4. Initial Setting
When you first power up the VM04, the LCD Display will show the following initial setting.
Character section of the LCD Display
It will show <FOSTEX>, <VM04> then,
“Init.Mix”.
Level display
Channel 1 to 4 will indicate the incoming signal
level at the pre-fader position, i.e., it shows the
level regardless of the INPUT Fader setting.
Input channels 1 and 2 have a TRIM
potentiometer (pot) to adjust the gain to cater
for a small signal input such as a MIC. You can
set the appropriate TRIM pot position by
watching the level indicator.
Channels L and R will indicate the outgoing
signal levels at the STEREO OUT L and R
respectively. But, no level indication will be
displayed because you have not yet raised the
MASTER Fader at this stage.
VIEW display
This will show each input channel
setting such as PAN, EQ,
EFFECT SEND and EFFECT
PRE/POST, which you can
choose by pressing the VIEW
key. The setting is also displayed
on the VIEW Status Indicator. In
the initial setting, PAN will be
displayed in the middle of the bar-
graph by two illuminated dots.
See CHANNEL EDIT MODE
(page 15).
Channel Fader display
This section will numerically
indicate the INPUT Fader
position of the channel you
choose in the CHANNEL
EDIT MODE on a range
from 0 to 99. But, there will
be no numbers showing at
the initial setting. See
CHANNEL EDIT MODE
(page 15).
Master Fader display
This part will numerically indicate the
Master Fader position on a range from
00 to 99. The initial setting will show as

instructions in Item 2-3. RESET.

-10dBV nominal signal level is going out, the channel L and
R level meter will indicate -12dB on the scale.

pre-set by the manufacture. You cannot alter this setting.
