Note that what you see varies depending on whether you select
an Input, Output or control channel such as a VCA:
1.
Press
SEL
on a VCA fader (yellow ID):
On a VCA there is no processing so the only information shown
is the channel type (
VCA1
) and main level (
-5.4dB
):
2.
Press
SEL
on an Input fader (blue ID):
The channel type updates to
IN
, and the label area shows the
user label of the input patched to the channel (e.g.
DIO1
):
The display now shows all the parameters available for the
Input channel. Buttons highlighted in yellow are on; those in
black are off. In our example, both the
COMPRESSOR
and
EQUALIZER
are turned on.
Push-button parameters, such as
48V
, and rotary controls, such
as
Gain
, can be adjusted from the display as well as the
console surface. See Page 73.
Tabs in the middle of the display are used to show different sets
of processing. For example, on an input channel which has an
insert device assigned you can tab between:
•
Channel
processing – the Compressor, Gate and
Parametric EQ available on all 104 input paths.
•
Insert Pre
– processing which has been inserted pre-
fader. This could be an external device or an internal
effects bay.
