Fader

Mode
Theory
Each fader has 2 DCAs, one for the left
bus and one for the right. A 6-input sum/
selector feeds each DCA. The Aux Send mode
determines how the fader and Pan/Bal will
control the DCAs and also how each selector
will sum to the DCAs.
For example, let’s say M1 & M2 have been
selected as fader sources. If the MnPan setting
has been set, both selectors will sum M1 & M2
to each DCA. The fader will act as a level controller for both DCAs and the pan
control will add an offset to the two DCAs. If the Stereo setting had been set,
then only M1 would go to the left DCA and M2 to the right.
The net effect is that the fader and Pan/Bal control can be made to operate
many different ways via software control. The engineer operates the controls
in exactly the same way as a standard fader and pan (or balance). Post Upper
Fader (PUF) and Post Lower Fader (PLF) modes are available from
F4 .
1: Locked
Prevents any changes to source or destination routing; mutes the fader.
2: Mn@0dB (Mono at 0dB)
Monos all sources selected, sets the fader at 0dB gain, no pan control.
3: MnInd (Mono Independent)
Monos all sources selected. The fader controls the mono feed to the left
bus and the pan/bal controls the feed to the right bus.
4: MnCPan (Mono Pan Center)
Monos all sources selected. Pan is locked in the exact center position.
5: MnPan (Mono Pan)
Monos all sources selected. Pan control is active.
6: Mono
Monos all sources selected. Pan control is out of circuit. Gain will be 3dB
higher as the pan law is no longer reducing center image by 3dB.
7: Stereo (Stereo Balance)
Odd Sources (M1, L1, L3) feed the left bus, even sources (M2, L2, L4) feed
the right bus. Balance control is active.
8: StCtr (Stereo Center)
As Stereo Balance with balance control locked in the center.
9: StInd (Stereo Independent)
Fader controls level of the odd sources to the left bus, and the pan/bal
controls the level of even sources to the right bus.
10: StRev (Stereo Reverse)
As Stereo Balance but even/odd sources feed the left/right buses
respectively.
11: StCRev (Stereo Center Reverse)
As Stereo Reverse with the balance control locked in the central position.
12: StIRev (Stereo Ind Reverse)
Odd sources feed the right bus via pan/bal which acts as a level control,
even sources feed the left bus via the fader.
