Click on the numeric readout to enter a position percentage: ‘0.0’ is center, entering ‘-50’ pans 50% to
the left, ‘50’ pans 50% to the right, and so on. Stereo and LCR panners follow the standard -3dBu center
pan law.
If your Main mix bus is set to four channels or more, you will see a basic surround panner:
Figure 10.115: Surround Panner with direct assigns
The default position for the surround panner will be at the center of the sound field, with equal signal sent
to the five main program channels. The LFE channel is not routed in the default configuration.
Right-clicking on the surround panner will open a pull-down menu where you can directly assign your mono
input to any speaker feed. To remove a direct-assigned pan and return to the panner UI, click on the panner.
Solo
The Solo button turns yellow when engaged.
In Solo-In-Place mode, the 3d Mixer will only pass signal for channels that have the solo button engaged.
In PFL/AFL modes, the Solo'd signal is passed to the Solo bus, where it is routed to the Monitor Controller
and Cue Controllers per the rules set by menu bar “Monitors”: ‘Monitor Controller Slaves to PFL/AFL’, and
the hamburger menu settings of each individual Cue.
Solo'ing a bus passes the signal from all input and bus strips feeding the solo'd bus, with all panning and
DSP processing from the source strips intact.
•
⌘
(Command)-click will “exclusively solo” your selected input strip. In other words, command-click-
ing any solo button will clear all solos in the Mixer except for the solo you click on. This is especially
useful for quickly comparing individual mixer strips isolated from the full mix.
•
⌥
(Option)-click on any engaged solo button will toggle all solos in the Mixer. You can use this to
clear all solos on the bus. Note that Option-clicking a bus solo will toggle that bus strip and all the
Input strips solos.
•
⇧
(Shift)-click solo will add strips to the current selection, or remove them if already active.
• Click on a Solo button, hold, and drag left or right to sweep-toggle Solo buttons across your mixer,
regardless of strip type.
Mute
When
Mute
is engaged signal in the associated strip is muted at the mixer. This does not affect the signal
at the direct outs or pre-fader sends. The mute button turns blue when engaged.
Click-hold-and-drag left or right to sweep-toggle Mute buttons across your mixer, regardless of strip type.
Fader Gain display
The numeric
Fader Gain
displays the channel gain level in dB. Click in the readout display to set the Fader
level numerically by dB.
