Channel Mapping

The Channel Mapping page displays the cross-point grid for each Source Group/Output Destination 
selection. Individual cross-points can be selected/deselected or level trimmed.

•  The number of rows displayed corresponds to the number of channels in each Source Group
•  An Input Source may be routed to multiple Outputs, 

to assist in the creation of fold-up or Fold-downs

•  Each grid cross-point can be trimmed by clicking and entering a value via a keyboard
•  The Solo-To-Front loudspeaker can be routed to only one Output Channel

Adding channels (1–12) to the channels already in a source is non-destructive and will not change the routing. 
However, if the user changes from a 12 channel Source Group to a 10 channel Source Group, then the mix 
coefficients for channels 11 and 12 would be deleted – requiring them to be set up again if those channels were 
subsequently reinstated.

Channels Remaining in Mixer

A maximum of 32 channels are available. The number of channels remaining is shown above the 
Source Group buttons. 

Talkback Channels may be reallocated to allow for additional group channels.
