Main Bus Center Divergence Options
When the Main busses are set to L–C–R (Left-Center-Right)
mode, the Center Divergence setting determines amount of
center-panned signal sent to the center output.
When Center Divergence is set to 100%, a channel panned
to center is sent to the center output only.
When Center Divergence is set to 0%, a channel panned to
center is sent equally to the left and right outputs only (phan-
tom center).
A Center Divergence setting between 0% and 100% sends a
center-panned channel to the left, center, and right outputs
with the center channel more prominent as the value in-
creases towards 100%.
To set Center Divergence:
1
Go the
Options > Busses
tab.
2
In the Panning section, click in the
Center Divergence
field
and drag up/down to increase/decrease the value (or type in a
new value).
3
Press Enter or Return on your keyboard to confirm the set-
ting.
Main Bus Automatic Delay Compensation
VENUE systems automatically compensate for delays incurred
by the use of Groups and insertion of plug-ins in the signal
path to the Main busses. Delays are automatically applied to
signals arriving at the Main busses from multiple destinations
to maintain the proper time alignment.
Monitoring the Main Mix
You can send the Main mix (the signal present on the Main
busses) to the Monitor bus for routing to the monitor bus for
headphones. See “Sending the Main Mix to the Monitor Bus”
on page 115.
Direct Outputs
All input channels and output buses feature Direct Outputs.
Available destinations for Direct Outputs include:
• Stage audio outputs
• FOH audio outputs
• Pro Tools recording inputs
• Plug-ins
Each output destination may be fed by only one Direct Output
signal (multiple Direct Output signals cannot be routed to a
single output).
To route a channel or bus to a Direct Output:
1
Target the channel or bus you want to route to a Direct Out-
put by pressing its Select switch.
2
In the Directs page of the Patchbay, click the tab for the
channel or bus type you are routing.
3
Click in the channel grid to route the channel or bus (listed
on the left) to an available output (listed across the top).
4
Select the pickoff point for the Direct Output by clicking the
letter to the right of the channel or bus name and choosing
from the pop-up menu.
5
On the console, press the Channel Control Input switch.
6
Press the Direct Out encoder so that its “On” indicator LED
lights.
7
Turn the Direct Out encoder to set the Direct Output level.
Up to 12 dB of gain can be added to the Direct Output signal.
Direct Output level is displayed in the Selected Channel dis-
play, and controls are provided on-screen in the Patchbay, In-
puts, and Outputs pages.
Direct Output Pickoff Points
The pickoff points for the Direct Output signal are selected in
the Directs page of the Patchbay. The following pickoff points
are available for each type of channel or bus:
