Ganged Parameters
In some cases there are multiple, related parameters that
are usually adjusted together. To make such "mass
adjustments" easy, a feature exists that
gangs
parameters
together. The
outputs
menu page in the
SETUP
area
contains a good example of ganged parameters. The
purpose of this menu page is to assign signals to the
AES/EBU digital outputs. Such assignments are
typically made in quad or stereo gangs. So, all four parameters are initially ganged
together. Spin the
KNOB
and all four values change.
Now, let’s say you only want to change the assignments
to
DIG1
and
DIG2
. Press the
DOWN CURSOR
key
to
"un-gang"
DIG3
and
DIG4
. Now spin the
KNOB;
only
the values for
DIG1
and
DIG2
change.
Going further, let’s say you only want to change the value of
DIG1
. Again, press the
DOWN CURSOR
key to "un-gang"
DIG2
. Now, spin the
KNOB -
only the value of
DIG1
changes. Press the
DOWN CURSOR
key repeatedly to cycle through the various gang
possibilities: next
DIG2
alone is selected, then
DIG3
and
DIG4
are ganged together, then
DIG3
is alone, then
DIG4
is alone, and lastly we arrive at our starting point - all four
parameters are ganged together. Gangs are much easier to use than to describe, so take a
minute and play with the gangs on this menu page. You will find gangs sprinkled liberally
throughout the H8000FW as their presence facilitates many tasks.
Entering or Changing Text
In some menus, it will be necessary to enter or change
text. For example, you will often change text when
saving a new program. The method by which this is
done is straightforward, albeit a bit tedious
. To play along,
go to the
PROGRAM
area and press the
<Save as>
SOFT KEY.
(You may have to press the
PROGRAM
key a second time
to see it.) Move the cursor over the
rename
field and press
SELECT
.
Here’s how it works:
•
The upper-left portion of the display contains the text that’s being changed. Here
we’ve entered "I Can Type Fas..." - we’re not quite done.
•
The
CURSOR
keys take you around the virtual keyboard.
