.
Any of the eight User Inputs defined for the Matrix can be as-

User Inputs are assigned for the Matrix from the User Assign
panel of the Matrix main page.
To configure the User Inputs for a Matrix mixer:

Go to the Outputs page and click a
Matrix
mixer to navigate
to that mixer page.

Click the
User Assign
button to display the User Assign
panel.

For any of the eight available User Inputs, click the
on-screen
Source
pop-up menu and select an available source.
Choices include Channels, FX Returns, Stage and FOH audio
sources, and FWx Pro Tools record/playback options.
