The PAN Display
The
PAN
display provides an overview of bus assignments to
Auxes, Groups and Masters. The display shows where a
channel is assigned, and whether the assignment is pre-fader,
post-fader or independent of channel panning. Matrix
assignments are not included as they cannot be switched pre-
fader, post-fader, etc.
The display works slightly differently depending on whether you
have an input channel or output channel selected when you
open the display; let’s look at an example of each:
Interrogating Assignments from an Input Channel
1.
Press
SEL
on an Input channel.
The SEL button and Label on the input should be flashing.
2.
Open the
PAN
display by pressing the
Pre/Pan
button
on the UTILITIES panel.
The display shows assignments from the selected input channel
(e.g. Lead) to every bus controlled from the DESK (Faders):
Above we have 3 Groups, a stereo Master and 10 Auxes
available, and our Input is assigned (
ON
) to a Group, the
Master and an Aux. No other options are selected (
PREFADER
and
INDEPENDENT
are off) so this means that the send is
Post-fader and will follow the channel Pan position.
Notice how the faders within the
PAN
display are colour coded
to help you separate Groups from Auxes from Masters.
Also notice that the bus assignment options vary depending on
the type of bus – for example, the Master can
only
be assigned
ON
/off (PREFADER and INDEPENDENT are not available).
