To route the post-fader channel signal to a Main bus, press the MAIN route key below
the function switches (Figure 8-17). This assigns the first eight Main sections that have
been defined in eMix to the knobset (Figure 8-19). Press the
X
key to display additional
Main Routing pages if there are more than eight.
• The upper switch to the left of each knob allows changing the automation
mode. Hold the
Wave key down and press the switch to cycle through the
modes.
• The lower switch to the left of the knob assigns that section.
• The knob center switch brings the individual busses of that main section to the
knobset.
Assignments and pan settings are remembered when routing is toggled off and on.
When an individual section is assigned to the knobset, the lower switch to the left of the
knob toggles that bus on/off.
Press the Pan to: key to switch Pan in/out for the Main sections. This key is active only
when accessing the Main or Group Bus routing pages. The key lights dimly in other
modes to show that Pan is active in Main and/or Group routing. The
MAIN route key
also lights dimly in other modes to show that channel is assigned to one or more busses.
8.5.3 Mix Minus
Each channel has a mix minus output that can be used to send a unique feed to an an-
nouncer. The Mix Minus Reference Bus is a single dedicated mono mix minus bus.
The Mix Minus functions are found on the last page of the GRP routing knobset (Figure
8-20). A channel is routed to the mix minus bus by pressing the Bus key. Pressing the
Mix- key creates a feed for an announcer’s ear piece on that channel’s mix minus out-
put. The channel’s signal is subtracted from the mix minus bus, allowing the announcer
to hear all voices on the bus except their own.
The signal from the channel to the mix minus system can be set pre or post fader using
the
Pre key.
There is a gain control just before the Mix Minus Output. This is controlled from the
Mix- knob.
