FIG 7 - AUX 1 SEND LEVELS ON BUS CONTRIBUTION ROUTING SCREEN
FIG 8 - AUX 1 SEND LEVELS ON BUS CONTRIBUTION ROUTING SCREEN
Fig 6 on the previous page shows the
bus contribution screen when an auxiliary
bus is selected note there are some
extra controls in the auxiliary contribution
area that allow either the normal ‘AUX
ROUTING’ displays to appear on the
fader assign buttons or by selecting ‘AUX
SEND LEVELS’ the user can control the
aux send levels from the faders for the
selected auxiliary bus.
Aux Sends on Faders
Fig 7 above right shows the bus
contribution screen when an auxiliary bus
is selected in ‘Aux Send Levels’ mode,
pressing this button puts all the selected
auxiliary send levels (in this case Aux 1)
from the contributing paths onto their
faders, as shown in Fig 8 right.
When an Aux is selected, the faders will
change from displaying their channel or
group path level, to showing the relevant
send level from that channel or group
to the selected destination. See Fig 8:-
faders 2A, 4A, 7B and 8B for examples
of this. (Note:- When viewing bus
contribution to Mains, Groups, Tracks or
Mix minus, the faders will always display
the channel or group path level and the
‘Fader=Aux send’ message is removed
from the fader display).
If the channel or group path on a fader is
not routed to the selected destination, or
no valid path exists the fader will move to
the off position and have no contribution
to the selected destination. Also the path
type indicator will extinguish. See Fig 8:
faders 1A, 3A, 5A and 6B for examples
of this.
An alternate graphic appears in the
centre of the fader displays, to indicate to
the user that the faders are showing the
send levels, not path levels. This is the
‘Fader=Aux send’ message.
The fader display will also show the
routing and the send position of the
sources contributing to that bus.
Access AFL in Contribution Mode
When in contribution mode any auxiliary,
track or group bus can be AFLd by
switching on the AFL Selected Aux, Track
and/or Group slider and pressing the
required bus on the screen. This AFL
behaves like any other normal AFL.
It can be turned off manually on the
BUSES & OUTPUTS focus window, or
cancelled globally using the APFL clear
button, it follows AFL level controls, and
other AFLs may be activated before or
after this one.
